Everyday girl heroine vs insanely cool, arrogant male lead
Jiang Yi transmigrates into a novel titled The Heaven-Defying Sword Emperor. In the story, her original self is the cannon-fodder fiancee of the domineering male lead, and she's about to trigger the novel's first face-slapping moment: breaking off their engagement, then getting humiliated by him.
Her vision goes dark. She forces her trembling legs to hold steady under the young man's cold, unrestrained gaze and manages to say:
“I want us to become sworn siblings, siblings with different parents! An elder sister is like a mother, so when you make it big, remember to take care of your big sister.”
Caught between kneeling and clinging to the protagonist's leg and striking first to eliminate him, she makes an unconventional choice: she tries to make the domineering male lead her sworn younger brother...
...and fails.
It seems the vicious-supporting-female-lead curse has kicked in, because every time the two of them meet, the male lead gets into trouble.
Either someone steals a treasure he's struggled to obtain, or she causes some kind of trouble and drags him into it...
After it happens again and again, she feels a little embarrassed. So she decides to fake her death and get away from the protagonist's group, finding a scenic place to lie low until the story ends.
The youngest junior disciple in Tianyan Sect's inner court seems to have gone mad lately. It's true that he killed his father and brother, but that was before he joined the sect. He's a good kid now.
Still, something really does seem wrong with him lately.
After forty-nine rounds of tempering with the Nine Heavens' Profound Thunder, he breaks through with the Guiyi Sword. Among his fellow disciples, someone sees the youth point his sword toward the heavens.
His life should have been one of decisive slaughter, looking down upon all living things. He was the person with the greatest chance of attaining immortality in a thousand years.
But somewhere no one knew of, the youth, bright as the moon, had gone mad several times. He crossed the entire Sea of Shattered Chains in search of the slightest possibility, then let his delusions grow unchecked. In a single moment, he fell into the mire and willingly put on the iron chains.
Jiang Yi causes trouble again, this time for an ancestor whose cultivation is more than twice her level.
Under the immense pressure, she instinctively calls out:
“Xiao Zhu, save me!”
Thunder roars. The gentle disguise slowly fades from the eyes and brows of her newly acquired young disciple, revealing a deep, surging malice and possessiveness. Beneath that youthful, obedient face is unmistakably the face of someone she once knew.
Something seems a little off...
“I only thought of you as a younger brother, not like that!” she cries in alarm.
Only when she is completely surrounded by a familiar scent and the curtains fall does the youth speak, his voice filled with frustration and wounded indignation:
“A younger brother? ...That works too.”
“...A real little brother, okay?”
A heads-up about the protagonist's name: I'm not very good at coming up with names. The protagonist's name doesn't have any special meaning; I just picked one at random. (That doesn't mean I don't love the characters I write. The heroine is my eldest child!)
