Blurb: Baili Dantai transmigrates into a broken xianxia cultivation novel. The male lead was supposed to save all living beings, but he turns evil in the end and almost wipes them all out.
As a background character who barely appears in the story, Baili Dantai just wants to live a peaceful life.
To guide the male lead toward goodness and stop him from destroying the cultivation world, Baili Dantai simply takes him as a disciple and shelters him under his wing.

Seeing the grown-up male lead turn into the refined, benevolent person he'd always hoped for, Baili Dantai wipes away a tear of relief. At last, he doesn't have to worry about the male lead turning evil, and can live in peace.
Not long after, during the sect tournament, Baili Dantai sees the usually proper and gentle male lead on the dueling platform. Holding a silver sword, he sends flying the disciple who had confessed his feelings to Baili Dantai the day before. “My hand slipped. Sorry.”
But there's not a hint of apology in his expression.
Much later, when the supposedly obedient disciple leans over his shoulder, grinding his teeth against Baili Dantai's neck and hoarsely calling him “Master,” Baili Dantai finally realizes that the male lead has already gone off the rails without his knowledge.
Mu Xuechao is cursed with the fate of a solitary star. He's used to being bullied, humiliated, and slandered by others, who avoid him as if he were a snake or a scorpion.
Once again, he's shoved into the forbidden grounds behind the mountain. Mu Xuechao feels utterly numb. Just as he loses all hope in the world, someone breaks through the barrier and comes toward him through the wind and snow.
The person stops in front of Mu Xuechao, takes his hand, and says gently, “Come with me. I'll get you out.”
Later, Mu Xuechao becomes that person's disciple. His master teaches him to tell good from evil, right from wrong, to honor rules and propriety, and to care for all living beings.

People in the cultivation world say Immortal Lord Dantai has taken a fine disciple: proper and courteous, he will become a model of the righteous path and bear the responsibility of protecting all living beings.
Only Mu Xuechao knows that he doesn't care for all living beings. In fact, he is always thinking of destroying a world that has shown him nothing but malice.
But one day, someone crosses through the darkness and the wind and snow to hold out a hand to him. And so his once-hard heart softens.
Your heart is with the world. Mine is with you.
