Yue Wangshu was living a perfectly good life when a System suddenly bound itself to him. It insisted that he transmigrate into melodramatic novels to complete missions, playing the lovesick fool at a scum gong's side. After enduring a string of clichéd, body-and-heart-wrenching torture, he was supposed to be coaxed back by the scum gong's sweet talk, leading to a lovely happy ending.
Yue Wangshu went crazy as soon as he transmigrated into the first world.
His cultivation partner, with whom he'd shared a loving relationship, was pointing their token of affection, a sword, at him, ready to take the blood from his heart to make medicine for his junior brother.
The scum gong looked at Yue Wangshu with pained eyes and said gently, "Do it yourself. I can't bear to."
Yue Wangshu: "Does that sound like something a human being would say?"
The System was thrilled. "That's right! Torture him brutally, until the Host is half-dead. Then the scum gong will realize who he truly loves!"
Yue Wangshu: "Heh. I'll kill them all."
The System was delighted. "You mean killing him with self-harm, playing hard to get, and pushing and pulling him to the limit, until he finally comes to his senses and has to win you back?"
Yue Wangshu: "I mean kill him in the literal, physical sense."
The System: "???"
Yue Wangshu plunged his sword into the scum gong's chest, piercing him clean through, then turned and ran, falling straight into demonic cultivation.
The System shrieked. "Aah, Host, where are you going?! Hurry back and do your mission!"
Yue Wangshu was utterly calm. "No rush. I'll go back in a bit."
The System: "When is 'in a bit'?!"
Yue Wangshu: "When I've become the Demon Lord. Then I'll go back and slaughter his entire sect."
The System: "!!!"
*
The System was terrified, watching Yue Wangshu go completely dark, one step at a time.
Transmigrated into a court-intrigue novel as a treacherous minister who is purged after the crown prince takes the throne.
Yue Wangshu: "I'll help the villain rise to power, so the scum gong gets executed by being pulled apart by five horses for treason."
Transmigrated into a space opera as a useless beta forced into a political marriage with the Empire's God of War.
Yue Wangshu: "I'll go to the battlefield and cut off his head myself."
Transmigrated into an entertainment-industry novel as a lovesick fool entangled for years with a popular celebrity...
The System: "Host, be careful! You can't just kill people whenever you want in a law-abiding society!"
Yue Wangshu: "Oh. Then I'll take the scum gong's resources, his awards, and his one true love, leaving him with nothing. I'll destroy his heart."
The main idea: Even if he can't kill the scum gong, he'll make his life worse than death.
The System thought their missions were doomed. But who could have guessed that not only would the scum gong fall madly in love with this Host, but the scum gong's one true love, his nemesis, and the hidden Big Boss would all come kissing him?
He is ruthless and cruel. He is cold and heartless. He never looks back.
He is the dark moonlight that everyone loves but can never have.
The System: "Host, please don't be so crazy. I'm scared, boo-hoo."
Yue Wangshu: "I've gone crazy, but I've also become stronger."
