[Cultivation + two powerful leads + devoted to each other] [Sharp-tongued heroine x loyal, protective hero]
On the brink of death, Shen Tao transmigrated into the cultivation world. The moment she opened her eyes, she found a “Villain Redemption System” in her mind.
The System told her that Xie Tinglan was a madman destined to destroy the world, and that she had to win him over if she wanted to go home.
Everyone kept telling her:
“He massacred a village and killed his fellow disciples. He’ll turn into a demon sooner or later.”
“You were chosen by fate. You’re the only one who can kill him.”
But the closer Shen Tao got to him, the more she felt something was wrong.
The ruthless Xie Tinglan of the rumors was actually holding back the rifts threatening the world, bearing the blame, and shouldering an impossible fate.
And the System in her mind was full of oddities, nothing like an ordinary System.
She tested him and stayed on guard against him.
But he only looked at her and said quietly, “Don’t trust it.”
The entire immortal sect was waiting for her to raise her sword and slay the demon, but Xie Tinglan spoke in a hoarse voice:
“Shen Tao, this time, don’t die for me again.”
Shen Tao gripped her sword tightly and looked up at the gods filling the hall and the so-called destiny.
“What if what I’m hearing isn’t destiny?”
This time, she would be no one’s weapon, and she would not accept her fate.
They treated her as a chess piece and him as a sacrifice
So she would destroy the System, tear down the immortal sect, and take back the man who was supposed to die at the hands of fate.
