Strong, kind-hearted heroine x haughty young junior x gentle cross-dressing senior x strict, protective, doting master x aloof, merciless sword immortal who follows the ruthless path
Lan Huan has no talent and is considered useless. No sect will take her in.
Luckily, she joins a small sect with only a master, a senior sister, and a junior martial brother.
She has no spiritual roots, so her master prepares medicinal baths to help her strengthen her body and cultivate.
She accidentally falls asleep. In her dream, her master is in the tub with her, whispering tenderly in her ear, “I’ll massage you to help the medicine take effect.” But then his hand reaches…
She’s afraid of the dark at night and doesn’t dare sleep alone. Her senior sister looks cold, but still affectionately taps her on the nose and sleeps beside her.
In her dream, her senior sister has well-defined pectoral muscles and is no woman. He takes her hand and places it somewhere, then lifts his eyes. His cool composure is gone, replaced by a surge of inexplicable emotion. “Junior sister, would you help your senior sister?” Even his voice is a man’s, clear and melodious as a spring.
Her junior martial brother is younger than her and spoiled, looking down on her, yet he’s always finding rare treasures to help her strengthen her body.
Later, when her cultivation surpasses his, she pats her shorter junior brother on the head and smugly says, “Be good. Let me hear you call me senior sister.”
He also often appears in her dreams, tying her up with ropes and chains. His warm breath falls on her, making her shiver in fear. “Junior brother, what are you doing?”
As her cultivation improves, she uncovers a secret. Her beloved master, “senior sister,” and junior brother all draw on the same source of spiritual power, and there’s a faint trace of demonic cultivation about them. They seem to be the same person.
Afraid a demon cultivator has secretly infiltrated the sect to harm her, she brings nearly a year’s worth of questions to her master.
He listens, then fixes his eyes on her just as he does in her dreams. Beneath his gaze lies an unmistakable, obsessive sickness. His answer is loaded with meaning: “I believe that sometimes, what you encounter, my disciple, may not be a dream.”
She can hardly guess that there is only one person in the whole sect: him. Everything she sees, hears, thinks, and feels is simply him.
Reader’s guide:
1. Appears to be 1v4, but is actually 1v1. Happy ending.
2. Traditional cultivation, all to serve up this love triangle with a yandere master and his clones.
3. A two-person show: the male lead acts opposite his own clones and even moonlights as the NPCs.
