The Art of Taming the Dragon

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

Although Luo Qingci knew her name resembled that of a protagonist from ancient stories, she never expected to find herself transmigrated into a cultivation novel one day.

What made her even more exasperated was that she didn’t transmigrate as the female lead, but rather the female lead’s cannon fodder master.

This cultivation novel is a typical, strong female lead type story, except the female lead isn’t human; she’s a dragon. Under the conflict between the humans and dragons, the female lead was tortured by humans in all sort of manners, scummed by the male lead, before turning into a super OP villainous character that destroys the cultivation realm.

As for the female lead’s master, Huaizhu-jun, who left behind a single egg after massacring the female lead’s family right at the very beginning of the story, then later on uses various methods to torment her naive disciple, ends up with her spiritual roots destroyed, her bones ripped out, and dies without a single body part intact.

When Luo Qingci transmigrated over and found the floor soaked in blood, alongside a pitch-black, extremely ugly egg-shaped object, she immediately turned stone-faced. Is there still time for her to cook this egg now?

Female lead much later: Shizun, aren’t you the dragon slaying fiend? How did you overlook me?

Luo Qingci: Your egg was too ugly.

Female lead: Shizun, this humiliated look of yours, I love it a lot.

Luo Qingci: That’s too pe*verted.

Female lead: Shizun, I like you. Did you ever like me, even if a little bit?

Luo Qingci: I’m not dumb.

Female lead: ……

Biased and secretly dark disciple vs cold on the outside, hot on the inside shizun.

Alternatively: “When does shizun expose herself” or “Unveiling shizun’s secrets with me and shizun”.

It is an enjoyable story as MC get pulled into the story at both the right time & wrong time to help the FL & save the world.

... more>>
Spoiler

Right time to save the FL as a 300 year old dragon stuck in it's egg due to deficiencies, but bad time because MC was part of a dragon extermination group & appears to have killed the leader of the dragons & the eggs father. So she has to help the FL to survive & grow, but also now the villainess for her fathers death that leads to the MC death in the book & destruction of the world later on. Which the MC must prevent the FL from going dark.

MC has a system to guide her in a way to keep certain plot points that are required by the worlds order, but at times the MC is able to alter certain points by unknowing using herself as an alternate initially with an alternate identity also to bypass certain world order restrictions placed on her while replacing the original book MC & to hide her identity from the FL who has plans for revenge of her fathers death.

FL has the evil version inside of her initially from the previous go of the book & came back to get revenge & guide FL, thou the alternate MC now kind of changes up, making her plans harder to push.

System is also part of the previous go of the book & has an understanding of the critical points & tries to guide/protect MC, but there is more to the systems story.

A few time skips through out the series, since cultivation world where years go buy easily.

Okay, new translator here. I saw that there were no new updates in a good few months so I recklessly started going.
This novel isn't perfect but it really is enjoyable and worth reading at least once. So, here I am trying to make that possible outside of MTL. I've re-translated the first two chapters for the sake of internal consistencies, as well as the summary. I'll keep the original summary here but my own version would be in the spoiler tag.

Spoiler

Summary:
Although Luo Qingci knows that her name resembles that of an ancient heroine, but she never thought that would be a day where she would actually transmigrate into a cultivation novel. What made her even more frustrated, was that she didn’t transmigrate as the heroine but the heroine’s cannon fodder master.

This cultivation novel was a classic formidable heroine story, albeit the heroine wasn’t a human but a dragon. Under the great background of humans and dragons being unable to coexist, the heroine first faces the bloody oppression of humanity, is betrayed by the male lead, finally blackening and overwhelmingly ending the cultivation world.

And the heroine’s master, Huaizhu Xianjun had slaughtered the heroine’s family down to just an egg at the start of the prologue. Later, repeatedly courting death to degrade the the ignorant heroine who had taken her as a master. Finally, having her spiritual-root crippled, her immortal bones extracted and dying with an incomplete corpse.

When Luo Qingci had transmigrated, discovering the blood covering the ground in front of her, and the incomparably ugly egg-shaped object in front of her—petrified on the spot. If she cooked the egg now, would it be in time?

Much later, the heroine: Master, aren’t you a slaughterer, the butcher of dragons?
Why merely leaving me behind?

Luo Qingci: Your egg was too ugly.

Heroine: Master, your humiliated expression, I like it to the extreme.

Luo Qingci: Too pe*verted.

Heroine: Master, I like you, have you ever held even a bit of affection for me?

Luo Qingci: I’m not s*upid.

Heroine:...

Paranoid dim-black Disciple VS Cold on the outside and warm on the inside Master.

Content tags: Strong/Strong, Have eyes only for you, Past world and this Life, Transmigration, Serious Drama, Black-belly.

Key words: Main Characters: Ruan Li, Luo Qingci | Side Characters: | Others: 1v1, Yandere Black-belly Disciple vs Seeming Aloof but actually Chatty Master

One Sentence Summary: She is my most important person, always.

Main Theme: The brightest part of human nature, is compassion.

My own biased review (no spoilers) :
Spoiler

What starts off as a very lighthearted cookie-cutter transmigration story takes a steep nose-dive into unexpected depths. Whilst not exactly inventive and certainly falling into many of the genre's tropes, it executes them all to an extremely high degree. There are twists and turns here that would surprise and devastate. As well as strong character writing to carry the overall plot. It is a tight experience that manages to complete its simple world in great detail.

At its thematic core, it is a story that focuses on the power of empathy and compassion to break past even the most impossible of barriers. Not to mention dealing with the generational traumas left on our main characters by their fore-bearers and how those are resolved.

It has been one of the strongest cultivation novels I've ever read.

Didn’t expect this to be translated, but I’m glad it is. I really enjoyed the sweet short slice of life beginning when the dragon just hatched and is a wittle baby. During this time, MC wore a mask and took on another name. She did this because dragon are intelligent the moment they’re born and regain memories from when they were still in the egg. P.s. MC has so many disguises my god.
Spoiler

Main character is the genius disciple of the sect, the original soul is practicing the ruthless sword or something meaning she conditioned (or her master did) herself to have no emotions. Which, p.s. Makes things so funny because MC has to practice it too so she doesn’t be Sus but she’s so talkative and energetic in contrast to what she shows on the outside.

Anyways, MC wakes up, injured and confused, just before witnessing the dragon king get killed by the sect master. She finds the egg and hides in a cave. Egg hatches, she raise her for a few years (in disguise of course), realize that they can’t live like this forever and dragon must be trained by other dragons, she pretends to abandon dragon by throwing dragon to its uncle dragon. Years later, dragon is now late teenager and ready for vengeance. MC obviously recognize dragon right away, even in human form. MC takes dragon as a disciple, dragon pretends to be a good girl but really wants to kill MC, however, is confused by mc’s cool but kind treatment because she heard MC was supposed to be ruthless

yeah, that’s where I’m at right now. Enjoy!

Yes, another transmigration novel with system placing restrictions on MC. Yes, MC is currently very OP, but there are restrictions placed on her abilities. Starts off fairly lighthearted and slowly moving to more of the meat of the story, not much going on yet and feelings will take a while to develop as this is a slowburn. But, the current development is interesting and author writes the MC and FL well and other characters aren't fully fleshed out, but are interesting enough

Overall a currently enjoyable read, looking forward to what... more>> comes next and how everything ties together

Thank you to the translator for picking this up, a skilled translation of this novel

Spoiler

I super love the idea that the original 'evil' LQ was more than just terribly cruel, feels like her backstory is pretty evident on where it is going with an abusive master and she either doesn't know better or was a product of her upbringing, going to be interesting to see how that plays out

what happens near the end that resolves the Dragon Killer God dilemma.

Not going to lie, I read the beginning chapters seriously up to chapter 170ish which was when I started skimming because of how certain I was of the ending.

Otherwise, I had a great time following the ups and downs of the plot and emotions of the characters. In fact, I actually MTL’ed this novel before it was getting translated up until the midpoint of the novel. On my reread of previous chapters, the story was definitely still a fun read! <<less
