Looking for a Cultivation Partner to Ascend With, DM Me If Interested

The day Xiao A advanced to the Deification stage, she finally learned the secret of ascension:

Ascension requires choosing a position, applying, and being selected on merit.

Just look at the terrifying applicant-to-admission ratios for the popular paths: the Ruthless Dao, the Dao of All Living Things, and the Carefree Dao. Then look at the friendly ratios for the niche paths: the Reconciliation After a Breakup Dao.

Xiao A struggled for three days, then slowly logged onto the Immortal Internet and posted anonymously on the message board.

“Looking for an ascension partner. Female, eight hundred years old, Deification stage, planning to cultivate the Reconciliation After a Breakup Dao. Must be good at acting. Interested? DM me. Priority to anyone I’ve dated before, since we can skip the breakup and go straight to getting back together.”

If she’d known she would one day set foot without hesitation on the niche path the Heavenly Dao had prepared for its favorite sons and daughters, the Reconciliation After a Breakup Dao, Xiao A would have made her breakup with Xiao B more painful, dramatic, and unforgettable. Instead, she’d just turned around and walked away over the question, “If you and your sword fell into the endless abyss together, who would you save first?”

Xiao A: So, if you and your sword fell into the endless abyss together, who would you save first?

Xiao B: It’s been eight hundred years. How are you still hung up on that? I stopped making a fuss, so now you’re the one starting trouble?

Xiao A: Why are you looking at me? This is a real exam question.

Xiao B: ...

“I had a sincere heart only when I was young, and you were the only one who ever received it.”

Note: Xiao A is the female lead, and Xiao B is the male lead. The author is terrible at naming characters and hasn’t come up with names yet. Let me think a bit longer...
