Synopsis

Sorry, the story is finished. If you'd like to read what happens next, message me privately. I won't charge.

Shen Jingque is an elder of Tai Xu Peak, a top sect in the cultivation world. After her master ascends, she's forced to inherit a mountain, a System, and its mission: take on six disciples and help them all become gods.

Her master left her a letter: “My disciple, I'll be waiting for you in the Upper Realm.” The System assigned her a mission: “Host, please save the six Chosen Daughters of Heaven and raise them into the most powerful beings in the cultivation world.” Shen Jingque expressionlessly tore up the mission list. “I just want to lie flat.”

But the first disciple fell from the sky: a seven-year-old beggar clung to her leg and called her Mom. The second crawled out of a demon's lair, covered in blood, and asked if she could kill people. The third was the cultivation world's greatest beauty, offered by her sect to the Demon Venerable as a cultivation vessel. She fled straight into Tai Xu Peak and said upon meeting Shen Jingque, “Senior, can I chop up the people chasing me?” The fourth had the bloodline of an ancient divine beast and had been imprisoned for ten years. The first thing she did upon seeing Shen Jingque was bite her arm, then threaten in a babyish voice, “Let me out, or I'll bite you to death.” The fifth was the reincarnation of a Buddhist holy maiden, thrown into a pond and drowned for being deemed an evil spirit. When pulled from the water, she pressed her palms together and asked, “Amitabha. Can I swear?” The sixth was a princess of the former dynasty. Her kingdom had fallen, her family was dead, and she'd been hunted for three thousand miles before collapsing at the gates of Tai Xu Peak, riddled with arrows. She looked up and asked, “Will you take me in? I can kill people for you.”

Shen Jingque: …System, I really just want to lie flat.

System: Host, your six disciples are going through the darkest moments of their lives. Please go save them and guide them with care.

Shen Jingque: And after I save them?

Cultivation, Ensemble Cast, No Romance, Sect Tournament

I want books like The Beloved Senior Sister, Brainwashed by Her Junior Brothers and Sisters. I really love it when the top disciples of different sects are at each other's throats but come together as one when it matters. I want a super passionate ensemble story. Those are so satisfying! But preferably with a happy ending.
