My Icy Senior Brother Is a Siscon

Xie Kexun heard news of his junior sister's marriage three times in his life.

The first time was on the day she was born. As the daughter of the head of the Xuanji Sect, Shi Miaoyin was born to a distinguished station. Envoys from countless sects came to arrange betrothals between her and their young masters. Some worried that the sect leader would marry his daughter off to Xie Kexun.

He thought the idea absurd.

The second time he heard news of her marriage, he and Shi Miaoyin had already spent seven years together, day in and day out.

Her betrothed didn't think much of her, but the sect leader considered him a good match.

Unwilling to accept it, Xie Kexun pressed his junior sister for an answer, only to hear her say that she was willing to marry a man she had never even met.

The third time, he was kneeling on the back mountain to receive punishment. His junior sister had been caught and brought back to the sect after running away from her wedding, and he was her accomplice.

He thought that as long as she didn't want to marry, he could defy the sect again and take her far away. But she cried and said she was willing, then told him to take care of himself.

Xie Kexun's heart shattered.

He went down the mountain to train, fell into a demonic trial, and was attacked by evil spirits in a situation with no hope of survival. Yet Shi Miaoyin saved him.

His junior sister held him tight. "Senior Brother, take me away."

So Xie Kexun resolved to brave any danger for her.

The sect leader was enraged. Xie Kexun clasped his junior sister's hand and said, "You arranged her engagement only to secure the sect's position."

"Then what if I become the best in the world?"

He would defeat everyone at the Immortal Dao Tournament and marry his junior sister openly and honorably, as the world's greatest sword cultivator.

Fu Lan transmigrates into a no-romance novel, penniless and saddled with the burden of getting into the inner sect of Guixu Academy. On her first day of swordsmanship class in the outer sect, the original story's male lead, Wen Yue, gives her a merciless assessment: "Amateur."

The male lead, Wen Yue, comes from a noble family and is unbearably self-important. He is upright but aloof, in short, a tsundere.

The world she's transmigrated into differs somewhat from the original novel. Everyone avoids him, and only Fu Lan, who knows the script, is willing to get close to him

though she's forced to.

She has no idea why Wen Yue, who should be so proud of his talents, spends every day hovering around her.

When he tutors her in swordsmanship, he brings her wound salve. When her mission runs into trouble, he patiently helps her pick lotus flowers. When she falls under a love spell, Wen Yue even offers himself to her.

The only thing that hasn't changed is his tsundere nature.

He wants to ease Fu Lan's financial burdens, but all he knows how to do is throw his wallet at her, leaving them both unhappy.

After saving her, he makes a snide remark: "I just don't want to be short one person to scold in tomorrow's swordsmanship class."

When she refuses his gift, he says coldly, "Take it. This cheap junk is just right for your talisman arts."

And later, it's still him.

When he's secretly jealous, he keeps reassuring himself that she's different with him.

When they're together, Fu Lan neglects him for her career, and he still eagerly offers to help her.

Even after she breaks up with him, he shows no trace of tsundere pride. He clings to her and refuses to accept it.

Fu Lan's swordsmanship is rough, and she thinks there's no chance she'll get into the inner palace. But it turns out the runes in this world are written in simplified Chinese.

After entering the inner sect, she and Wen Yue become roommates at Zhenliu Residence.

One is mediocre at swordsmanship, the other weak at talisman arts. They're almost expelled from the academy, so they strike a deal and help make up for each other's weaknesses.

After spending every day together, they can't hold back their feelings and confess to each other.

But just a few days after they become a couple, a huge club comes swinging down on them.

Dazed from the blow, Fu Lan says sadly, "Let's break up."

Even though Wen Yue protests a hundred times over, they eventually break up.

Later, Wen Yue cleaves a mountain with one sword and sweeps his blade through the clouds, cutting down the club that had torn the lovers apart.

Wen Yue stands amid a pool of blood, his aura murderous.

He thinks coldly: he and Fu Lan are clearly made for each other. Who gave anyone else the right to interfere?
