[Gorgeous, resilient senior disciple X aloof, long-suffering junior disciple]
Older woman-younger man | A match made in heaven | Secret identity | Devoted love
Everyone said Nangong Dai was obsessed with her gentle senior brother, made life difficult for her frail junior sister, and tormented her taciturn junior brother. The whole sect despised her.
Yue Li sat in his wheelchair, gazing day after day at the crabapple tree outside his courtyard. Its branches had long since withered, and even when spring came around again, he still didn't see it bloom.
Nangong Dai came to visit, and Yue Li assumed she had come to humiliate him.
The young man closed his eyes, then said, unable to bear it any longer, "Leave. You needn't come again, Immortal Maiden."
Nangong Dai had once despised Yue Li:
She poisoned him, making him vomit blood and nearly die.
She humiliated him in public, ruining his reputation.
For the sake of her senior brother, she personally broke both his legs.
Realizing the wrong she had done, Nangong Dai swore not only to help her junior brother stand again, but also to return every honor to him.
Then she was accidentally poisoned by a love-binding toxin and cultivated with Yue Li.
She discovered that her junior brother's legs had miraculously healed. "You lied to me!"
He had deceived her for months. Nangong Dai had treated him kindly out of guilt, only to learn that he had been hiding the truth from her.
Furious, Nangong Dai threw him out.
Her usually desireless junior brother had changed. He grew obsessive, then deranged.
The wind over the Dead Sea was so cold that Yue Li would rather die there than keep loving her.
For her, he had spent ten years in the mortal world, and all he had to show for it was a body covered in wounds.
This time, in the dim waters of the Dead Sea, the girl cupped his broken heart in her hands.
"Don't be afraid. Your senior sister won't abandon you again."
