[The Outcast: Wang Ye X Female Reader] The Chosen One

*Original heroine Ran Sheng x Wang Ye

*Canon couples remain intact. Brief appearances by Bao Lan, He Yu, Qing Rong, and others.

*Written purely to indulge my tastes, with a mountain of headcanons and melodrama. This is just an excuse to wrap up a jealousy plot.

*OOC. Turn off your brain and enjoy.

When Ran Sheng wakes up, the only thing she remembers is her name.

The good news: she's a naturally gifted outcast.

The bad news: this damned cultivation technique leaves her incomplete from birth. She has to find the person destined for her to become whole.

Then, at the Luotian Grand Ceremony, she sees a young man in a Taoist robe.

"Urgent question: How do I pursue a Taoist priest? Is there still time to read the Tao Te Ching?"

The priest is a good person, but he's devoted to the Way. With no hope of forming a bond with Ran Sheng in sight, she decides to find a replacement.

Wang Ye thinks he's incredibly unlucky.

On his first day at Mount Longhu, he somehow ends up entangled in a romantic debt.

Well, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. He supposes he can make this small sacrifice.

It's just holding hands and hugging. So why is his heart getting more and more unsettled? Why can't he figure out how he feels about her?

Then the person who got him involved tries to run off and find someone else.

Wang Ye laughs in anger and grips her wrist tightly. "Is this what you call loving me?"
