Danmei

Wei Wuxian è il temibile Patriarca di Yiling, considerato il fondatore delle tecniche demoniache di coltivazione, una combinazione di studi taoisti e arti mistiche che consente di ottenere facoltà soprannaturali. Governa eserciti di cadaveri e semina il terrore con il suo Generale fantasma Wen Ning e il potentissimo Sigillo Oscuro della Tigre. Quando finalmente muore durante il Grande Assalto al colle dei Sepolcri, la notizia è accolta con gioia dal mondo dei cultori. Tredici anni dopo, Wei Wuxian si risveglia nel corpo di un giovane che sacrifica l'anima per farlo rinascere nel proprio corpo e affidargli la sua vendetta. Questa seconda vita, però, non libera Wei Wuxian dal fardello di quella precedente, e anzi lo costringerà a fare i conti con le conseguenze delle scelte intraprese. Al suo fianco c'è Lan Wangji, cultore sopraffino dalla reputazione inattaccabile, con il quale tenterà di fare luce sui segreti intricati che riemergono dalle ombre del loro passato. E al quale si troverà unito da un legame tanto inaspettato quanto indomabile.

Half-demon Luo Binghe rose from humble beginnings and a tortured past to become unrivaled in strength and beauty. With his harem of over three hundred wives, and dominion over both the human and demonic realms, he is truly the most powerful protagonist—in a trashy web novel series! At least, that's what Shen Yuan, online alias "Peerless Cucumber," believes as he finishes reading the final chapter in Proud Immortal Demon Way. But when a combination of rage and a poor meal choice leads to his death, Shen Yuan finds himself reborn into the world of the web novel, in the body of Shen Qingqiu—the beautiful but cruel teacher to a young Luo Binghe. Although as Shen Qingqiu, he now has incredible power and abilities as a cultivator, he’s destined to be horrifically punished for crimes against the protagonist, so this new Shen Qingqiu has only one course of action: get into Luo Binghe’s good graces before the young man’s rise to power. That’s the only way he’ll escape the awful fate of a true scum villain!

\[CHARACTER DEPTH LEVEL \+10] Three years have passed since Shen Qingqiu betrayed Luo Binghe, and now there are only two years left before his “deceased” disciple rises from the dead to claim his bloody glory as the protagonist. At least, that’s how the story is supposed to go. In the midst of investigating a mysterious plague, Shen Qingqiu discovers that his actions have irreparably altered the plot—Luo Binghe has returned all too soon and Shen Qingqiu’s brilliant escape plan isn’t even ready yet! Worse, Shen Qingqiu can no longer predict his young disciple’s actions. The only thing that hasn’t changed is Luo Binghe’s intense fixation on Shen Qingqiu himself, but even this obsession may be more than it seems. Not that Shen Qingqiu has the time to puzzle through all the inconsistencies. There are various parties at play in the changing plot, and if he doesn’t act fast, he may face a fate far worse than death.

[SATISFACTION POINTS +500!] To save his sect from destruction, Shen Qingqiu has at last submitted to Luo Binghe—though he wishes people would stop saying it like that! Unfortunately, they’re not wrong. Luo Binghe has finally made his desire for his old master clear. For all that Shen Qingqiu longs to return to their peaceful days together on Qing Jing Peak, he knows it’s impossible now that Luo Binghe has darkened into a true demon lord. But as Shen Qingqiu begins to uncover more of Proud Immortal Demon Way’s hidden plot, including his host body’s own backstory, he realizes he must learn to see Luo Binghe for who he truly is if either of them are to survive.
