The Passerby I Courted Is an Obsessive Tycoon

Yu Fei transmigrated into a xianxia novel as the villainess. Beautiful and seductive, she revels in worldly pleasures and is branded a wicked woman by everyone, who would happily kill her on sight.

According to the plot, she infiltrates a righteous sect, posing as an utterly ordinary outer-sect junior sister. Her favorite pastime is watching the drama unfold and shipping the male and female leads.

Unfortunately, the cultivation art she practices belongs to the Dual Cultivation Path, and she must cultivate with someone else to improve her strength. To protect herself when the later events in the story unfold, she has no choice but to find a cultivation partner.

She sets her sights on an immortal master who keeps the sect's scripture library clean.

He is handsome and refined, with an otherworldly bearing, like a cool breeze beneath the moon, untouched by worldly dust.

Whenever she shows up, he is like an NPC who respawns in the same spot: always smiling as he quietly listens to her, his cool, composed expression unchanged, and even offering advice when she runs into trouble with her cultivation.

As a wicked woman, Yu Fei is naturally attracted to his type. And since he is an unnamed passerby in the original story, using him as her cultivation partner won't get her caught up in any plot-driven death traps. So she begins deliberately seducing him.

She has all sorts of flashy tricks up her sleeve, and after spending enough time together, she actually gets him to let down his guard and do something that goes against his Daoist principles.

Then she finishes her part in the story, tears off her secret identity, and stages a dramatic fake death. She dies in his arms, pierced by countless arrows, her eyes still open.

From then on, Sword Venerable Qinggui falls to the demonic path overnight.

Some say that he was once a cultivator of the Path of Unfeeling. His cultivation was utterly ruined, and righteous cultivators joined forces to hunt him down. After enduring unimaginable torment, he finally returned to the mortal world from the Netherworld Abyss.

Others say that he brutally subdued the demon clans and seized the throne as Lord of the Demon Realm. All beings across the six realms trembled in fear, while the righteous cultivators who had once offended him began vanishing without a trace, one after another.

Hearing the rumors, Yu Fei thinks she must have driven him to demonic cultivation and offended him terribly. Being tortured and killed would be the least she could expect. But she never imagined this:

In a cold, dark dungeon, a silver-haired man wearing a ghost mask kneels before her. He takes hold of her pale ankle, bound in shackles, then slowly removes his mask, revealing a face of unparalleled beauty.

There is no resentment in his eyes, only a composure made extreme by obsession. Then he gently bows his head and kisses the tip of her foot.
