#A seemingly aloof but actually timid shou X a lunatic, world-destroying demon lord gong working undercover#
Synopsis:
Shen Ningxi had just graduated from university when she landed an easy job with an incredible salary: full-dive game tester.
As the name suggests, before a game is released, she would enter it ahead of time and play a local NPC. Her job was to observe the game's plot and characters in action, check for obvious bugs, and promptly report them to the technical team for fixes.
The first game she entered was her company's major new project, the grand romance The Legend of Xueyao, which had been in development for three years.
Her NPC role was the most gifted sword cultivator in the top cultivation sect, Xuantian Sect, and the unlucky master of the male and female leads later in the game.
Yes, an unlucky master...
Thanks to the game's melodramatic plot, the heroine, Qian Chixue, joined her sect alongside the hero. But no one knew that the seemingly innocent heroine was actually a demon lord, a half-dead undercover agent who had defied heaven itself.
She had come to apprentice there simply because she was bored and wanted some amusement, as well as a chance to slaughter the sect.
So, leaving aside the on-again, off-again romance between the leads, her unlucky master was destined by the game to protect the hero and her fellow disciples, only to be brutally torn into pieces by the heroine, who was actually the demon lord...
Of course, whether she died horribly wasn't really Shen Ningxi's concern. She understood the simple rule of doing a job for money. All she had to do was behave herself, play her NPC role properly, and make it to the scene where the heroine tore her apart. Then everything would be fine.
But... the ideal was beautiful, while reality was harsh.
The master Shen Ningxi imagined was talented, aloof, noble, and taciturn. Her job would be to occasionally show up in front of the leads, drop off a manual, teach them some cultivation techniques, and otherwise coast through life.
But... the hero was quite cooperative. He respected and trusted her, and followed her every instruction. It was just that Qian Chixue, the heroine... she never seemed to follow the game's script?
From the moment they met, she would flirt with her from time to time. Later, she became even bolder, taking every opportunity to hug and touch her...
Her strange forms of "bullying" came one after another, and Shen Ningxi couldn't take it. Her composure gradually fell apart.
Help!!!
Why wasn't Qian Chixue clinging to the hero like she was supposed to? Why was she glued to an NPC who only appeared for a few chapters and barely featured in the memories of the leads' story?!
But that wasn't even the scariest part. The worst thing was that the scene where she was supposed to be torn apart never came. And the heroine, who was supposed to be secretly in love with the hero and caught up in a tangled romance with him, was looking at her more and more strangely?!
At last, the heroine's attack on the sect arrived. Shen Ningxi hurriedly rushed forward, ready to be torn apart and bring this nearly derailed plot to an early end.
But in front of all the disciples, Qian Chixue, her breathtaking face splashed with blood, wrapped her arms tightly around Shen Ningxi's slender waist and held her captive. Her eyes were dark and menacing, but she smiled as if she meant no harm.
"Master, you came to me of your own accord. Don't even think about escaping now. Come and fall into hell with your disciple."
Synopsis 2:
As the most powerful demon lord in the demon realm, Qian Chixue had long grown tired of its dull, monotonous life. Born bloodthirsty and brutal, she had no clear sense of good or evil. She did whatever she wanted, and no one could stop her.
She came to Xuantian Sect only because she had heard of a peerless genius sword cultivator there. She wanted to meet her, test her strength, and then... kill her.
Becoming her disciple went smoothly. No one discovered she was a demon, not even that genius, her so-called master Shen Ningxi.
To be honest, Qian Chixue had plenty of chances to kill her master, who was as aloof as a celestial being and as pure and cold as a snow lotus.
But later, Qian Chixue realized something.
Rather than killing Shen Ningxi outright, she seemed to prefer watching the cold beauty's eyes turn red and wet as she held her captive in her arms.
Like a demon had bewitched her and dragged her down from her altar, leaving her bullied, tearful, helpless, and on the verge of breaking down...
