[Fantasy romance + mystery + two powerful leads + sweet on the outside, dark within + younger male lead + ensemble cast + episodic arcs + dual cultivation with sword and umbrella]
College student Liu Li could have lived an ordinary life, but then some entity calling itself a “god” blew up the Earth.
Homeless Liu Li: ꒦ິ^꒦ິ My home is gone.
The god who destroyed her home turned around and told her and her family that if they wanted to live, they had better obey.
Liu Li had no choice.
When she saw Him, Liu Li: (◍•ᴗ•◍)
Behind His back, Liu Li: ╮(￣⊿￣)╭
After she “voluntarily” became His “most loyal, most dependable, most obedient subordinate,”
she and her family successfully settled in another parallel world. She became a top assassin, spending every day figuring out how to kill a god.
But whenever success was within reach, His lackey, the head of the Criminal Investigation Bureau, would show up right on time. That gentle, refined gentleman would simply stand there staring at her, wearing an innocent smile.
Then he started following her around every day, calling her “Big Sis, Big Sis.”
When Big Sis hit him, he’d get all teary. When he got jealous, he’d get all teary too.
Liu Li: (ー_ー)!! I was doing perfectly well here, so why is that man watching me every single day?
It wasn’t until one day, when she saw him standing alone atop a mountain of corpses, eating human flesh bite by bite, that Liu Li finally realized, “Holy crap! So you’re no good either.”
With a face smeared in human blood, the man looked at her and gave her an evil grin. “Likewise.”
(Content warnings): No rivalry between women. The focus is on cathartic revenge against scumbags. The female lead isn’t redeemed and is intensely self-serving. The story is all about push and pull. The male lead is mainly younger than her.
