[System-based story + bickering couple + mandatory quests] An ancient marriage contract turns out to be an intelligent System, forcibly binding a man and woman who can't stand each other. By completing all kinds of "couple quests," they earn rewards.
The male lead is an unconventional, free-spirited heir to a family of formation masters who hates rules. His fiancee is the aloof, icy Saintess of the foremost immortal sect, who considers sect rules sacrosanct. Forced to meet because of their childhood betrothal, they can't stand the sight of each other and immediately try to tear up the marriage contract. But the moment it is ripped apart, it turns into two beams of golden light that enter their bodies. A mechanical voice rings out: "Marriage Contract System activated! Hosts: Male Lead and Saintess. Binding: Betrothed couple. Newbie quest issued: Hold hands in public within the time it takes one incense stick to burn, and keep holding them for fifteen minutes.
Quest success: Reward, 'Matching Hearts Pendant' (doubles cultivation speed). Quest failure: One person will be randomly punished by being made to run naked in public." The two freeze in shock. From then on, this bickering couple is forced onto a ridiculous path of "couple trials." "Quest One: Work together to kill a third-tier demon beast. The male must land the final blow." "Quest Two: Cheer loudly for each other during the sect tournament." "Quest Three: Spend one night together, in the same cultivation chamber." Through a series of mandatory quests that are awkward, dangerous, or heartwarming, they go from sabotaging each other to working together in perfect harmony. Before they know it, genuine feelings have blossomed between them, and together they uncover a shocking secret hidden in the marriage contract, one tied to their families' ancestors and the survival of the world.
Overall it's okay, but the group portraits are not well created. In the first few chapters, when the protagonist was being ridiculed, the protagonist's father was like a decoration and didn't say a word. Her combat power has collapsed. No matter how golden the heroine is, she is also a Nascent Soul cultivator. With her Nascent Soul experience, she can definitely crush Zhao or something, but her strength has been wasted in the end 😂
Overall, it's pretty good. Give me a system to bind the rich woman to [Star]
Topsy-turvy.
