After Everyone Coveted Him, the Sickly Beauty Defied Fate

[Dual male leads + transmigrate into a book + both reborn + secretly ruthless + happy ending]

When Xie Liyu transmigrates, he finds himself in the body of a frail, sickly beauty.

Who could have guessed that he would later help half the great powerhouses in the cultivation world rise to prominence!

After transmigrating into a book, Xie Liyu discovers that his body is frail and sickly.

Worse, his original body is made from Nongqi grass, which can greatly boost a cultivator's power if eaten.

Naturally, everyone covets such a miraculous cultivation herb.

Fortunately, ordinary people can't see his true nature.

But somehow, the great sects learn that Nongqi grass has appeared in the world. They activate an ancient tracking formation, usable once a month, and pinpoint his location, then come to hunt him down in force.

Surrounded on all sides by experts from the great sects, Xie Liyu despairs.

At the crucial moment, someone saves him.

He doesn't know who his savior is.

But to stop the ancient tracking formation from being activated, he has no choice but to win over the overlooked nobodies of the cultivation world who are being watched like prey... No, not nobodies, but down-and-out cannon fodder characters, and help them rise to prominence.

From then on,

half the cultivation world is his.

What's more, he discovers that the elegant and noble immortal lord he likes, Mu Qingji, is actually the terrifyingly brutal demon lord Mu Jiwen!

On a certain day of the lunar eclipse,

Xie Liyu trembles in a corner, his voice quavering. “Are you going to break your promise?”

Mu Jiwen's eyes are unreadable. “Mm. That's right.”

Knowing he can't defeat him, Xie Liyu gives up and waits for death.

But Mu Jiwen pins him beneath a peach tree, his gaze dark, and traps him there as his burning breath brushes Xie Liyu's flushed ear.

“Yes, I broke my promise... From now on, I'll protect you.”
