Online Dating with the Great Villain in a Xianxia World

Warning!!!! Be careful with online relationships, and watch out for scammers.

Chen Lige transmigrated into a cannon-fodder passerby in an old-school power-leveling novel from a male-oriented web-novel site. She was nothing but background scenery, destined to die while fighting the demons as a righteous cultivator during the coming chaos.

But that would happen far in the future. The climactic battle and her death were still hundreds of years away. Right now, Chen Lige's biggest worries were her medicinal herbs exam and her immortal sword, which she could never steer properly while flying...

The thing was, Elder Li, who taught medicinal herbs, constantly made students copy out passages a hundred times, while Daojun Gu, who taught sword-flying, often punished students physically.

At Xuan Sect, where talented people were everywhere, Chen Lige, a complete academic underachiever in her previous life, was having a really hard time.

Oh no, when would this awful culture of academic competition ever end!

Luckily, she had a god-tier cheat: her online partner, a gold-medal tutor who was a master of all ten disciplines.

They could tutor her before exams and teach her cultivation, helping Chen Lige stand out at Xuan Sect, where prodigies were everywhere, and compete for a place in the top three.

Of course, they were also thoughtful and considerate. They sent gifts for her birthday and the Qixi Festival, never missed a single one of the twenty-four solar terms, and checked in on her with warmth and care every day.

The only shame was that they always refused to meet, saying they lived far away and couldn't make it over just yet.

Chen Lige was frustrated, but what frustrated her more was that she still hadn't finished the homework her elders assigned. She could only bend her head over her writing, with no time to tell her partner that she didn't really care about looks and they didn't need to hide from her.

Chen Lige, who was growing suspicious because her online partner kept putting off meeting her, had no idea that they really couldn't come to her.

He was being held beneath the Abyss.

Ji Chen was a born calamity whom everyone wanted dead. He had once cultivated the immortal way and become the most brilliant genius in the cultivation world in tens of thousands of years. Unfortunately, he was the reincarnation of the Demon Venerable. In the end, he fell to demonic cultivation, unleashing a reign of bloodshed across the land before being sealed in the Abyss alongside the demon race.

Thousands of years of imprisonment had left the entire demon race lifeless.

Then, one day, the demon generals in the Abyss suddenly noticed that their Demon Venerable had started talking to himself about immortal techniques. For a while, they suspected that the long imprisonment had finally driven him mad.

But later, the expression on the Demon Venerable's face grew gentler and gentler, and he even began treating them kindly instead of flying into unpredictable rages.

Spring had even come to the blood-soaked, gloomy Abyss. Delicate flowers blossomed in the shadows, warm and soft.
