#The Cultivation World's Funniest Relationship Expert of the Year# Absurdly Funny Feel-Good Story #Anti-PUA #Teacher-Student Romance #Sweet on the Outside, Dark Within #Clear-Eyed Heroine #System#
Xie Wan, a relationship counselor, spent eighty-one consecutive days coaching clients in the late stages of “love-brain syndrome.” Overworked and overwhelmed, she died of a heart attack brought on by sheer frustration, only to wake up in the cultivation world.
To stay alive, she was forced to return to her old profession, treating all kinds of defiance... No, all kinds of love-brain syndrome!
Love-brained junior disciple #1: “For him, I'd give up the Great Dao and follow him for the rest of my life!”
Xie Wan, handing over a custom storybook: “How moving. Why not read this first: ‘Ninety-Nine Ways for Love-Brained Fools to Die: I Took a Heavenly Tribulation for My Dao Companion, Who Ran Off with My Best Friend.’ It'll help you calm down.”
Love-brained junior disciple #2: “He tricked me into giving up my spiritual bones, but he still cares about me!”
Xie Wan, pouring a pot of “Heart-Piercing Tea”: “Come on, tell me all about it. I'll analyze the victim's mindset in this immersive PUA situation, and we can also discuss the 108 possibilities for the Art of Regrowing Spiritual Bones.”
Xie Wan became the cultivation world's dreaded “Couple-Breaking Expert,” “Anti-PUA Mentor,” and “Trash-Man Detector.”
But... why is her deranged master, who kicked her into an icy river as a greeting and casually tossed her a ten-thousand-year-old salted fish as payment, looking at her more and more strangely?
Gu Hanzhou, the strongest cultivator in the world: “Little one, you've got a hard head. How about letting your master try to guide you through a tribulation first?”
Xie Wan, silently pulling out her notebook: “...Master, your case of ‘late-stage love-brain syndrome complicated by deep-seated persecutory delusions’ is pretty complex. It'll cost extra.”
