Synopsis
Yan Xici transmigrates into a novel as a cruel master destined for eternal torture at the hands of his disciple. To avoid millennia of suffering, he attempts to accelerate his demise by being even more vicious than the original plot required. However, his plans are derailed when he realizes his disciple, Ji Moze, has been reborn and is far more calculating than expected. This story reads like a comedic take on the shizun trope, reminiscent of transmigration narratives where the villain's plans backfire. It is perfect for BL readers who enjoy scheming leads and ironic power dynamics, though those seeking a heavy, dramatic cultivation epic should skip it. The narrative is concisely paced, focusing on the humorous tension between the master's faux-evil persona and the disciple's genuine obsession.

Editorial Review
The novel offers a clever subversion of the transmigration genre by giving the protagonist a pragmatic, albeit twisted, motivation: wanting to die quickly to avoid a worse fate. This creates a strong comedic engine and a compelling dynamic between the two leads. However, the story's brevity is a double-edged sword. At 127 chapters, it avoids the bloat often found in webnovels, but it likely sacrifices deeper world-building and character development. Given the very low visibility and modest length, it feels more like a light vignette than a sweeping epic. While the chemistry between the scheming disciple and the lethargic master is a highlight, the overall execution remains modest.
