[The seemingly gentle but deeply calculating scion of a prominent family, Jiang Zhou x the outwardly aloof but secretly mischievous wanderer, Luo Xun]
.
“Hey, did you hear? The top martial arts champion has defected!”
Luo Xun exclaimed, “The male lead defected too?”
.
After transmigrating into a book as the cannon-fodder side character Luo Chuanning, Luo Xun earned the title of “folk martial arts champion” through her skill in combat and became famous. Yet she had never met the other martial arts champion: Jiang Zhou, the male lead of the original novel.
“I hear he’s a spoiled young master, with a volatile temper. His love life caused such a spectacle that the whole city was groaning and complaining,” she said. “Better not to meet him. Jiang Zhou killed Luo Chuanning in the original novel. Why would I go out of my way to meet him?”
In short, Luo Xun didn’t have a very good impression of him.
.
But... as I said, the male lead defected. Luo Xun gripped a talisman in her hand and stared at the man before her, who thought he’d done an excellent job of disguising himself.
Her head was full of questions.
What do I do when my enemy keeps coming after me?
Why are you called that? Don’t go making up details on your own. The original author never gave you that name!
Wait, why is this Jiang Zhou different from the one in the original novel?
Huh? Why doesn’t the original heroine like Jiang Zhou?
What do you mean transmigrators have a System? Where’s mine?
Who’s the transmigrator here?
Transmigrating into a book is fake. It’s all fake. She never transmigrated into a book at all.
.
Male lead: “Forgive my frankness, but if you want to stay alive, Daoist, you’d best keep your distance from the Jiang family.”
Male lead: “You know him? Though I shouldn’t meddle, that man has a special status. You’d best not speak with him too much, lest you bring trouble upon yourself.”
Male lead: “How about you call me Senior Brother?”
Male lead: “Luo Xun, you seem... very concerned about your master.”
Luo Xun: “Stop right there! He’s my former master! Enough, stop being jealous!”
.
In short, it’s a story about falling in love while roaming the martial world together, then joining forces with the imperial court and the major martial arts sects to save the world.
Wouldn’t it be great if I gained a hundred favorites every day and made the top ten on the newcomers’ chart? Hehehe...
