NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER! The blockbuster danmei Boys’ Love novels from China that inspired
the animated Scumbag System series streaming in English! This hilarious story of a man reborn
as a villain in a fantasy novel series who ends up romancing the male protagonist is now in
English for the very first time. Half-demon Luo Binghe rose from humble beginnings and a
tortured past to become unrivaled in strength and beauty. With his dominion over both the Human
and Demon Realms and his hundreds-strong harem he is truly the most powerful protagonist...in
a trashy webnovel series! At least that's what Shen Yuan believes as he finishes reading the
final chapter in Proud Immortal Demon Way. But when a bout of rage leads to his sudden death
Shen Yuan is reborn into the world of the novel in the body of Shen Qingqiu--the beautiful but
cruel teacher of a young Luo Binghe. While Shen Qingqiu may have the incredible power of a
cultivator he is destined to be horrifically punished for crimes against the protagonist. The
new Shen Qingqiu now has only one course of action: get into Luo Binghe's good graces before
the young man's rise to power or suffer the awful fate of a true scum villain! This Chinese
fantasy (xianxia) comedy built around the romanticized love between two men (danmei) has been
translated into numerous languages and inspired the animated series Scumbag System which
amassed millions of streaming views--including the English version on YouTube through Tencent
Video. As the first novel series by Mo Xiang Tong Xiu to spur a global multimedia franchise
this incredibly fun tale led the way to her future blockbusters in the danmei genre:
Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation and Heaven Official's Blessing. The Seven Seas
English-language edition will include exclusive all-new covers and interior illustrations from
Xiao Tong Kong (Velinxi) and feature a translation by Faelicy (faelicy) & Lily (lily_ocho).
