I Stole the Demonic Cult Leader’s Elixir and Ran Away

Seol Ah-heon wakes up inside his favorite martial arts novel, Hwasan Chronicle—not as the hero, but as a minor villain destined to die almost immediately. Worse, he appears right in the middle of stealing a priceless elixir from the Demonic Cult’s young master, Baek Geon-ha. In panic, he swallows the elixir… and is caught moments later.

Instead of killing him, the dangerously beautiful and ruthless Baek Geon-ha spares Ah-heon for an unexpected reason. Due to a broken balance of yin and yang in his body, he must regularly use a forbidden cultivation technique—and the unlucky Seol Ah-heon turns out to be the perfect source of yin energy.

Now bound to the demonic young master as his unwilling “yin battery,” Ah-heon plans to recreate the stolen elixir, repay his debt, and escape. The problem? The closer he gets to Baek Geon-ha, the less likely that escape seems.
