[Advance previews in my collection: My Love-Brained Disciple Who Dares to Defy His Master (a wife-chasing crematorium) and After Planting a Love Gu, I Became the Demon Lord's Master (a guide to taming a yandere). Their synopses are at the end.]

Synopsis:

Song Qiwu wakes up to find herself inside an old-fashioned, melodramatic fantasy romance novel.

One of the novel's defining features is that the hero and heroine remain devoted to each other despite countless trials and tribulations.

Her assigned mission is to win over the icy male lead, following the original plot.

Song Qiwu: You want me dead?

Compared to the male lead, who is impossible to sway, the more dangerous one to Song Qiwu is the sweet-on-the-outside, dark-on-the-inside second male lead, Li Qingshan.

According to the original story, this seemingly harmless, frail, sickly little lamb will turn against everyone at the end and slaughter half the cultivation world.

And in that catastrophe, Song Qiwu herself will be the first sacrifice, left hanging half-dead from the city gate to dry into a husk.

Song Qiwu: ...

Thinking of what happened to the original character, Song Qiwu lives every day like a quail, but soon realizes that things are getting more and more suspicious.

She's practicing swordsmanship with the male lead when a sword flies past her face and embeds itself in the tree behind her.

Li Qingshan: "My aim was off."

She hands the male lead some water, then turns around to see the person opposite her snap a sparrow's neck.

Li Qingshan: "That was an accident."

She and the male lead fall into a trap, and a huge boulder drops from the sky, knocking him out on the spot.

Li Qingshan: "The wind did it."

Song Qiwu decides to cherish her life and stay away from yanderes, but a line of red text appears before her eyes.

[System: Warning! Mission progress: 0%]

[Penalty commencing: Spend time alone with a randomly selected character]

[Character selected: Li Qingshan]

Song Qiwu: ?!

Looking up, she sees the boy smile, gentle and clear. "It seems like... you've been avoiding me?"

*

Li Qingshan thinks that, to him, Song Qiwu is no different from anyone else.

Until he sees her sacrifice herself with a sword for another man, her soul scattered to the winds.

"Do you really like him that much?" In the dead of night, Li Qingshan murmurs, "Even when you're dying, you're still on his side?"

[Reading Guide]:

1. The heroine has compulsory missions assigned by the System, and there will be plenty of jealousy scenes.

2. At heart, this is a sweet romance. There may be some angst, but it still ends happily. PS: The heroine's soul being scattered in the synopsis is a fake death, a staged death.

3. Before the book goes on sale, updates will follow the site's ranking schedule. Afterward, updates will be daily. If there are no updates, I'll be revising the story instead. The author won't disappear.

My Love-Brained Disciple Who Dares to Defy His Master

[A wife-chasing crematorium, told in the third person]

That year, when apricot blossoms bloomed in a gentle drizzle, I sneaked down the mountain and picked up a cheap disciple.

A disciple is a disciple. Raise him well and he'll do. With his good looks, status, and martial arts skills, my disciple quickly distinguished himself and became the object of every woman in the sect's admiration.

Unfortunately, he kept himself pure, showed no interest in any woman, and spent every day poring over a martial arts manual.

I was pleased.

By chance, I opened the manual and discovered that it was only a cover. Hidden underneath was One Hundred and One Tricks for Winning Over Your Master.

"Don't buy books from street vendors next time," I scolded him quietly.

But my disciple was delighted. His eyes were damp, full of anticipation and nervousness ready to spill over. "Master only blames me for buying a book from a street vendor. Does that mean everything else is allowed...?"

I smiled.

I was delighted too.

In my previous life, a scumbag played me like a fool, then threw me away like trash.

I devoted my life to cultivation so I could outlive him.

And now, his reincarnation is standing right in front of me, telling me, word for word, how deeply and enduringly he loves me.

Reading Guide:

1. A sweet one-on-one romance. If it isn't sweet, you can eat me.

After Planting a Love Gu, I Became the Demon Lord's Master

Synopsis:

Xiang Zhixu is the boldest little demon in the demon realm, constantly stomping on all the things that get the demons worked up.

The demon clan sends her to the demon world as a spy, mostly just to make up the numbers and get rid of a nuisance.

What they don't know is that on her way there, Xiang Zhixu gets hit squarely by a golden core and becomes the... master connected to the Demon Lord by a love gu.

That day, Xiang Zhixu meets the legendary Demon Lord, a madman who kills without mercy and makes the entire Three Realms tremble in fear.

He is tall and slender, with a languid bearing, but his face is hidden behind a mask, impossible to make out.

Xiang Zhixu: This won't do.

To everyone's astonishment, Xiang Zhixu boldly steps forward and lifts the Demon Lord's mysterious veil.

Beneath the mask, the young Demon Lord wears a gloomy expression and a fierce gaze.

For some reason, though, the explosive flick to her forehead turns into a gentle caress, and his cold, "I really want to kill you," has its key word, "kill," automatically filtered out, becoming an affectionate, "I really miss you."

Demon Lord: ?

Xiang Zhixu: !

Reading Guide:
