Seven Seas Entertainment recently announced the license acquisition of three novel series from China that inspired global multimedia empires: The Scum Villain’s Self-Saving System (Ren Zha Fanpai Zijiu Xitong), Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation (Mo Dao Zu Shi), and Heaven Official’s Blessing (Tian Guan Ci Fu). These three novel series comprise the entire current works of the wildly popular author Mo Xiang Tong Xiu. Seven Seas will launch all three Volume 1’s from each novel series on December 7, 2021.
The Scum Villain’s Self-Saving System
Synopsis:
Half-demon Luo Binghe rose from humble beginnings and a tortured past to become unrivaled in strength and beauty. With his harem of over three hundred wives, and dominion over both the human and demonic realms, he is truly the most powerful protagonist—in a trashy web novel series!
At least, that’s what Shen Yuan, online alias “Peerless Cucumber,” believes as he finishes reading the final chapter in Proud Immortal Demon Way. But when a combination of rage and a poor meal choice leads to his death, Shen Yuan finds himself reborn into the world of the web novel, in the body of Shen Qingqiu–the beautiful but cruel teacher to a young Luo Binghe. Although as Shen Qingqiu, he now has incredible power and abilities as a cultivator, he’s destined to be horrifically punished for crimes against the protagonist, so this new Shen Qingqiu has only one course of action: get into Luo Binghe’s good graces before the young man’s rise to power. That’s the only way he’ll escape the awful fate of a true scum villain! The Seven Seas English-language edition will include exclusive, all-new covers and interior illustrations from Xiao Tong Kong (Velinxi).
Seven Seas will publish the 4-volume series The Scum Villain’s Self-Saving System: Ren Zha Fanpai Zijiu Xitong (Novel) in large-trim, deluxe paperback editions. Volume 1 will be released on December 7, 2021 for $19.99 USA / $24.99 CAN. The ebooks will also be available on digital platforms.
Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation
Synopsis:
Wei Wuxian was once one of the most powerful men of his generation, a talented and clever young cultivator who harnessed martial arts and spirituality into powerful abilities. But when the horrors of war led him to seek more power through demonic cultivation, the world’s respect for his abilities turned to fear, and his death was celebrated throughout the land.
Years later, he awakens in the body of an aggrieved young man who sacrifices his soul so that Wei Wuxian can exact revenge on his behalf. Though granted a second life, Wei Wuxian is not free from his first, nor the mysteries that appear before him now. Yet this time, he’ll face it all with the righteous and esteemed Lan Wangji at his side, another powerful cultivator whose unwavering dedication and shared memories of their past will help shine a light on the dark truths that surround them.
