Blurb:
Good-for-nothing goofball junior sister × gloomy, unhinged senior brother | Cathartic and sweet
[Important: strictly one-on-one. The male lead has never liked anyone but the heroine and has never been in a relationship with anyone else. They are both completely pure in body and mind. This will be explained later in the story.]
Shen Ning transmigrates into a xianxia romance novel. The male lead, Pei Yuan, is a striking young man with a natural sword bone. As the first disciple of Tianque Sect, he should have spent his life slaying demons and upholding justice, becoming a paragon of virtue. But legend has it that after slaughtering the entire city of Fentian in the Demon Realm, he fell in love with the demoness Tang Yao, only to be deceived by her. Tang Yao gravely damaged Pei Yuan's sword bone before he killed her with a single sword strike, leaving her soul scattered.
After that, Pei Yuan's personality changed completely. He became dark and cruel, his moods unpredictable. He even abandoned the sword path, becoming the greatest laughingstock in the cultivation world. Everyone said he had long since gone mad from cultivating.
System: Your mission is to make Pei Yuan suffer from heartbreak for his entire life. As everyone knows, nothing is more unforgettable than a dead first love. You must protect Pei Yuan from harm until his sword bone has fully recovered. Only then can you suppress Tang Yao and prevent her from ever coming back to life.
Shen Ning: What do you mean, I have to protect Pei Yuan from harm?
System: Anything that can feel pain counts as harm~
Shen Ning: “Are you crazy?!”
So Shen Ning, the good-for-nothing junior sister at the very bottom of her outer sect class, has no choice but to get close to Pei Yuan, the eccentric senior brother of the inner sect. She practically has to stay by his side around the clock.
Pei Yuan, impatient: Come any closer and I'll set your separate quarters on fire.
Shen Ning, nodding like a pecking chicken: Okay, okay. Just be careful not to burn your hand.
Pei Yuan catches a cold, and Shen Ning gazes at him with starry eyes as he eats.
Pei Yuan: Look at me one more time and I'll dig your eyes out and string them into a bracelet.
Shen Ning: Okay, okay, but you absolutely can't eat chili peppers. They'll hurt.
Pei Yuan skips morning lessons and gets punished, so Shen Ning hurries to the Discipline Hall in the middle of the night.
Pei Yuan, his gaze dark: Are you here to laugh at me?
Shen Ning pushes Pei Yuan aside and beams. “I'm here to take your place. Are your knees okay? Remember to massage them when you get back.”
Pei Yuan: “...”
*
Pei Yuan was born with a sword bone and spent his whole life as a pawn used by his master. After giving up the sword path, he had no reason to keep living. Then, in the midst of his day-after-day self-destructive existence, Shen Ning suddenly barged into his life.
At first, Pei Yuan paid no attention to her. She couldn't even form a fire spell, and her spiritual power was practically nonexistent.
But little by little, Pei Yuan realized that this little rookie seemed to be protecting him, and with the utmost care. Did he really need her protection?
Ridiculous. How was he going to get rid of her?
*
One day, Shen Ning found her second senior brother in the sect's back mountains. He had returned from an expedition, gravely wounded by demons, so she dutifully helped him to the infirmary.
She didn't notice that Pei Yuan had appeared behind her at some point. A faint shadow seemed to fall over his peerlessly handsome face. A barely perceptible smile played at the corner of his mouth as his porcelain-pale fingers slowly curled into a fist, cracking sharply.
“, So you treat other people that way too.”
As Shen Ning watched thin streams of blood run between Pei Yuan's fingers, the mission progress she'd finally managed to raise started going backward again.
Shen Ning, distraught: “Master, let's talk this out. Just let go of your hand first.”
At last, Pei Yuan's sword bone recovered. When Shen Ning called up the System and packed her things to go home, Pei Yuan grabbed her wrist. In his other hand, he held a dagger.
The young man's voice was ice-cold. “If you dare leave, I'll stab myself in the heart.”
Shen Ning, used to his threats: “Go ahead. I'm going home anyway, so what's one more hole in me?”
Then Pei Yuan drove the dagger into his own heart without hesitation. Blood gushed out at once, soaking his chest red.
Shen Ning: “???”
System: Warning! Warning! Mission progress has returned to zero! Host, continue the mission or you will remain in this world forever!
Reader's guide:
1. The male lead has no first love. He only loves the heroine, from beginning to end.
2. The heroine grows over time. She's not perfectly characterized and isn't a strong, independent heroine.
3. A sweet romance. The feelings between them are very mutual.
4. Both are each other's first and only partner, completely pure. Happy ending. The story will not be abandoned. I welcome criticism of the story's shortcomings.
