As the Villain, I Won Over the Male Lead's Master

The title is from the top's perspective, but the story is actually told from the bottom's point of view.

The first few chapters have had edits of varying sizes, with some new scenes added. If you've read them before, feel free to revisit. The story's direction changes substantially in Chapter 18.

Only after he died did Pei Qianyu learn that he was the beloved bottom in an explicit master-disciple novel. He took three disciples in total, and every one of them wanted to drag him down from his pedestal.

The aloof master is too alluring, but what if you can't reach his pedestal? Then tear him down completely.

After being utterly destroyed, Pei Qianyu transmigrated.

He became an aloof beauty in another xianxia world, where a male lead from a typical power-fantasy novel was drooling over him and wanted to turn him into a woman.

Pei Qianyu: "...!!!!"

His last attempt at taking disciples had ended disastrously, but the System insisted he follow the plot: take the male lead as a disciple, serve as his human golden finger, provide him with women, and make sure to secure his position as the main wife.

Pei Qianyu just laughed. Fine, he would follow the plot, but he was swapping out the male lead for someone else.

After a painstaking search, he chose a sweet, pitiful young man from a tragic family who had lost everyone.

In his past life, Shen Zhiyue died horribly. After enduring countless hardships to reach the position of Demon Lord, he was betrayed by the younger sister he had depended on, all because the man she loved coveted his position.

Only after being reborn did he learn that his miserable life was nothing more than a foil set up by the Heavenly Dao for its chosen darling.

That darling of the Heavenly Dao had enjoyed a charmed life since childhood: extraordinary talent, loving brothers, beautiful women vying for him, and a kind master.

Meanwhile, Shen Zhiyue had struggled from the moment he was born. His spiritual roots were destroyed, his sister betrayed him, and everyone around him had their own ulterior motives.

In his past life, the Heavenly Dao's darling had a master who was the leading lady of his harem, a hopeless romantic who loved and fought with him over three lifetimes. In the end, she willingly gave him everything she had and transformed into a female spiritual body to join his harem.

His sister, who had sacrificed everything, was just an obscure member of the darling's harem.

After being reborn, he rescued his amnesiac master from the water before the Heavenly Dao's darling could.

This time, he would take every opportunity meant for the Heavenly Dao's darling. The first thing he would steal was his master.

Pei Qianyu, who had suffered so much in his past life, was very pleased with this sensible little disciple.

The now-corrupted little disciple, already happily together with his master, thinks to himself: Why isn't Master turning into a woman for love this time? Does he love that sworn enemy of mine more? No. Absolutely not!

The original explicit novel's bottom, now an aloof, beautiful master and bottom × a reborn, scheming villain disciple and top

The master's three awful disciples from his past life will make cameo appearances~

A little heads-up: The male lead is the bottom. At first, he transmigrates into the lifetime in which the master and the original novel's male lead love and hate each other. That lifetime is very short, and he disguises himself as a woman, but dies very suddenly. He soon gets his male body back. There is no gender transformation in this story; it's just part of the background. Please decide for yourselves whether you're okay with that~ Mwah~
