The moment Wen Yuyue transmigrated into a book, she became bound to the Deathbound System.
She was the arrogant, vicious female antagonist in the story, and her fate was set in stone:
She would torment the lowly young villain for the rest of her life, drive him to become a darkened destroyer of the world, and ultimately be slain by his own hand, her soul annihilated.
The System coldly prompted: [Host, keep courting death to raise the villain's corruption level.]
And so, the world saw the junior sister of the sect torment the filthy, baleful young man day after day.
Everyone laughed at Xie Linyuan, calling him vile and saying he deserved to be bullied.
But no one knew.
She snatched his spirit herbs in public, then secretly slipped him a thousand-year-old immortal medicine.
She pretended not to care as he was punished, then secretly set up a formation to shield him from every bolt of heavenly punishment.
Every word she said was cutting, but her eyes held the only tenderness he would ever know.
Born in purgatory and raised in misery, the cold, obsessive young man should have become utterly heartless and slaughtered all living things.
Yet he fell for the tenderness she secretly gave him.
He clutched the hem of her robe, his eyes consumed by madness and obsession.
