After outworking the Three Realms, Demon Venerable Chi Su retired in a hurry, gravely injured but still carrying her entire cultivation foundation.
The hands that once crushed stars now send stabbing pain through her meridians at the slightest use of demonic power.
Until she gets bound to the [Easy Win System]: as long as she relaxes and does nothing, rewards will automatically land in her lap.
And precisely by the riverside, she picks up a beautiful amnesiac who seems somewhat useful, but can't manage a thing on her own...
The beauty Jiang Jinyue is convinced that Chi Su is a weak little cultivator. She uses sword techniques for slaying demons to chop vegetables for her, and spells that freeze a thousand miles to chill her watermelons.
Chi Su looks at the three mu of spirit fields ruined by sword energy and the watermelon frozen to absolute zero, and falls silent.
Her former nemesis, now a clingy tagalong, firmly believes she's a level-five weakling.
The beauty frowns and helps her "weak" self up, her gaze clear and determined. "Your spiritual power is so faint. I'll protect you from now on."
Chi Su looks at the System notification, [Protected by the Immortal Lord, Lazy Points +999], and lowers her head to hide a smile. "Then... thank you, big sister."
Jiang Jinyue uses her life-bound divine sword to peel apples for her, and supreme immortal arts to dry her clothes.
Chi Su watches her nearly blow the kitchen sky-high and falls silent again.
For the sake of a peaceful retirement, she has no choice but to go into childcare mode:
She passes off a phoenix egg as a chicken egg and disguises an artifact as a fire poker.
She uses the flawless cultivation rewarded by the System to repair her foundation, all while playing the role of a frail woman who can't care for herself.
And whenever Jiang Jinyue looks at her as if to say, "What would you do without me?" she plays along with practiced enthusiasm. "Big Sister is amazing!"
Chi Su is really getting into her act when an enemy kicks down her front door.
Her hapless roommate instantly regains her memories and turns into a cold, aloof Immortal Lord.
As enemies arrive, Jiang Jinyue stands in front of her with sword in hand.
Chi Su hides behind her, using the System's [Flawless Cultivation] reward to repair her foundation as she quietly reminds her, "The one on the left looks the meanest. Be careful, big sister."
Then the mastermind reappears, bringing overwhelming demonic energy with him. Jiang Jinyue's memories return. With her Frostglory sword pointed at the heavens, her voice trembling, she says, "Chi Su, let me protect you this time."
But Chi Su slowly rises to her feet and dusts off her clothes.
She reaches out, presses down on Jiang Jinyue's sword hand, and lets a long-missed, arrogant smile curl her lips.
"Five hundred years ago, I could slaughter the entire Demon Abyss by myself."
"And now..."
She lifts a finger. All things fall silent, and the demonic energy filling the sky vanishes like smoke.
"These pathetic wretches aren't worth you lifting a finger."
All the immortals and demons in the sky are struck with fear.
Jiang Jinyue sheaths her sword, the corners of her eyes reddening as she grabs Chi Su by the sleeve.
"So you were faking that bloody cough, and your weakness was a lie."
"Then when you said, 'I like big sister best'... were you lying to me too?"
Chi Su blinks, then suddenly presses a hand to her forehead and leans on Jiang Jinyue's shoulder.
"Ah, I think my old injury is acting up again."
"It'll only get better if big sister gives me a kiss."
Chi Su immediately collapses feebly to the ground, clutching Jiang Jinyue's sleeve with tears in her eyes.
"They... they all said you were someone I picked up to warm my bed..."
The immortal sword in Jiang Jinyue's hand shudders, and its sword energy sweeps across the eight directions.
She turns around. Ice forms in her eyes, though her voice is frighteningly hot.
"Who said that?"
"I'll kill them."
"As for you..." She bends down and wipes away the tears that aren't even there from the corner of Chi Su's eye. "Warm your bed? I approve."
