   The female protagonist is reborn and discovers she's been given a tragic, unrequited love story. During a mission, she encounters the awakened male protagonist, who is actually her grandmaster, though she's unaware of this. She's instantly lustful upon seeing him. Knowing he's her grand-disciple, he indulges her, leading to her growing increasingly unruly behavior. However, he's also incredibly gentle and doting on her.

   The protagonist is initially a gentle, abstinent, and rational master. Later, the female lead disappears for two hundred years, and he locks her in his room for some intimate moments.

There's no system, no cultivation nonsense, no divine beasts or spirit pets, and no tedious diary entries.

    The first book was about a mission, but it was very sweet with no angst and the system barely appeared. The second book had a little bit of angst, but the title already clearly indicated that the female lead was worshipping an ancestor, and her master was incredibly gentle, the kind of man who's like a mother to her. The third book's male lead was extremely powerful; he wasn't just an ancestor, but an ancestor who single-handedly created an ascension platform, allowing everyone in the cultivation world to ascend to the upper realm—it was incredibly satisfying.
