[The female lead is not a good person.]
[A heartthrob. Lots of male love interests, all sexually inexperienced.]
Everyone in the Immortal Alliance knows Ji Shixu.
A brilliant young genius, he joined the Heavenly Sword Sect and, in just three years, eradicated every demon and broke through to Foundation Establishment. He's practically the perfect model for a domineering male lead, and he has no shortage of admirers.
But everyone knows Ji Shixu is devoted to the Dao. He has committed himself to the Heartless Sword and cast aside the seven emotions and six desires of the mortal world. Romance is no longer something he considers.
Behind the scenes, however, rumors have been circulating...
“They’re secretly saying I had to leave the righteous path and practice the Heartless Sword because I have a hidden condition.”
Ji Shixu stared blankly at his junior sister Xia Zhi. She glanced away guiltily and made eight hundred fake gestures in the space of a single incense stick, but couldn't manage a single excuse.
“Junior Sister, can you tell me why all this happened?”
He wouldn't ask such a question without reason. Given Ji Shixu's personality, he would have gathered all the evidence before opening his mouth.
Xia Zhi felt a chill run through her and racked her brain for a way to bluff her way out.
Ji Shixu interrupted her frantic thoughts.
“But this works out. It saves me the trouble of proving my innocence. Junior Sister, are you satisfied now?”
(Female lead's perspective)
The good news: Xia Zhi had been bound to the Female Lead System since birth. The bad news: there were twenty female leads, and she was just one of the women in the male lead Ji Shixu's harem. According to the setting, Xia Zhi would become the Demon Venerable thirty years later. But the male lead would reform her, and she'd turn over a new leaf, give up her old ways, cook for him, and share a bed with all the women in his harem.
“What era is this ridiculous ghost story from?”
Of course Xia Zhi refused to cooperate, leaving the System in a panic. With no other choice, the System made a decision that went against its ancestors' wishes: it confiscated the male lead's equipment. Until Xia Zhi finished the plot, he wouldn't be able to act like a man.
They each had to give a little. Xia Zhi might become the first to sleep with the male lead, but she still had to follow the original plot and become his devoted partner. The core problem wasn't solved at all, and neither side was happy with the deal.
Xia Zhi dragged her feet and refused to do what the System wanted. So the System resorted to threats and bribes, using its golden finger and electric shocks to Xia Zhi's brain to alternate a slap with a sweetener, and the plot began in a shambles.
Meanwhile, rumors spread through the Immortal Alliance. They said Ji Shixu was practicing the Heartless Sword and had cast aside the seven emotions and six desires.
Whenever she heard it, Xia Zhi felt exasperated. This guy was so unlucky. His little guy was unlucky too, sacrificed in the middle of her arguments with the System.
But it was a good thing she had no morals, so she pretended not to know.
Until Ji Shixu appeared in front of her like a ghost.
“Are you satisfied now, Junior Sister?”
It seemed... he had already seen all of this coming.
Reader's notes:
1. All the male characters are sexually inexperienced. The male lead, Mr. Ji Shixu, never has a harem in the book. He spends the whole time chasing the female lead.
2. A heartthrob; the female lead is not a good person. Ji Shixu is the nominal male lead, but he isn't the only one.
3. Happy ending, so no little guys are harmed in this book.
4. Updates every other day when there are no rankings, and follow the rankings when there are. Daily updates after the story goes premium.
