After Defying the Villain’s Fate for Nine Lifetimes, the Heroines Turn Mad!

Jiang Chen never asked to be the villain.

When he awakened inside the pages of a cultivation novel as the infamous senior brother destined for ruin, he had no cheat, no hidden gift—only a burning will to live with dignity.

Determined to change his fate, he embarked on a path of reincarnation, reliving his life nine times in pursuit of righteousness. Each life, he walked the line of virtue, striving to be the kind of senior brother that deserved respect.

But fate had other plans.

Labeled as evil, misunderstood by those he tried to protect, he was constantly scorned and cast aside, his actions twisted, his sacrifices unseen.

Until his tenth life.

This time, Jiang Chen gave up. His compassion faded, his heart turned to ice. No more playing the saint—if destiny insisted on making him a villain, then he would become one without remorse.

“If the heavens choose this role for me, then let them watch as I play it to perfection.”

——

My name is Jiang Lianyue. I always thought my senior brother was cruel, wicked, and utterly undeserving of respect.

I loathed him.

But that all changed the day I saw the memories of his past lives.

In his first life, he destroyed his cultivation to restore our second brother’s crippled core.

In the next, he spent endless days refining pills to save me from a deadly cold poison, burning through his spiritual core in the process.

In the third life and beyond… his sacrifices multiplied while his pain remained unseen.

Now, I finally understand.

The villain I cursed was the hero who shielded us through lifetimes.

And I… I may be too late to make things right.
