Battle Through the Heavens: The Straight Path to Love [Revised]

When he opened his eyes, he had transmigrated into Nalan Yanran from Battle Through the Heavens. But his name was clearly Nalan Yanran. He didn't want to give up the gender he had originally been born with, and he wasn't willing to shirk the responsibilities of the Misty Cloud Sect. He didn't want to marry Xiao Yan, but he never expected Xiao Yan to have already fallen for him. As he navigated the tangled path toward settling the old feud between the Misty Cloud Sect and Xiao Yan, he maneuvered among the various factions until he was covered in wounds. How far can a stubborn, struggling weakling, no more than an ant, accompany a heaven-blessed prodigy? Xiao Yan x Nalan Yanran, who transmigrated into a book, has no System and wants to retire to the mountains XXXXXXXXXX Content warnings: 1. The shou undergoes a gender change. The first chapter opens with a warning, so you can leave right away if you prefer. 2. There are several side pairings, including Hun Tiandi x Xiao Xuan, Purifying Lotus Demon Sage x Purifying Lotus Demon Flame, and Han Feng x Yao Lao. All are tragic, angsty romances. 3. The story has plot holes. Feel free to discuss them happily and peacefully in the comments, but don't insult me. My writing skills are limited, so I apologize in advance. XXXXXXXXXX Why do I call this pure romance? Because the shou's goal, from beginning to end, is to regain his male body, and he has always considered himself a man, dressing as one and having the heart of one. Theme: A lifetime of entanglement
