The Villain and I Keep Sacrificing Each Other

Next up: The Return of the White Moonlight’s Deceased Wife, an apocalyptic xianxia romance. Please add it to your collections!~

[Bright, resilient, and quick-witted heroine × obsessive, unstable, beautiful but tragic hero]

Overnight, she transmigrates into a book and becomes Ling Qingyu, the world-destroying villainess in Pursuit of Immortality.

Born into low status, the original Ling Qingyu fell in love with the male lead, who did not return her feelings. Her scumbag brother poisoned her and forced her to marry a cannon-fodder supporting character. In the end, she killed her husband and brother, destroyed half the cultivation world, and met a tragic end.

As soon as Ling Qingyu arrives, her scumbag brother feeds her poison. It’s hell from the start. Determined not to repeat the original’s fate, she decisively runs away from her wedding. On the way, a handsome young man saves her, and she falls hard for him.

Later, Ling Qingyu learns by chance that her cannon-fodder husband, the sickly young heir of the Bihua Sect, is actually Ye Si, the obsessive villain in Slaying Demons, the companion novel to Pursuit of Immortality.

Ye Si is like a gender-swapped version of the original Ling Qingyu: born frail, twisted in character, and in love with his senior sister, his own white moonlight, to no avail. To prolong his life through dual cultivation, he marries a cannon-fodder wife, then eventually kills her and his father, bringing half the cultivation world to ruin.

Well, would you look at that: the two books have merged!

She became Ye Si’s cannon-fodder wife.

Ye Si became her cannon-fodder husband.

Are they supposed to ruin each other, or join forces to destroy the world?

And the most ridiculous part is that the stunningly handsome, exceptionally skilled guy she has a crush on is none other than the obsessive villain in disguise!

When two villains get together, nothing good can come of it.

Ling Qingyu decides to treat her crush as if he’s already dead. All she wants is to stay far away from the obsessive villain, who plays the fool while secretly holding all the cards and flies into a rage at the drop of a hat.

Even after they unexpectedly cross paths again and again, she repeatedly makes her position clear: “Young Master Ye, I have absolutely no interest in you.”

Ye Si’s dark eyes turn fathomless, and he replies in a sinister voice, “Miss Ling, you rejected my proposal and said in front of everyone that you hated me. What else could I possibly mistake that for?”

But later, when a heavenly tribulation strikes, Ling Qingyu has no choice but to marry Ye Si after all, following the fate of the cannon-fodder wife. She thinks she can stop him from turning evil, but then she foresees him personally snapping her neck, fully embracing the demonic path, and slaughtering the immortal sects.

To hell with transmigrating into a book. She’s done with this.

Ling Qingyu disappears after falling into the sea and enjoys a carefree life for a while, only to hear that Ye Si has gone on a rampage everywhere, slaughtering an entire demonic city. Despite being afraid of water, he searched the sea for her for three months.

When they meet again, Ye Si embraces his wife, whom he thought he had lost forever. His eyes are red, tears glistening on his long lashes. Gritting his teeth, he threatens her:

“If you ever leave me again and make yourself impossible to find, I’ll kill you! I’ll tear you to pieces and eat you, then merge you into my bones and blood so you can never be separated from me again!!”

Watching the usually aloof, obsessive villain turn into a fragile, clingy little crybaby, Ling Qingyu feels her heart tremble. She knows she’ll never escape him now.

So what if he’s an obsessive villain? She can handle him!

*Reading Guide:

1. Happy ending, both leads’ first love and only partners, one-on-one. The original novel’s protagonists have very little page time.

2. Bickering couple, marriage before love, unaware of their feelings, with plenty of tension.

3. The male lead seems obsessive, but he’s really a poor little thing starved for affection. His possessiveness makes him jealous and prone to losing control from time to time.

4. The male lead’s true form is a tiny, fluffy little creature. Guess what it is!

Theme: Keep your heart turned toward the light, and the storm will pass at last.
