🔹[Tough as a rush, sunny transmigrator heroine x scheming, obsessive Taoist who craves her love]

Wen Yuan transmigrated into the cultivation world and immediately met the young Taoist who would one day slaughter his way through the Three Realms.

The young Taoist was named Xie Lianchen, and was her nominal older brother. Back then, he was obedient, innocent, and utterly devoted to her.

He saved Wen Yuan at the cost of having his soul shattered, leaving only a wisp of his spirit sealed inside a sword.

That remnant spirit had lost its old feelings and forgotten the love he had once felt.

Looking at a world where everything had changed, Wen Yuan fell into despair. She faked her death to escape and decided to disappear into the mortal world for good.

When Xie Lianchen's soul was restored, he was consumed day after day by regret and a longing that gnawed at his bones.

But he could no longer find even the faintest trace of Wen Yuan anywhere in the world.

He searched from the highest heavens to the deepest underworld. When they finally reunited, she already had Senior Brother Yan by her side.

Overwhelming terror and jealousy consumed Xie Lianchen.

He imprisoned Wen Yuan at his side and used the blood of their kin as a sacrifice to set up a secret formation, making her unable to leave him in any lifetime.

Defying all moral boundaries, he extracted Wen Yuan's threads of affection and obsessively forced her to bear his child again.

The world lamented that Xie Lianchen, who once wielded his three-foot blade only to slay the wicked, now slaughtered entire sects and spent his days lost in the illusory image in his mirror.

Before the shrine to him in Taiping Village, he slowly melded his own flesh and blood into the statue of a young girl, murmuring softly:

"Yuanyuan, I offer you all the flesh and blood of this body."

"From now on, year after year, we will share the same shrine."

A little scene:

On the day Wen Yuan married Senior Brother Yan, Xie Lianchen arrived through a sea of blood, his white robes drenched in red.

His crimson, slit-pupiled eyes fixed on her. "Little sister, who are you marrying while I'm away?"

He tore open his chest with his bare hands and held up the heart covered in tiny carvings of her name. He smiled, grief-stricken and deranged:

"From now on, every beat of this heart will be for you alone, little sister. From body to soul, I am yours."

[Content Warnings]

1. A tragic, angst-filled love story with an old-fashioned, melodramatic feel. Romance-focused. Happy ending.

2. The male lead has no sexual history. He's an innocent, devoted puppy in the beginning, but becomes extremely possessive later. His love for the heroine is predatory, extreme, and unscrupulous. He acts cruelly, and gradually becomes twisted in both body and mind.

3. Includes coercive seduction and abduction. Starting in volume three, the story contains extensive dark coercion, bloody scenes, and disturbing content. Read with caution. (You can read the author's note after chapter one first.)

4. The heroine has mild psychological trauma. Both the male lead and the second male lead are awful people with genuine feelings.

[Gentle on the outside, strong on the inside, wooden little sister x crazy, lovesick, wicked older brother]

Xu Yuexiao was like any ordinary high school girl: she tied her ponytail neatly with a black hair tie and wore the glasses that marked her as a good student.

If there was anything different about her, it was that Xu Yuexiao was a little... unattractive.

After transferring from the countryside to Yucheng, she spoke with an accent, was severely nearsighted with dull eyes, and had a face full of acne.

But Xu Yuexiao's mother was beautiful. Using that lovely face, she resorted to shady methods to get pregnant and marry into the family of a wealthy businessman in Yucheng.

That businessman was Xie Yuezhou's father.

And so the older boy she had fallen for at first sight as a child became her brother.

Xu Yuexiao found it hard to accept.

What she found even harder to accept was that Xie Yuezhou didn't want them to be siblings. He wanted them to be lovers.

The innocent, self-conscious good girl had always been naive. Faced with Xie Yuezhou's almost bewitching closeness, she finally fell apart.

Every night at midnight, her phone would receive a message: [Xiaoxiao, come to my room.]

Led on by Xie Yuezhou, Xu Yuexiao did one reckless thing after another with him.

Until Xu Yuexiao realized it had all been revenge, planned by Xie Yuezhou long ago.

Her disgraceful photos spread throughout Yucheng, and people accused her of being just like her mother.

Xu Yuexiao quietly ended this absurd first love and quietly accepted that Xie Yuezhou had found a new girlfriend.

After the college entrance exams, she left Yucheng without a word.

As soon as she reached the legal age for marriage, Xu Yuexiao married her college classmate, Lu Yu.

She thought she had finally found a peaceful life of her own.

Until one day, she came home and saw her husband being forced to his knees, a man's foot planted on him.

The man was her older brother, Xie Yuezhou.

A Thai tattoo meaning "moon" marked the side of his neck. With half his blood Thai, Xie Yuezhou was devastatingly handsome, with an almost aggressive beauty.

Xie Yuezhou looked at Xu Yuexiao and smiled, casual and feral. "Little sister, do you want to save him?"

"You have two choices. First, divorce him."

He leaned closer to Xu Yuexiao and slipped several small, square packets into her hand. "Second, see how many of these you and I can use up tonight."

[Reader's Guide]

1. The male lead was not responsible for the photo incident. Happy ending.

2. Neither the male nor female lead is a perfect character.

The male lead is a lovesick, crazy obsessive who will do anything for love.

The heroine has psychological scars from her family of origin and trauma from things in her past. She is quiet and melancholy, sensitive yet strong, and somewhat conflicted. She is not a sunny, instantly likable heroine. She will have a character-growth arc later.

3. This story has an old-fashioned, melodramatic feel and includes some painful scenes, so readers who are extremely protective of the heroine should stay away.

Please don't label the male lead a "disgusting man" after reading only one excerpt. Anyone who has read the free chapters wouldn't describe him that way.

4. Important clarification: the leads have no blood or legal relationship as siblings. The heroine does not have a sexual relationship with the male lead while underage. All illegal acts in this story will be punished to the full extent of the law.

5. Screenshots of the story tropes, inspiration, and some notes were saved in 2023; screenshots of the blurb were saved in July 2026.

Theme: Even in the mud, true feelings can be found; even a terrible person can come to cherish someone.
