The Mischievous Demon King and Her White-Robed Master

My name is Ruan Qiu.

My ancestors included a great cultivator who ascended and left behind a priceless treasure.

But a thousand years later, my family fell into decline.

Our treasure was stolen, and our clan was slaughtered.

I am the Ruan family's last surviving descendant.

To avenge my family,

I knelt before the Demon King's hall for fifty years.

My filial devotion moved the heavens,

so the Demon King took me as his adopted daughter and taught me demonic arts.

I braved seas of fire and climbed snowy mountains. I once ruled from on high, and I once fell from grace and was beaten to a pulp.

In short, I studied and trained hard for a hundred years, enduring inhuman torment.

At last, my demonic arts were perfected, and I set out confidently to take my revenge.

Just as I was about to slaughter them all, an old hag latched onto me:

Taiqing, the Holy Mother Peak Master of the Supreme Sect, whose true form is a thousand-year-old white lotus.

She insists that I am her tribulation,

and wants to take me as her disciple.

Hmph! You want to be my master? Not a chance!

But the old hag clings to me every day,

chattering nonstop, more relentlessly than a monk chanting sutras.

She even stops me from killing and burning my way through my princess's revenge plan.

Heh, do you think I'll just give in?

No. I seized my chance and killed the dog of a sect leader from the Daohua Sect right in front of her.

White robes, blood staining half the front.

The old hag trembled with rage.

I shouted at her arrogantly, "You think you can control me? Dream on! Go ahead and kill me if you can!"

Today triumphant, tomorrow in misery.

For example, today is the three-thousand-six-hundredth time I've been punished with copying the Dao De Jing,

because yesterday, while the old hag wasn't looking, I snuck off and wiped out the Di family.

Damn it, when will the old hag become as wicked as I am?

I'm going to wear out my hand copying this book!

I'll pay ten thousand top-grade spirit stones

to anyone who can offer me a good solution. A handsome reward awaits.

She can actually bloom?

Call me Master one more time, and bloom for me!

As for making me a good person, that's not entirely out of the question...

Many years later, at a gathering of the four great demon lords of the Spirit Realm, the young lady of the Tongbao Trading House asked Ruan Qiu with a gossipy look, "I heard you and Perfected Lord Taiqing are together now? So, you two... who's in charge?"

"Do you even have to ask? Master, hit her with lightning! Teach her a lesson!"

A moment later, Ruan Qiu stood there with her hair blown into an afro, giving her friend a sweetly menacing smile. "See? I tell her to make lightning, and she doesn't dare make it rain!"

A few quick notes about this story:

1. The main story is not told in first person.

2. This is my take on cultivation, pure beginner-level stuff. Put down that hand you're raising to hit me! Running away with a pot on my head

3. You love me, I love you. If you don't like it, just leave, and don't come at me.

Adding this to my upcoming stories: "Did I Do Anything Wrong by Searching for True Love in the Hehuan Sect?" Synopsis:

[The Hehuan Sect's perennial bottom-ranked, socially anxious, struggling senior sister x the passionate genius junior sister from the Ruthless Sect, who turns dark, domineering, and heartless]

[The main story is told in third person!]

Socially anxious, but in the Hehuan Sect...

That's right, I'm the Hehuan Sect's only failing student!

Then the elder nearly knocked my head off,

ordering me to reach the Nascent Soul stage as soon as possible!

And he pointed me toward a path to the heavens: the Ruthless Sect!

The Ruthless Sect is the Hehuan Sect's most potent tonic!

I was getting excited.

I never expected that the Ruthless Sect's newly promoted genius junior sister

was also on her way to find me.

After all, the Hehuan Sect is famous for helping people overcome their emotional trials!

When we met, my righteous junior sister not only stole my line:

"You're seducing me!"

She also criticized me:

"How come you don't know how to do anything?"

"If you don't do anything, how am I supposed to overcome my emotional trial, reach the Great Dao, and ascend?"

"Are you any good at all?"

Y-you're the one who's no good!

Even a failing student has her dignity, okay?!

In the end, I successfully shattered her Dao heart. Just as I was preparing to bow out, I discovered in horror that there was no escape...

"Junior sister, don't be like this!"

"You walk your path of ruthlessness, and I'll cross my bridge of passion!"

"Shh! If you don't know how to talk, senior sister, you can stay quiet forever..."

Y-you're joking, right?

Junior sister, say something!

Quick, tell me you're the righteous path of this world, not the villain in front of me, cackling coldly like that!!!
