[Guide x Guide + nontraditional emotionless cultivation + beloved by all + plot-focused + a touch of ensemble cast + girl disguises herself as a boy]
[Why does a Sentinel with crippled mental powers get to be in my class?]
He’s from the Su family.
[Haha, the Su family cast him out. Even if he gets into our class, he’ll be completely useless.]
Even if he’s been cast out, he’s still a Su. Don’t go too far.
[Am I supposed to avoid his edge?]
[Whoa, so this is the mental impairment everyone outside talks about? If a white tiger that big counts as impaired, what does that make me?]
I said, don’t go too far.

[Xixi, thank you for helping me.]
It was nothing.
[Xixi, do you have a wish?]
…World peace, I guess.
[Xixi, do you hate me? Why have you been avoiding my eyes whenever you see me lately?]
I don’t know. I just think that tree looks a little too much like a tree. (For some reason, my heart won’t settle down.)
[That tree really does look a lot like a tree. Just like someone’s face, all red and impossible to miss.]
--
[You’re both Guides. Interstellar law says you can’t be together.]
Xixi stepped in front of the person behind her, shielding them with her body. Fearlessly, she looked up at the people on the dais and laughed wildly. “I, Su Xi, can do anything I set my mind to. No one dares stand in my way. I’d fight even the Heavenly Dao, let alone a bunch of you humans.”
[Content warnings]: Lots of original worldbuilding, nontraditional emotionless cultivation, very little romance. If that bothers you, please don’t read. For detailed content warnings, see the author’s note in Chapter One. Hope you enjoy the story and have fun discussing it~
