Transmigrating into a Book: The Villainous Sect Leader (Cultivation)

After dying, Xiao Ran transmigrates into a cultivation novel as the major villain, a traitorous disciple who turns against his master.

He is a dignified, respectable Sect Master with an immortal bearing.

On the surface, this villainous Sect Master is noble and refined. In truth, he is ruthless and vicious. To claim the Sect Master’s position, he secretly sabotaged his Sword Immortal master, a peerless genius, and caused his death. For the sake of profit, he tricked a friend who trusted him into a secret realm and murdered him.

This hypocritical Sect Master, a fraud who deceived the world and committed every manner of evil, was finally exposed when the protagonist joined the sect and accidentally discovered his secret. Only then did the world learn the truth.

His end was, of course, disgrace and death, his cultivation destroyed.

Now, at the very beginning of the story, Xiao Ran has transmigrated into the role of the Sword Immortal’s first disciple, the revered senior brother of the sect. The first thing the System asks him to do is ambush and eliminate his Sword Immortal master.

Xiao Ran, from a peaceful society, doesn’t want to kill anyone. What can he do? Naturally, he fakes his master’s death and takes care of everything, secretly locking him away.

It isn’t until Xiao Ran realizes he’s accumulating more and more prisoners that he begins to suspect this could be a serious problem.

More importantly, why are all the people he’s imprisoned fighting each other? Σ(⊙▽⊙"a
