A cold, emotionally detached ghost of a senior disciple × a frail, universally adored junior sister
On the night demonic creatures overran Lingxi Village, Wen Qixi grabbed Guan Wuyou’s hand and ran for her life.
In a world overrun by demonic creatures, sects were the only refuge for ordinary people.
Guan Wuyou was thoughtful, meticulous, and considerate. The two looked after each other on their journey, and he made a name for himself by killing a demon lord with a single sword strike. He brought Wen Qixi safely into a sect, and she truly regarded him as a dependable older brother.
He was equally frank that he saw her only as a younger sister.
That was until she started looking for a husband and asked Guan Wuyou to help her choose. Her usually composed and self-controlled older brother fell silent for a long time, his face darkening by the moment.
One argument shattered the peace they had kept up on the surface.
The bond they called siblinghood twisted and rotted. She realized their relationship was growing increasingly confused and warped. They were no longer like friends, much less like fellow disciples, and things were developing in a direction she couldn’t put into words.
Guan Wuyou couldn’t understand why she wanted a partner.
If her old condition had returned, he could simply do what he had done before.
He would hold her in his lap in an intimate pose, keeping her trapped in his arms, then figure out how to feed her the blood from his wrist and coax her into drinking it until she was well again.
She absolutely could not fall for that bedridden invalid next door.
Thinking this, Guan Wuyou spoke with an affectionate yet chilling tone:
“Qingqing, I want so badly for our flesh and blood to become one, for us never to part.”
“Qingqing, you’re truly so cruel.”
“If you don’t love me, why did you pity me back then?”
Reader’s guide:
1. The male lead has never been with anyone.
2. The leads are not related by blood. The female lead was carried into the cultivation world before birth.
3. Their relationship grows increasingly warped.
