How Could the Young Master Be Playing the Villain?

Hua Yi has two ambitions in life. First, to become the strongest cultivator among the immortal sects. Second, to defeat Xie Jue of Xuanshan Mountain and become the one and only strongest. As a dazzling young sect heir and peerless prodigy, Hua Yi has spent the first sixteen years of her life growing up surrounded by praise. She has lived freely and fearlessly, except for one thing. Whenever people mention her, they always bring up Xie Jue. They are both young master and young mistress. Both are prodigies. And Hua Yi, fiercely competitive by nature, has lost count of how many times this comparison has made her secretly furious. Then, while venturing out in search of the legendary ancient jade Linglong Heart, Hua Yi unexpectedly crosses paths with Xie Jue. Neither of them expects this chance encounter to change their lives forever. They compete for the treasure, bicker at every turn, and spark like flint against steel. Somehow, they even end up staying at the same inn. Wait. What happened to being enemies? And what exactly are those sparks supposed to mean? … Hua Yi initially thinks this is nothing more than an ordinary treasure hunt. She couldn’t have been more wrong. From the moment she obtains the Linglong Heart, her entire fate begins to change. Unexplained heart palpitations. Sudden murderous impulses. Strange shadows appearing in her dreams. Piece by piece, they weave an invisible net around her. She wants to reach the summit, but countless unseen hands are determined to drag her down. As the immortal sects descend into political turmoil and secrets surrounding the mysterious Demon Lord begin to surface, Hua Yi and her former “rival” gradually find themselves drawn into a conspiracy far greater than either expected. And the man she once regarded as her greatest rival becomes the one person who refuses to abandon her when she loses control. He catches her in his arms despite everything. “Hua Yi, if you keep going like this, you’ll die.” Her eyes are red. “Don’t interfere.” His composure finally cracks. “If you die, what am I supposed to do?” The Seven-Orifice Exquisite Heart. A heart filled with intricate desires. Love and hatred are written by fate. But if fate has already decided their ending, why can’t they rewrite it themselves? … No matter what Hua Yi does. No matter what she becomes. Xie Jue will always be behind her. And when necessary, he’ll draw his sword and stand between her and the entire world. “Whoever dares touch her, I’ll kill them.” Fall from grace? Be doomed to eternal ruin? No. Not this time. If this cultivation world has no place for Hua Yi, then they will tear it apart and build a new one. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: How Could the Young Master Be Playing the Villain? — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
