Huo Qingzhi used to be a workaholic in her previous life. After dying, she became the younger sister of a genius in the cultivation world.
She happily lay flat for forty years, admiring beautiful people and savoring delicious spiritual food. If the sky fell, her brother Huo Qingxuan could hold it up.
But then the sky really did fall.
Her brother split open a secret realm with one sword to rescue his fellow disciples, only to disappear into the depths of the void, his soul lamp about to go out.
The whole sect waited for a laugh: Surely that good-for-nothing junior sister who relied on her brother would have her Dao heart shattered this time?
Huo Qingzhi closed the door to her cave, then quietly brought out the workaholic skills from her previous life.
Until a cold System forcibly bound itself to her:
**[Task: Cycle spiritual energy five hundred times, swing your sword five thousand times, train your body under gravity for three hours]**
**[Failure penalty: stabbing pain in your meridians]**
**[System functions: cultivation assistance only. It knows nothing else]**
No rewards, no explanations, only punishments and endless tasks.
But Huo Qingzhi didn’t care. She had been ready to work herself to the bone anyway.
From then on, Liuyun Peak’s atmosphere changed completely:
The lazy junior sister started swinging her sword every day until she collapsed and training until she coughed blood.
At the sect tournament, she used her early Foundation Establishment cultivation to defeat a mid-stage opponent with a single sword strike, leaving the whole crowd speechless.
In the secret realm trials, she worked herself to the limit and fought so fiercely for resources that the prodigies began to question their lives.
Everyone said she had gone crazy, obsessed with her brother.
Huo Qingzhi trained while coughing up blood. “I just want to find my brother.”
It looked okay, but after the involution, few people cared enough about the heroine. Everywhere she went there were people trying to blame her.
