After I Transmigrated Into a Book as the Male Lead's Villainous Master, I Faked My Death

[Black on the Inside, Devoted Puppy Disciple] X [Carefree, Kind, and Easygoing Master] After Shen Shuangshuang died, she was reborn into a novel: a male-led, no-romance cultivation story where she became the villainous master. Before the male lead, Mu Yiheng, was even born, she focused solely on cultivation. She reached the Golden Core stage as a teenager and the Mahayana stage by the time she was fifty, becoming a peerless sword cultivator and an elder of her sect. A hundred years later, Shen Shuangshuang was nearly invincible and found life long and dull. So she decided to take Mu Yiheng as her disciple and raise him for fun. At the Cloud Immortal Sect's disciple-acceptance ceremony, Shen Shuangshuang stood in spotless white robes and said calmly, "I can take you as my disciple. From now on, I'll do my duty as your master and teach and look after you." "But I have one condition: you must always respect your master and obey my instructions." Mu Yiheng immediately performed the formal ceremony. "This disciple will heed your teachings, Master." * After taking him in, Shen Shuangshuang did indeed fulfill her duty to teach him. And she did look after him, though things ended up the other way around. Shen the Useless, Shen the Slacker: Before I took him in, I never expected this kid to be so good at taking care of people. Later, Mu Yiheng's protagonist halo emerged, and his dragon bloodline awakened. His cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds, and he no longer needed much guidance from Shen Shuangshuang. Shen Shuangshuang stopped worrying herself over him and was happy to take it easy, offering him the occasional compliment at most. "My disciple really is clever." "My disciple is so impressive." Shen Shuangshuang: I picked a good disciple. But she had no idea that, time and again, in the stillness of the night beneath a hazy moon, her beloved disciple would stand beside her bed, remembering his past life and unconsciously whispering her name. * Later, Shen Shuangshuang suffered backlash from a formation. Tortured until she was hardly recognizable, she felt that it would be better to die than go on living. But Mu Yiheng held her captive in his arms, his eyes bloodshot. "I won't let you. I won't..." After enduring so much torment, Shen Shuangshuang still decided to leave. As she fell from the cliff, memories of her past life suddenly came back to her. She smiled sadly through her tears. "In this life and the last, I have wronged you." "I know my life may not be enough to make up for it. You're always so forgiving, my disciple, so please bear with me." * She thought she had managed to leave, but for some reason her soul was trapped inside the spirit-pet cat Mu Yiheng kept. Unable to speak, she was forced to roll around, act cute, and meow every day, until she saw Mu Yiheng enter, his gaze tender and entranced, carrying her body in his arms. Shen Shuangshuang: [Forcing a smile] Tips: 1. The story spans past and present lives. The male lead gradually recovers his memories of his past life. 2. In their past lives, he was a young crown prince and she was his female imperial tutor. This is a long story. 3. The male lead is an exemplary gentleman, a devoted puppy with possessive tendencies. Content warning: The heroine was influenced by her parents, who cared deeply about the world, and is kind by nature, but she is no pushover. The male lead may not seem like a good person, but he will always be loyal to her. Coming soon in the same vein: After I Used and Abandoned the Black-on-the-Inside One When Bai Jiaojiao was young, she knew nothing about love. During a gathering of the immortal sects, she flirted with a down-on-his-luck nobleman's son. He had eyes as deep as pools, exceptional looks and bearing, and was a rare beauty. But she was fickle. As soon as she got what she wanted, she found it boring. She expected Xie Yubai to indulge her in every way, and whenever things weren't to her liking, she would turn cold and walk away. When the gathering ended, Bai Jiaojiao left without a backward glance, speaking coldly. "You're only an illegitimate son of a noble family. We're from different worlds. Let's part ways here." - A hundred years later, the immortal sects gathered again in the Upper Immortal Realm, and Bai Jiaojiao saw Xie Yubai once more. Now he wore flowing white robes, his tall, straight figure like green bamboo. A long sword at his side, he stood among the crowd, his handsome face and gentle smile drawing every eye. - Bai Jiaojiao stood on the terrace, her expression full of disgust. "Young Mistress, do you know him?" "I don't." Just then, the man looked up at her. Bai Jiaojiao answered coldly and turned to leave. - That night, the maid on duty outside the young mistress's residence jolted awake. She heard Bai Jiaojiao shout things like "Get out!" "You lunatic!" and "You mad dog!" But the doors were sealed with a spell, and the maid couldn't get inside. The hall was dim. Anger had flushed Bai Jiaojiao's pale face red, and her spirit sword, already stained with blood, was pressed to Xie Yubai's neck. Yet Xie Yubai acted as if he didn't notice. He calmly shielded her delicate fingers, his eyes curving into a smile. "You're right, Young Mistress. I'm a mad dog. I only listen to you." - If Bai Jiaojiao had known back then that Xie Yubai, who seemed so radiant and upright, was rotten and dark inside, and exceptionally good at enduring things, she would never have provoked him.
