How Could My Partner, Whom I Won Over, Be the Villain?

[Pre-release: "He Told Me to Become the God of the Weird"] See below

Half of the current demonic world belongs to Fu Ying.

The other half belongs to the Hall of Eternal Calamity, her sworn enemy of a thousand years.

Fu Ying was born cursed. The only way to break the curse is to cultivate together with someone of supreme purity.

So she infiltrates an immortal sect and ensnares its ethereal, virtuous senior disciple, Yan Xunqing.

The senior disciple is a model for the entire sect, and he takes meticulous care of her, his "junior sister."

Fu Ying plays her cards one step at a time, watching him gradually fall for her, drowning in her faint, elusive affection.

She thought she was heartless, until one day Yan Xunqing returned to her drenched in blood. Weak but resolute, he said:

"It was only a group of corrupted demons... Ying'er, I won't let any danger come near you."

For the first time, she felt guilty.

She thought that once they finished cultivating together, she would spare his life.

But before she could achieve her goal, Fu Ying's identity was exposed.

As the immortal sect closed in, Yan Xunqing suddenly rushed over and carried her away. When she opened her eyes again, she was in the heart of her enemy's stronghold, the Hall of Eternal Calamity.

The once cool and gentle immortal now had a steely gaze. He pinned her injured body against the wall.

"A thousand years ago, you caused countless deaths and injuries among my people. And now you come to deceive me again?!"

Fu Ying stared at the anguish in his eyes and froze.

How could she not see that he was a spy, too?

-

Trapped in the Hall of Eternal Calamity for days, Fu Ying felt as though she were meeting Yan Xunqing for the first time.

On one hand, he glared at her with eyes red from hatred, his whole being steeped in malice.

"How many years will it take to atone for all your sins?"

On the other, he clung to her like a madman, their passionate nights without end.

"I am the only one you can rely on, Ying'er... I want you to be unable to leave me ever again..."

A snake's tail coiled around her body. The man's golden eyes roiled with dark currents.

Fu Ying's mind was hazy, and only two thoughts remained.

First, so much for supreme purity. He was a lunatic.

Second, she had to get out of here and find someone else, fast!

#A seemingly virtuous demoness x a seemingly aloof demon#

#Both undercover, both hiding their true nature# #Eight hundred schemes apiece#

[Pre-release: "He Told Me to Become the God of the Weird"]

Fifty years ago, Blue Star began suffering successive invasions by strange creatures from beyond this world, and a small number of humans awakened supernatural abilities.

Tan Sanxian spent more than a decade pretending to be an ordinary person, but in her sophomore year of college, an organization of ability users came looking for her.

They invited her to help eliminate the weird creatures and protect Blue Star's civilization.

At the same time, a line of text formed from red mist appeared before her eyes, accompanied by a deep, indistinct whisper:

[Go and become the Lord of the Weird.]

Should she be a human guardian who exterminates the weird, or a deity worshipped by them? That's a good question.

Tan Sanxian chose both.

Countless weird races exist beyond the world. They follow different gods and strive to carry out the paths those gods have shown them.

But the divine path inherited by Tan Sanxian involves forcibly stamping the weird with the mark of faith and making them swear allegiance to her.

The obedient weird become her servants. The disobedient ones get butchered and turned into supplements. That's the virtue of a god.

While she was with the organization of ability users, those around her called her a genius. The organization's leader valued her immensely and granted her extraordinary privileges.

But later, after stumbling upon the secrets of the organization's higher-ups, she defected. Then, after revealing her ability to control the weird, she became a wanted criminal nationwide.

"Tan Sanxian, you have secretly raised weird creatures, violating a high-risk taboo. If you immediately dispose of every one of them and apologize in public, the organization can give you a chance to reform!"

Confess? Could they please not get in the way of her mission to protect humanity?

Tan Sanxian set up on her own, gathering scattered weird creatures from across the country and gradually expanding her divine domain.

The little blob of mud she first recruited grew powerful enough to corrode an entire city. The pitch-black shadow monster could swallow a skyscraper whole.

When humanity's homeland was under a massive invasion and the organization of ability users was routed, Tan Sanxian, the wanted criminal who had disappeared for ages, suddenly appeared on a global livestream.

People saw her standing against the invading creatures, wind whipping around her, with over a hundred nightmare-inducing monsters behind her. Her lips curled up, and her eyes brimmed with murderous intent.

"Looks like it's my turn to step in."

"Kids, time to feast."
