After Mistaking the Villain, I Became the Target of a Sweet-on-the-Outside, Dark-on-the-Inside Schemer

Jiang Shiyue transmigrates as the master in a master-disciple novel. Her own rebellious disciple is fated to start an illicit relationship with her, imprison and humiliate her in every way, then kill her with a single sword strike.

To keep the plot from playing her, she carefully chooses a disciple who could never possibly be a villain.

He's perfect in every way, except that sometimes he looks at her with a burning, profound gaze... Perhaps he's just too "devoted" to his master?

But years later, the disciple, who once seemed as pure and noble as moonlight, locks her at his side.

Darkness stains his beautiful eyes. "Master, where else do you think you can run?"

Jiang Shiyue suddenly realizes she may have... mistaken who the villain was. Her disciple is the one who's good on the outside and evil within!

SOS, is it still too late to run?

The disciples of Tai Xuan Sect are in an uproar. Their Seventh Peak Lord has, for the first time ever, taken on a disciple.

But...

The Second Senior Brother only received a bamboo plant from the Seventh Peak Lord, but the next day the flower bed he'd worked so hard to grow had been dug up.

The Third Senior Brother only received a cup of tea handed to him by the Seventh Peak Lord, but after he went back, his hand was poisoned and he was bedridden for three days.

The youngest junior brother had it worst. The Seventh Peak Lord praised him as her ideal type, and someone else's murderous glare nearly pierced him to death...

And yet the Seventh Peak Lord still praises her own disciple for being so respectful to his elders.

All the disciples of Tai Xuan: Wah, are you blind? Your disciple is terrifying!

On the surface, he is obedient. In truth, he is ruthless, gloomy, and twisted.

His arrival at Tai Xuan was part of a scheme, and he fooled everyone.

Even the lofty master.

But later, one quiet, deserted night,

he catches sight of his lofty master bathing. Her shoulder above the pool is like moonlight.

The black-hearted youth freezes for a long while.

After that, he can never forget that sliver of moonlight.

[A sinister, scheming male lead x a radiant heroine]

Reading guide

1. The male lead is gloomy and violent early on, pretending to be a harmless little rabbit. Later, he stops at nothing to claim the heroine.

2. Romance and plot are equally important. The setting is entirely the author's own.

Blurb:

When Tan Xiao was reading The Beloved Little Junior Sister, she felt the sorriest for Su He, the cannon-fodder second female lead.

Su He was brought back to the sect at thirteen. Her masters doted on her, and the entire sect treated her like a treasure.

But one day, her senior brother demanded that she cut out her spiritual bones alive for the little junior sister.

It turned out she wasn't the sect's beloved darling at all. She was just a vessel raised for the little junior sister, to be thrown away once she had served her purpose.

By a stroke of bad luck, Tan Xiao transmigrates into the role of this cannon-fodder substitute. She has three choices:

1. Be sacrificed to Heaven and have her soul destroyed.

2. Be offered as a sacrifice to a demon snake, with her fate unknown.

3. Let the little junior sister cut out her spiritual bones while she is alive, and do so without complaint.

What kind of deadly situation is this?

So, in a fit of anger, she chooses option four:

Win over the arrogant, deranged ancestor in the mountain behind the sect. Anyone who dares make life hard for her will have to answer to him.

She only wants to scrape by, but before she knows it, the ancestor has carried her to success.

The eldest senior brother, who wanted to cut out her spiritual bones, is forced to kneel and apologize to her.

The little junior sister, who wanted her dead, begs for forgiveness, battered and bloody.

The master, who never treated his disciples equally, says she is the sect's pride...

Faced with all this, she just wants to cling to the big shot's leg.

Then one day, she accidentally trespasses in the pool where the ancestor is bathing.

And thrashing about in the water is... a thick, glossy black snake tail...

"Running away?"

Coil after coil of his powerful body wraps around her. His golden, blazing eyes fix on her coldly, as if he's about to tear her apart and swallow her whole.
