After My Senior Brother and I Played Each Other at Our Own Game

【A deceptively sweet, darkly clever prodigy little junior sister × a noble, moon-bright senior brother who goes mad for love】 Mu Shaojing was born with extraordinary talent. At a young age, she became the foremost practitioner of both the Divine Martial and Spirit Command paths, earning the chance to ascend along with a mandatory pre-ascension mission: win over her senior brother, Wei Yunlou, and ensure her ascension goes smoothly. Determined to clear away every obstacle in her path to ascension, Mu Shaojing decided to pay this senior brother a visit. She brought him chicken soup. He wouldn’t drink it. She brought him spirit stones. He wouldn’t take them. She invited him to practice swordplay, but he was always distracted. Her senior brother was hopelessly clueless about romance. Mu Shaojing had had enough. She devoted herself to cultivation and advancement, and whenever she saw him, she went out of her way to avoid him. Win him over? What a joke. Men would only slow down her ascension. * As the heir to the foremost immortal sect, entrusted with the will of Heaven, Wei Yunlou had always played the part of a noble, aloof figure, bright as the moon and beyond reach. Until he received a life-prolonging mission: win over his junior sister, Mu Shaojing, and ensure he lives to a hundred. His junior sister was strong and beautiful, with a sweet smile. Before long, she had become friends with everyone. But Wei Yunlou didn’t believe in fate, or in any mission that could prolong his life. He would become the leader of the immortal sects. He couldn’t let anyone hold him back, not even his junior sister. He liked the chicken soup and spirit stones she brought him, but he couldn’t accept them. When she invited him to practice swordplay, her eyes shone so brightly they always made him lose focus. If she wanted his magical weapon and his twelve spirit meridians, he supposed that wouldn’t be out of the question either. At last, Wei Yunlou believed in fate. The trouble was, there were too many people around his junior sister. He was only one of them. If he were the only one by her side, that would be perfect. * After Mu Shaojing gave up trying to win him over, she realized that her usually gentle and refined senior brother seemed to be acting strangely. Every day, he would keep asking her, “Junior Sister, when you used to say you liked me, did you really mean it?” Mu Shaojing promptly put the blame elsewhere. “Heaven broke its promise. It won’t send down a tribulation or let me ascend, so it won’t let me get close to Senior Brother either. What am I supposed to do?” Wei Yunlou, who had once made obeying Heaven his sole purpose, shattered the Heavenly Gate and carved a path for her. “Then we’ll destroy Heaven.” 【Reader’s Guide】 ① One-on-one romance, both leads remain faithful to each other. ② All the good people get happy endings; the villains meet pretty miserable fates. ③ Extensive original worldbuilding.

Coming next: “The Pure-Hatred War God, Killing People Online” 【Kind-faced, cold-hearted god of war × gloomy, obsessive, sickly schemer】 People said Miss Ning of Wen Tian Temple had no spiritual roots, yet she could drive out demons and protect the people. She was a compassionate, righteous, truly good person, and nobody could find fault with her. Miss Ning merely gave them a cold smile. Ning Wuya was the only “ghost chaser” in the world. Just as the name suggested, she drove ghosts who had escaped the underworld back to the land of the dead. It was a fine calling that earned merit. Few people knew that compassionate Miss Ning had a private hobby: killing people. She killed all kinds of people, especially those who stood in her way. Her parents abandoned her to secure their own good fortune? She killed them. Her master tried to sacrifice her in order to ascend and become a god? She killed him. But there was a young Daoist priest at the temple next door, named Yin Wutu. He seemed gentle and kind, was always hovering around her, and kept saying, “A Ning, all I want is for you to be at peace.” For the first time, Ning Wuya didn’t feel the urge to kill someone to eliminate future trouble. But later, she learned that she and Yin Wutu were “fate-reversed twins”: if he prospered, she could never know peace; if he suffered, she would rise to success. Fate-reversed twins? Fine. She killed him. Who would have thought that even after becoming a ghost, this “harmless” man still wouldn’t leave her alone? Day and night, he would whisper in her ear, “A Ning, A Ning, you travel between the worlds of the living and the dead all the time, so why won’t you come visit me in the underworld?” So Ning Wuya really did go to the underworld, brought his soul back to the living world, and then promptly beat him until his soul was utterly destroyed. Eventually, people finally saw Miss Ning’s “true face.” They came to accuse her of defying tradition and betraying her master. Countless living people who feared and hated her, along with resentful ghosts she had killed, waited for her to fall from grace. Yin Wutu, whom she had killed more times than she could count, gazed at her with a faint smile from the human world, waiting for her to descend with him into the deepest hell. Ning Wuya walked slowly up the stairway to ascension, never once looking back. “Destroy the paths of gods and demons, sever the bonds of the mortal world, and help me attain immortality.” Theme: The road may be winding, but the future is bright.
