In a Matriarchal World, Starting as a Substitute

Actor Ning Yang transmigrated into a cultivation world where women held power and men were subservient, becoming the substitute furnace vessel of the female Immortal Venerable Shen Muhan.

Until he bound himself to the [Regret System] The more women regretted their choices, the stronger he became. And so the acting began: When abandoned, he wept like a white lotus in the rain: "I wasn't good enough. Please don't be angry, Sister..." When framed, he smiled faintly through a cough of blood: "As long as you, little sister, are happy, I'll do anything..." Even when beaten until he was covered in wounds, he still murmured tenderly: "I'll love you all forever..." Everyone thought he was weak and easy to bully, and that his love would only bring him sorrow.

The fallen War God Ling Zhan swore an oath with his broken sword: "I'll kill everyone who wronged you."

But Ning Yang merely smiled and turned away, his white robes bright as snow, the teardrop mole at the corner of his eye vivid as blood. "Too late." "Your feelings are the very steps that will carry me to the summit."
