Senior Sister, Stop! The Heavenly Dao Has Already Begged for Mercy

[Teacher and student, one-on-one romance; both are powerful, though sometimes both suffer; slow burn; a touch of ensemble cast; includes some original worldbuilding]

After her family is inexplicably wiped out, Xun Le’an takes the assumed name Su Ning and sneaks into her maternal grandfather’s sect to investigate the truth. Who could have guessed that one remark from the True Person Xuanling, who had been in seclusion for a thousand years, would make her the senior-most disciple of the Ling Tian Sect? And the least powerful among the personal disciples, at that.

Gentle, refined senior brother: “Why does this person look so familiar? Never mind, forget it.”

Proud, sharp-tongued second junior sister: “Absurd! An Qi Refining cultivator is supposed to be the senior sister of a dignified Golden Core cultivator like me?! Wait, why can’t I beat her?!”

The disciples: “Who is she, and how is she so amazing? Long live our senior sister!”

Later, Xun Le’an’s identity is revealed.

Senior brother: “So she’s my little sister!”

Second junior sister: “So she’s the number one on the Lingyun List, the one I’ve always admired!”

The disciples: “So she’s the youngest Golden Core cultivator in the Nine Provinces’ history! Long live our senior sister!”

The True Person Xuanling, Shen Qingyue, suffered damage to his Dao heart after inexplicably falling from immortality. After a thousand years of solitude, a woman who resembles him so much appears by his side. Unable to endure it any longer, he says, “Dear disciple, I know a way to improve your cultivation quickly. Would you like to try it with me?”
