Synopsis

With unparalleled strength, a harem in the hundreds, and rulership of both the human and demon realms, Luo Binghe is a typical male lead for the stallion novel Proud Immortal Demon Way (PIDW). Like every protagonist, he has a tragic past: suffering under the thumb of his loathsome shizun, the scum villain Shen Qingqiu.

However, despite its great world-building and setup, PIDW eventually went off the rails, abandoning plotlines left and right, and now focusing exclusively on gratuitous sex. This is the very trash-tier web novel that a young millennial named Shen Yuan curses as he dies, swearing that even he could write a better story.

That moment is when the "System" initiates, and Shen Yuan awakens in the body of Shen Qingqiu. His mission? Turn this piece of subpar fiction into a grade-A masterpiece. Constrained by a System that will punish him for even being slightly out of character, Shen Yuan must avoid Shen Qingqiu's fate of becoming a human stick—and step one is to hug the protagonist's thigh!

In short: If you haven't read danmei before, this isn't the best introduction to the genre (basically Chinese BL) because it plays off more as a parody of the "overpowered protagonist" genre that doesn't take itself seriously in the least so it doesn't have many character moments that are being treated seriously (granted when they are it's absolutely amazing). I'd only recommend it if you want to have a laugh or if you like the writer and/or have enjoyed some of her other works like "The Grandmaster of demonic cultivation" or "Heaven Official's Blessing" and are curious how the writer started her writing carreer, tho ... be warned that the only thing these works have in common might be the sense of humor and the entertaining back and forths between characters which is pretty over the top in "Scum Villain's Self Saving System".

That said, this actually WAS my introduction to danmei (if we don't consider the Chinese drama "Untamed" which is the adaptation of "Grandmaster of Demonic cultivation") and it's why I can say firsthand that if you want to see what the genre has to offer this definitely ain't it! lol
"Scum Villain" is basically an isekai where the protagonist gets reincarnated into his favorite "stallion" web novel...as the villain shizun (cultivation teacher) who obviously gets tortured and dies by the hand of the overpowered novel protagonist. So if you read any of "villainess isekai" type romance webtoons then this is that but making everything gay because why the heck not! I know the genre has been done to death at this point but who is a sucker for isekai romance will definitely get some kinda enjoyment out of this at least on a superficial level.
The reincarnated Shen Qingqiu and the OP novel protagonist Lou Binghe have a really cute and well done chemistry that despite some (or more) creepy aspects of their relationship mainly related to Lou Binghe's unhealthy obsession with his "isekai-ed" shizun, they do end up being quite the satisfying ship to see develop on the pages of the novel and everytime they interact it's an absolute feast.
I do have some points i'd like to raise a finger at especially in volume 3 which is the resolution of the main story, but without entering spoiler territory let me just leave a big Trigger warning if you're uncomfortable with sexual assault. The writer isn't exactly good (at least in this book) at treating the subject matter in a sensitive way and while r@pe fetishes exist and this novel isn't the best at taking itself seriously I'd say it doesn't do that much harm (at least consdering the BL genre is already sprinkled with too much sexual assault for comfort anyway) and it overall tries to fix itself with the short story collection in volume 4, but yeah, it still exists.

That said tho, Scum Villain does have a cozy spot in my heart and I didn't yet have as much fun with a danmei like I did with this one, but my experience is pretty limited so take it for what it's worth.

Spoiler

Proud Immortal Demon Way is a harem novel in which the protagonist rises to power across all three realms, brings suffering upon those who dared to wrong him, and amasses a harem of hundreds of women, becoming the most powerful of all.

That’s not right.

Proud Immortal Demon Way is a danmei novel in which the protagonist suffers strife after strife, breaking his heart time and time again, only to finally by the end have it patched up by his kind and loving shizun who never truly wanted to hurt him, only misunderstood him. It’s the tale of a beautiful romance with many ups and downs.

No, still ...
