Su Mu transmigrates into the cultivation world and becomes the first disciple of a top powerhouse.
First disciple of the sect (x), scapegoat big sister (check)
At the sect gathering, Su Mu is busy enjoying the gossip.
"What? The Grand Elder's crane has been plucked bald? Who'd do something so awful?"
After catching her junior brother's pleading look, Su Mu swallows her words and forces out, "...Yeah, that was me."
"Good grief, who would spread such a vicious rumor that our sect leader seized his position illegitimately?"
Her master guiltily looks away. A vein throbs at Su Mu's temple. "Yes! My master is clearly more capable. What gives you the right to be sect leader? How can you sleep at night?"
Until...
"You were spying on body cultivators while they bathed?!"
Everyone turns to look at her in unison.
"N-no, this really wasn't..."
The little junior sister in her arms swishes her tail, her watery fox eyes pleading pitifully.
Magic cultivators and body cultivators have never gotten along. At worst, they'd fight it out. Su Mu grits her teeth. "Yes! I was watching. So what if I was?"
"My family, Wei, has strict rules. Since my virtue has been compromised, I've come today to ask for your hand in marriage."
"..."
"..."
"Ahem. I'll approve this marriage on your behalf."
"Master?!" Su Mu instantly turns into a screaming chicken.
"Shh. I wouldn't let you lose out. The young master of the Wei family is a prodigy, and besides, his family is incredibly rich, wealthy enough to rival the whole realm!"
"Senior sister," says the little junior sister, licking her paw. "I saw it all clearly: abs, pecs, biceps. He's got an amazing body!"
Even her junior brother has switched sides. "I hear body cultivators are always short on pills. If I can get in with them, won't I be rolling in it?"
Wait, how did taking the blame end with me getting married off?
Wasn't this Wei guy here to pick a fight? How did he end up asking for my hand?
