    💔 Transmigrated into the body of a wicked woman who drugged the Sword Master Lu Jiming in a cultivation novel, I found myself bound to a life-destroying Gu. My heart meridians were shattered at the start, and I was trapped on the Cliff of Repentance, awaiting death. To survive, I was bound to a merit system, but forced to make a cruel choice between "saving one person or saving a hundred." 🌪️ My black hair turned to snow, all to bear the pain of his heart-devouring curse. That cup of wine was the key that detonated an ancient curse. We were forcibly linked by the Heart-Devouring Gu; his pain was my pain. To share the backlash, my black hair turned to snow overnight. He grabbed my throat and demanded, "Why?" But I couldn't reveal the truth that the system was forcing me to do this. ⚔️ When the Frost Sword Master broke his vows for me, the entire sect treated me as a pawn, except for him—when I was thrown into the Cold Prison, he publicly announced, "This person is under my care." But he didn't know that my system was forcing me to help him transcend love and ascend to immortality. The price of mission failure is my complete annihilation... (That day, he crushed the rules of heaven, unleashing a rain of swords for me: "If the system wants you dead, I'll make it vanish into thin air first.")
