A cool-faced, warmhearted immortal of the righteous path × a disaster-bringing demon who says one thing but means another
*
Lu Hengling couldn't explain how she felt about Xu Rongqing.
By seniority, they came from the same lineage.
By talent, they were evenly matched.
But as for their personal feelings, setting aside their bond as fellow disciples, Lu Hengling couldn't say she particularly liked her.
Xu Rongqing was renowned for her dignified elegance, and her cultivation was formidable.
Who wouldn't like her?
But Lu Hengling found her utterly dull.
The righteous path was boring. At a young age, Lu Hengling became a notorious villain in the cultivation world and thrived in the demon realm.
And yet Xu Rongqing kept showing up in front of her every day, saying she would take her back to the sect.
Lu Hengling: ???
Why is everyone always trying to reform me and keep me in line?
Until she died by Xu Rongqing's sword, Lu Hengling was so furious from beyond the grave that she wanted to point at her and curse her out.
But when she woke up, Lu Hengling had returned to the days when she was Xu Rongqing's junior sister.
In Xu Rongqing's eyes, she was as naive and inexperienced as ever.
Lu Hengling gave a sinister smile as a brilliant plan came to mind.
She would seduce this immortal of the righteous path and drag her down from her lofty pedestal.
Before she could make a move, a universally adored junior sister joined the sect.
The new girl was sweet-tongued and well-behaved, yet Lu Hengling inexplicably took an instant dislike to her.
She watched impassively as the girl stole Xu Rongqing's opportunities and magical treasures, and even secretly plotted to destroy Xu Rongqing's engagement.
But even after Xu Rongqing was framed, imprisoned, and disgraced, the junior sister still wouldn't stop.
Suddenly, Lu Hengling no longer felt any satisfaction.
For someone as scheming as her, this junior sister had gone too far.

A little scene:
On the night before Xu Rongqing's execution, Lu Hengling went to visit her in the dungeon. She was still dressed in white, dignified and immaculate.
The once lofty immortal was now shackled, her eyes unfocused, with water risen to her waist.
Lu Hengling slowly approached and lifted Xu Rongqing's chin with a light laugh.
Xu Rongqing turned her head to avoid her, but then felt warm breath brush her ear.
“Senior Sister,” Lu Hengling murmured seductively, reaching out to tease her with a fingertip. “Tell me... if I were to cultivate with you right now, would that count as taking advantage of you?”
Xu Rongqing's pale face suddenly flushed red. She stared at the woman before her in disbelief, her junior sister who had always been her enemy
who was willing to leave the sect and become an enemy of the entire cultivation world for her.
One-on-one, happy ending
They're definitely going to cultivate together.
