Beautiful, powerful, and unhinged protective female lead × scheming, obsessive male lead
Morally questionable. If that's not your thing, don't read.
Feel-good power fantasy, one-on-one romance, devoted couple.
The female lead is possessive and has lacked a sense of security since childhood. The male lead acts obedient at first, then becomes a powerhouse. He pursues her, and she is pursued. He is deeply calculating and often jumps to conclusions, even getting jealous on his own. The female lead willingly lets him use her. Step by step, the two go from pursuing their own agendas to trusting each other. Expect angst and sweetness, tears and laughter. Their story spans past and present lives.
(Features a secondary couple.)
Spirit Controllers are the mark of the gifted on Qiu Yuan Continent. They are born with abilities far beyond ordinary people in stamina, speed, and strength. Each Spirit Controller has a spirit weapon of their own, but to unleash its full power, they need a Spirit Guide to sign a pact with them.
When they first meet, she is the legitimate eldest daughter of the Luo family, regarded by everyone as the future saintess of the Luo Spirit Tower and held in the highest esteem. He is no more than an orphan from the Spirit Guide clan who barely escaped death in a mass grave. Yet she picks him out at a glance to be her Spirit Guide, binding their lives together from that moment on.
“The Luo family has no use for dead weight. If you're going to be my Spirit Guide, prove you're worth keeping.”
“Don't think that having a face as pretty as someone from the Charm Clan will earn you any sympathy from me.”
She sees him as nothing more than a tool to help her cultivate, never imagining that one day she would fall deeply in love with him.
“You agreed to sign a pact with me. Just try running away.”
