When Ming Luyao was undergoing a trial in the mortal realm, she casually saved a young boy.
The boy was tormented by a group of bullies. In the dead of winter, he lay dying in the snow as they mocked him for being a bastard, his head bloodied. He was truly pitiful.
Ming Luyao saved him and said, "From now on, you're my little brother. Your name is Lu Yuyi."
"No one is allowed to bully you except me."
She kept him by her side for thirteen years and taught him to read and write, ride horses, and shoot arrows.
Later, the rites collapsed and the world fell into chaos. Lu Yuyi seized the opportunity to claim territory, and then led his armies to victory after victory.
On the day of his enthronement, the tipsy new emperor returned to Mingyi Palace and happily held out the imperial jade seal to Ming Luyao like a child, with none of his usual stern majesty.
He lowered his head and asked cautiously, "Do you like it?"
He wanted to give her the most precious thing in the world.
But instead of hearing his sister say she liked it, he felt a dagger sink into his chest.
Ming Luyao interfered with the fate of a mortal dynasty and nearly died beneath the heavenly lightning. Fortunately, she managed to stop in time by driving a dagger into Lu Yuyi's chest.
When she came to, her trial was complete. She had a beautiful tail, two pointed ears, and a flawless body of divine bone bestowed by the heavens.
All living beings who cultivate the Great Way are inevitably drawn to her.
Only her junior fellow disciple seems to look at her a little strangely...
Her junior fellow disciple is an ancient ferocious beast, with scarlet eyes and golden fur. He has a peculiar temperament, ruthless methods, and a huge, powerful true form. Everyone fears wherever he goes.
After three hundred years as Ming Luyao's fellow disciple, his mind still hasn't fully awakened. He secretly sneaks into her Crystal Palace and uses his claws to pluck the little person sleeping in a seashell out of bed.
Their master appears and scolds him. "You little beast, put her down!"
The junior disciple is forced to let go. He lowers his head and obediently lies down to be reprimanded, his long lashes falling to cover his large, deep-set crimson eyes with their vertical pupils.
When their master leaves, he slowly raises the claw that still reeks of her and licks it.
#I originally wanted to kill her, but who could have guessed that after our reunion, the thing I cared about most would be that she'd forgotten me#
[At first] 108 ways to kill my senior sister.
[Later] My senior sister's tears taste pretty good, too.
* The male lead is a ferocious beast, a lustful beast, and devoted to his daily routine.
* The male lead is a hopeless romantic, stubbornly so.
* The romance is bittersweet, starting in the mortal realm before moving into cultivation.
* The leads are different species in ways that can't be described. Yaoyao is a little fairy, and her junior disciple is a beast, who often behaves like one.
