The Internet's Most Hated Star Marries the Villain and Goes on a Rampage

[Updates follow the ranking schedule this week, between 10 p.m. and midnight. Thank you all for your support, sending love! Coming soon: My Nemesis Is the Master of Angsty Romance. The blurb is at the end]

Ji Liantang had just beaten up a friend who wanted to use him to get connections when a video of it was posted online.

Once the nation’s beloved heartthrob and youngest-ever Best Actor, he was now the most hated man in the entertainment industry, a deranged black lotus whose scandals kept countless gossip accounts in business. The video immediately sent the whole internet into a frenzy. As public opinion snowballed, his endorsements faced termination, and his company pressured him to apologize to the person who had attacked him on livestream and ask for a settlement.

Ji Liantang laughed in sheer anger. He’d planned to go crazy on livestream, take everyone down with him, and announce his retirement from showbiz, but accidentally tapped the random-match feature and got connected to a metaphysics streamer.

Yang Chong: “My friend, looking at your face, I can tell you’ll suffer a bloody disaster tonight.”

Ji Liantang: “Tsk. Looking at your face, you’d have a better future making a living off your looks than pretending to be a mystic.”

Yang Chong: “I’m not lying. You’re surrounded by a deadly fate. Every step forward is a dead end.”

Ji Liantang: “Oh? So how do I get out of it?”

Yang Chong: “Marry me.”

Ji Liantang laughed at the lunatic. “Fine! If you really can save my life, I’ll marry you!”

That night, when an illegal intruder and obsessive fan drove Ji Liantang to jump from the twelfth floor, Yang Chong caught him. His entire worldview was remade.

You’re saying I’m the chosen protagonist, destined to be blessed with good fortune and save the world after the spiritual qi revival?

You’re saying I’ve been unlucky all these years because someone who transmigrated into a book stole my fortune, and has now pushed me to the brink of death?

You’re saying I was switched at birth, and I’m the real young master in one of those fake-versus-real young master stories?

Ji Liantang was utterly bewildered. “Then who are you?”

Yang Chong: “...A villain fated to die young, become a living corpse after death, and slaughter his way through the world.”

To expose all the people who had transmigrated into books, the short-lived protagonist and the villain who didn’t want to die decided to marry and stir up trouble.

After the wedding, Yang Chong was an impeccable marriage partner, despite his poker face and his knack for saying things that left people speechless.

But perhaps because they were natural enemies, Ji Liantang couldn’t help feeling that Yang Chong wasn’t as “proper” as he seemed. He was always compelled to tease him.

Seeing the slightest trace of helplessness on his face was just too much fun.

Until...

“Wait! Aren’t we just fake spouses? Why does the marriage contract say ‘bound in life and death, our souls together forever’?”

“We agreed we’d share a bed but not a pillow. How does sleeping on your arm not count as sharing a pillow?”

“And what do you mean by giving me an ankle bracelet?!”

PS:

1. A flirtatious beauty as the protagonist and bottom x a restrained, scheming villain as the top. Set against the spiritual qi revival.

2. One-on-one, both physically and emotionally. Extreme shippers, beware. The author is fiercely devoted to this couple!!!

3. This story is entirely fictional. The characters aren’t based on real people, and the author isn’t a celebrity fan. Please respect the characters and don’t associate them with any real person!!!

4. No unsolicited writing advice. No need to tell me if you drop the story. Wishing everyone a happy reading experience and a happy life!

Coming Soon

When the Demon Lord Mu Yidu was undergoing his tribulation, a book appeared in his sea of consciousness.

He discovered that Yu Hefeng, his sworn enemy of hundreds of years, was actually the cold and aloof immortal venerable bottom in this explicit harem novel!

The book said Yu Hefeng would abandon his heartless cultivation for his disciple, develop a heart demon and fall into demonic cultivation for him, then be betrayed and have his immortal bones stripped away, leaving him to be used as a cultivation furnace. He would be tormented by all kinds of trash he’d once looked down on, then spend a hundred chapters playing cat and mouse with his disciple before getting a happy ending.

Mu Yi: What the hell??? Weren’t you supposed to be an exemplary graduate of the heartless path? If my nemesis is a useless lovesick fool, doesn’t that make me, his equal and rival for hundreds of years, a fool too?!

The more Mu Yi thought about it, the angrier he got. To hell with ascending to the divine realm!

He had to kill Yu Hefeng before his brain went bad, or the man would ruin his reputation too!

One moment’s foolishness, and he failed his tribulation.

The backlash from the heavenly lightning turned Mu Yi into his original form as a young cub, and Yu Hefeng took him home.

Mu Yi wondered if Yu Hefeng had seen through his disguise and was planning to take him somewhere private to torture him. Instead, the man with a face cold for ten thousand years picked him up and gave him a vigorous snuggle, then forced him to sign a cultivation partner contract.

Mu Yi: Aaaah! My innocence is gone! This guy really is crazy!

As the foremost figure among the immortal sects, Yu Hefeng calculated that he would face a love tribulation before ascending.

An exemplary graduate of the heartless path, Yu Hefeng had been single for nearly a thousand years and would rather give up ascending than fall in love.

So he kept fighting his nemesis, Demon Lord Mu Yi, to vent his excessive spiritual energy and keep his cultivation from advancing.

But, unfortunately, Mu Yi was about to undergo his tribulation and ascend!

To avoid being caught off guard, Yu Hefeng had to confront his love tribulation on his own terms and find a cultivation partner he could control before fate arrived.

While he was brooding over this, he heard that Mu Yi had failed his tribulation. Delighted, Yu Hefeng hurried over to finish him off, but couldn’t find the man. Instead, on an abandoned mountainside, he found a grimy little black cat.

It bared its teeth and claws, but it was so cute!

It kept trying to poke Yu Hefeng in the eyes with its claws, but it was so cute!

Its claws were too short to reach, which made it even cuter!

Yu Hefeng was smitten. Besides, cats were weak creatures that couldn’t talk and had short lifespans, making one the perfect choice for a convenient cultivation partner!

Without a second thought, Yu Hefeng half-forced the little cat to sign a cultivation partner contract.

Who could have guessed that the first thing the adorable cat said after the contract was sealed would be: Yu Hefeng! You pervert, forcing a cat to become your cultivation partner! Are you insane?

Yu Hefeng: ...?

Why did that sound like Mu Yi? Even a dream wouldn’t be this unpleasant.

When he opened his eyes, he saw an adorable cat he wanted to kiss. When he closed them, he heard his nemesis’s voice and wanted to strangle him.

He’d heard that some heartless cultivators who strayed down the evil path liked to kill their husbands to prove their Dao. Now he was starting to think it might not be such a bad idea.

And so the two settled into a lovely life of beating each other up every day, then trading verbal barbs whenever they got tired.

Yu Hefeng: Hah. You couldn’t even pass your tribulation. It’s embarrassing to be your equal.

Mu Yi: Hah. You’d rather die than live without a man. Who’s more embarrassing?

Yu Hefeng: Did the lightning fry your brain? I can help cut it out.

Mu Yi: Forcing a cat to become your cultivation partner, and you’re asking who’s insane?!

Note:

1. A proud, unruly Demon Lord who’s secretly a soft-hearted puppy-like top x a cold, restrained immortal venerable who’s secretly short-tempered and sharp-tongued as the bottom.

2. Two strong leads, lovers who fight like they’re on opposing teams, and treat stabbing each other as a way of showing affection.

3. They’re mutually devoted, whether they’re trying to kill or love each other. Extreme shippers, beware!!!
