(One female lead) (Decisive and ruthless) (A low-profile old fox) (No System)
Shen Du, young lord of the Netherdeep Palace, made the Cangyan Continent tremble with his swordsmanship.
Tired of all the fighting, he faked his death and slipped away to the hills behind Qingxi Town. He had hoped to grow some radishes and vegetables and lie low in peace.
Who could have guessed that the struggling Qingxi Sword Sect next door would face a terrible crisis?
He agreed to a deal: he would fight on their behalf, and afterward, Ling Qingyao, the Qingxi Sword Sect’s senior sister, would tend his vegetable garden.
Ling Qingyao was proud and aloof, an otherworldly beauty and the pride of a small orthodox sect.
She thought Shen Du was merely a self-respecting but mediocre wandering cultivator who grew vegetables. She felt sorry for him, though sometimes she quietly wondered if he was hiding a great secret.
The vicious demonic cultivator feared by everyone outside spent every day in her company worrying about when his vegetable garden needed watering.
“Senior Sister Ling, the battle’s over. You should come back and pull weeds.”
The cool, aloof senior sister of an orthodox sect × the demonic sect’s young lord disguised as a farmer
Beyond the clash of blades, affection slowly takes root in the vegetable garden.
The plot may move slowly, but there will absolutely be only one female lead, and she won’t be a saint.
