[Advance reading preview screenshot: 2026.2.11]

Luo Xueshi transmigrates into Sword Journey, the hit IP his company is promoting, and becomes the protagonist Lu Jiantu's senior fellow disciple.

In the original Sword Journey novel, the protagonist is kindhearted and pure, yet possesses a Heaven-Given Sword Bone that lets him summon sword spirits to possess him and unlock numerous forms. The contrast between those forms leaves countless readers begging for more.

Luo Xueshi... is simply indifferent.

He's not into that type.

But at a life-or-death moment, the boy who has always silently followed close behind him risks his life. A sword spirit possesses him, his eyes blazing like fire, as he shields Luo Xueshi behind him.

Luo Xueshi... suddenly gets it!

He starts enthusiastically promoting the protagonist!

Whenever he sees his fave, he can't keep the smile off his face, and his eyes sparkle. He painstakingly arranges displays, covering an entire wall with his fave's most glorious scenes. When he hears anyone speak ill of his fave, he draws his sword on the spot. Just thinking of Lu Jiantu's future as an unrivaled Sword Immortal makes him wake up laughing in the middle of the night.

But the more he promotes him, the more Luo Xueshi feels something is off.

The young man's passionate gaze lingers on him. He tells everyone how wonderful his senior brother is, collects the old hair ribbons and sword tassels he's used, and draws out Luo Xueshi's name when he calls to him.

Later, inside the cave residence, light and shadow gather, filled with the sound of Luo Xueshi's voice and laughter. Lu Jiantu's sword presses against his, and the young man's trembling gaze is full of lingering affection.

[My senior brother is indifferent to everyone, but he treats me differently.]

[I feel the same way about my senior brother.]

Luo Xueshi: "...?"

How does it feel like the Sword Immortal he's been promoting...

has turned around and started promoting him?
