I Don't Want to Become an Immortal: The Great Immortal Is Jealous Every Day

(Major rewrite in progress. The new draft will completely replace the old one later.)

Only a few decades after ascending, Xuan Yao, an immortal from the Lingbi Palace in the Thirty-Three Heavens, became the wielder of the Primordial Artifact Xuanyuan Sword thanks to his unreliable master. Word around the Three Realms was that even the Heavenly Lord had to give him some deference.

The mighty immortal looked down on the Three Realms, aloof and cold, violent and sinister, sharp-tongued and heartless... A few years ago, he probably never would have dreamed that one day he would... fall in love with someone, humbly and miserably, like a lovesick puppy.

But his slightly clever, yet usually slow-witted and innocent "Imperial Brother" managed it.

When pursuing your beloved, you have to be gentle and subtle, letting your affection seep in quietly, and... keep repeating to yourself at all times: There's no point getting mad at an idiot. There's no point getting mad at an idiot. There's no point getting mad at an idiot!

The situation across the Three Realms was turbulent and unpredictable, and time and again they were swept into its tangled schemes. He could only do everything in his power to help, protect, and stand by him: the person he'd set his heart on was someone he'd love to the end, even if it hurt, even if he bled!

One conspiracy after another seemed to arise from a chaotic jumble of events, but in truth, a shocking secret lay hidden beneath it all...

One-on-one

Both pure and inexperienced, powerful leads, devoted to each other, happy ending, sweet romance. The further you read, the sweeter it gets, until it turns into pure sugar and makes the innocent masses of the Three Realms choke to death (a little angst makes the sweetness all the better).

Waiting for an idiot to catch on is like waiting for a thousand-year-old iron tree to bloom: it's painful, but sweet!

Lord Qichang: Who exactly are you calling an "idiot"?! Want to test my combat strength, which ranks among the best in the Three Realms? Hmm?

Theme: In a world of deception, where all living beings are pieces on a chessboard, schemes and treachery may abound, but all I want is to protect the person I love most
