When she was young, Li Yuemian chose a sword at Ten Thousand Swords Peak.
The sword's owner had to be the greatest in the world, protect her forever, and obey her every command.
As the young lady of an immortal sect in a power-fantasy novel, Li Yuemian used her memories of the plot to pick out the male lead and make him her senior brother for life.

People looked down on He Linsheng when he was nobody, but when he became famous throughout the land, he still didn't care. He had never taken anyone seriously.
He had only one person he couldn't stand: his little junior sister.
His little junior sister was spoiled and domineering. She expected him to attend to her while she practiced swordsmanship, while she bathed, and whenever she went out. He had to stay by her side and protect her, killing demons and monsters, and even punishing anyone who dared look at her for too long.
His little junior sister was mischievous and nasty. He could put up with her using him to test poisons and medicines and tormenting him for fun, but how dare she go after anyone else?!
His little junior sister was completely unfaithful to her word. One day, she casually told him that his face looked a lot like the sword cultivator she really wanted, and ordered him to leave.
He Linsheng was only too happy to go. He couldn't have wished for anything better.

Li Yuemian realized she'd picked the wrong person.
Why did the power-fantasy male lead look exactly like the villain when they were children?!
*
He Linsheng genuinely believed he hated Li Yuemian.
He hoped never to see her again, so she wouldn't get on his nerves.
He returned the sword to his little junior sister, then left and slashed up his own face.
Unfortunately, fate had other plans. He began dreaming about Li Yuemian again and again.
The first time, her eyes were red-rimmed and her voice trembled as she begged him to save her.
The second time, she shoved his restraint away with all her strength, panicked like a small beast caught in a trap.
Who knew how many dreams later, she curled up in his arms and bit his shoulder hard enough to draw blood.
He Linsheng thought he must have gone completely mad.
Determined to put an end to these absurd dreams, he searched everywhere for a solution. Just then, Li Yuemian came looking for him.
She told him to be careful in their next duel and not hurt her senior brother.
He Linsheng gazed at the face that haunted his dreams for a long time, then laughed in fury.
"You're so weak. How are you fit to be her senior brother?"

* One-on-one, both leads' first and only love, happy ending. A spoiled, vicious young lady × a spirited, power-fantasy hero
* Extremely melodramatic: a couple with a love-hate relationship, a proud hero who can't resist her in the end, fake replacement romance, childhood betrothal, and a mash-up of kinks
* His face will heal, because if he stays ugly, his little junior sister won't want him
