[One-on-one romance, both leads have only ever been with each other, ensemble cast, happy ending, mutual devotion]
[Sharp-tongued, scheming, tea-loving junior disciple × composed, serene senior sister devoted to the Dao]
Lan Ci died, and it was a miserable death.
She was captured and tortured for hundreds of years before she finally died, yet she never even learned who had taken her. Furious, she decided to change paths.
She failed to become a god in her previous life, but this time she refused to believe she couldn't make it!
She devoted herself to the Dao and left the mountain to cultivate. Who knew the junior brother who argued with her every day would insist on following her?
“Senior sister, I'll go with you. You won't be alone.”
Lan Ci replied coolly, “You? You'll only hold me back.”
They fought, and Lan Ci lost completely.
“...”
Fine, he could come along. It didn't matter to her either way. She had no heart and no feelings, so one more person or one less made no difference.
After that, the two traveled together through the Demon Realm and the God Realm, encountering all manner of people and witnessing the warmth and coldness of human nature.
They saw towering mountains and flowing streams, low hills and trickling brooks, and sat quietly admiring the moon. They also heard the howling wind and struggled through the desolate, pale-gray stillness of life and death, before being forced apart.
The human world has known endless nights since time immemorial. People change, but true devotion does not.
After countless trials, Ji Wangli would still smile faintly and say, “You're still as single-minded as ever, Senior Sister.”
Lan Ci replied calmly, “You're no different.”

The main focus is the plot, told from an ensemble perspective.
The cultivation system is original to this story.
Expect plenty of verbal sparring and mutual devotion, but no tortured, tragic romance.
The plot unfolds gradually, without long stretches of face-slapping wish fulfillment.
Good looking, good looking, good looking, good looking, good looking
