As title says, with a bit of shameless self advertisement, if you're looking for a fantastic adventure novel with an evil villain as main character I present to you: The Cicada That Leapt Through Time! Story: The legend of the cicada who leaps through time. A long time ago, a cicada was born. It was forcefully enslaved by the demon Fang Yuan but within hours of birth, they were attacked by greedy robbers! Left with no choice, the demon committed suicide - thus forcing the cicada to leapt back into the past, where its master was still weak... Pros and cons: Story with no harem and romance; features intelligent bugs, beasts and humans; evil main character; lots of tragedy and death. Also known as Reverend Insanity, Daoist Gu, and Gu Daoist Master. https://www.novelupdates.com/series/gu-daoist-master/
Too lazy; I get free advertisements whenever somebody looks at the URL when reading Shoujo Grand Summoning, Holistic Fantasy, or Unlimited Anime Works.
Wasn't it the demon who suicided? So it should be: "Left with no choice, the demon suicided - thus forcing the young cicada to jump to the past, where its master was still weak..." I do like this novel!
There is no such word as suicided. Use committed suicide instead. Also very captivating synopsis! Will read
This novels thrash. You should read Reverend insanity , GU daoist master or daoist GU instead. Way better
