Blurb:
Xuan Yi was arguing with someone over who would help an old woman cross against the light one moment, then the two of them were sent flying by public security officers the next.
Xuan Yi: “...”
The System that egged her on: “Nice.”
Xuan Yi went berserk, yanked out the System, and said, “Sending you straight to heaven counts as doing a good deed a day.”
System: ?! Shit!
We’ve all seen women take a System down with them, but never a lunatic who can turn one into ashes.
At the Interstellar Alliance Friendship Match, she “accidentally” wipes out everyone the moment she appears.
Opponent: What mental hospital did this psycho escape from?
Xuan Yi pulls off her disguise and grins wickedly. “Your daddy came to help the old woman cross the street, and you tried to beat me to it.”
Her opponents fall silent.
Her opponents spit blood.
The Friendship Match turns into a grudge match in seconds, and every competitor starts swinging at the slightest provocation.
The instigator, Xuan Yi, makes a token attempt to intervene. “Stop fighting. All of you, stop.”
“You’re not going to kill anyone like this!”
Everyone else: If you’ve got the guts, come hit me! Come on!
Xuan Yi grins. “That’s the first time I’ve heard anyone ask for that. I’ll grant your wish.”
Later, Xuan Yi single-handedly “persuades” every competitor in the all-out brawl to stop fighting.
The crowd refuses to accept defeat.
Xuan Yi says nothing, rolls up her sleeves, and beats them all up again.
They’re convinced.
They haven’t even gotten back on their feet, but their middle fingers are already up. The whole place is full of people cursing her out.
Xuan Yi has always thought her disciple was strange.
Snakes on Snake Star all drag their tails, but her disciple insists on walking upright like a human.
Snakes on Snake Star come of age at eighteen, but her disciple didn’t ask her, “Master, what is the Mysterious-Simple stage?” until he was eighteen.
Xuan Yi: “...The stage when you eat vegetarian food.”
Her disciple believes her.
But he still falls in love young.
“Master, if I like someone, how do I let them know my feelings and get them to accept me?”
Xuan Yi: “Lick them, steal them, force them, take them, snatch them.”
Her disciple falls silent.
“What if I can’t snatch them?”
Xuan Yi, who has always stood up for her own, decides to help her disciple steal the person he likes. But as she goes along with it, she realizes he’s using all those tricks on her...
Xuan Yi falls silent.
Xuan Yi is stunned.
Her disciple is trying to rebel.
Fine. Great. Everyone wants to rebel together, huh? She gives him two slaps. Let’s all go crazy together.
An Yi: “Master said that if you like someone, you have to take them, even if they’ve been reduced to ashes.”
His System: “Nice.”
Well, if we’re going crazy, let’s all go crazy together.
This is a comedic, unconventional story about a master who refuses to play by the rules, a group of disciples who follow them to the letter, and a villain who tries to do good deeds every day. They all manage to make trouble for one another.
* A master with a wildly unconventional mind vs. a scheming yet obedient and well-behaved disciple
Note:
The second book in the Master-and-Disciple trilogy. The writing is goofy, hilarious, and freewheeling, with everyone going collectively nuts at the drop of a hat.
A little ensemble cast, with plenty of memes.
* Female master and male disciple, younger man, one-on-one romance.
* The heroine is human, but doesn’t act like one. The hero is a snake, but doesn’t act like one.
* Slow burn. The romance starts later in the first volume.
* Set in the future, with plenty of original worldbuilding (the world of the Absolute Submission series).
Three volumes: Game, Academy, Immortals.
Come on, come on~ Let’s all cut loose and go crazy together
Theme: May everything you long for become what you wish for
