On her first day of retirement, interstellar Guide Jiang Zao transmigrates to an age of cultivation where the laws of heaven and earth have crumbled.
The goddess they worship has fallen into a deep slumber. The world's spiritual energy is depleted, its ley lines severed, and demons and monsters run rampant.
Every cultivator suffers extreme pain when their spiritual palaces go into turmoil, with no way to stop it. They are tormented day and night.
For thousands of years, they have faithfully prayed for the goddess to answer them, once again show mercy to this parched land, and save its suffering people.
But the goddess stands on a holy dais with her hands clasped, never offering the slightest response.
Madness and slaughter still cover the continent. Jiang Zao, who has no cultivation at all, struggles to survive in the bone-shattering grounds at the very bottom of society, never noticing that the goddess's hand gesture is exactly the same as the opening movement she uses to perform mental guidance.
Until one snowy night, Jiang Zao risks her life to save a cultivator whose spiritual palace has shattered.
The man lies in the snow, eyes crimson as blood. The agony makes him thrash like a trapped beast until he finally collapses, exhausted, his chest barely rising and falling.
Seeing the symptoms of the cultivator's illness, Jiang Zao recognizes something familiar.
Out of professional habit, she uses mental guidance to treat him...
*
Jiang Yubai has endured the pain spreading from the depths of his soul countless times. But only this time do a pair of soft hands steadily dispel the sharp agony.
He falls asleep in the gentlest embrace of his life, only to wake in the bone-chilling snow.
His fingers curl around the memory of that brief warmth. He savors what little remains of it until it disappears completely.
A moment later, he raises his eyes and fixes them on the direction she left in the storm.
Find her... His breath trembles and surges. Follow her, protect her, and never leave her again.
But a treasure cannot be kept hidden away for one person alone.
Even without returning to the divine altar, more and more prodigies of the cultivation world willingly set aside their pride and bow at her feet, offering her everything they have with reverence.
All for a moment of her favor.
[Please note: Some male leads have questionable values. This is just a wish-fulfillment story. Read with care if that bothers you.]
1. Xianxia sentinels and guides, all the men are sentinels and have one-sided feelings; all male leads are sexually pure.
2. Romance-focused, with no single male lead. There are all kinds of men, including taciturn types, tsunderes, straightforward puppy dogs, and pampered sweethearts. The male leads are all emotionally dependent on the heroine, and some will have solo arcs early on.
3. The goddess is the heroine herself. The romance won't put the heroine through angst, and she takes the lead.
4. There is a character-growth arc. This is not a face-slapping power fantasy.

● Please add my upcoming book, After Saving the Seven Fallen Demon Lords, to your reading list so I can get it started!
[Gentle, timid ray of sunshine x a dignified, radiant man in public and a dark, brooding ghost in private]
When heaven and earth were first formed, seven creator gods took upon themselves the task of upholding the laws of the universe. They used their own bodies as vessels to trap seven sins that had endured since time immemorial, but became fallen gods in the process.
In recent years, the gods have shown signs of succumbing to demonic corruption. With no other choice, the divine realm has brought out the God-Slaying Pill, intending to eliminate the fallen gods and prevent future trouble.
The seven fallen gods are connected to heaven and earth, and the spiritual power of cultivators and immortals is too obvious for them to approach. So the divine realm sends out Fang Li, the lowest-ranked immortal in the entire realm, to take on the task of slaying the gods.
Fang Li (pointing at herself): "Me?"
Fang Li was born as an immortal fruit. Even after taking human form, she is still the least conspicuous little fairy, the sort who stands at the very edge of the Peach Banquet to serve.
But she has no love for cultivation. She enjoys reading popular stories from the mortal world and wants to live an ordinary mortal's life. So she makes a deal with the Divine Emperor: once this matter is settled, she can descend to the mortal world.
She sneaks into the formation in a state of terror, only to discover that the gods are all good at heart and merely under the control of evil sins they cannot resist.
After spending time with them, Fang Li unexpectedly manages to dispel their demonic energy. The fallen gods wash away their corruption and return to the divine altar, becoming radiant creator gods once more, worshipped by all the gods.
Fang Li has done a great deed of immeasurable merit. Delighted, she returns the God-Slaying Pill, packs her little bundle, and heads for the Immortal Descent Platform. But before she can enjoy even two days of happiness, a familiar man knocks on the wooden door of her little courtyard in the mortal world.
He is tall, and his voice is gentle yet strangely ominous. "A-Li, didn't we agree in the formation that you'd stay with me for the rest of your life?"
Fang Li backs away in terror, only to bump into another warm, solid chest.
The man draws her into his arms. His voice, like a ghost's, whispers by her ear, "...Wherever you leave me, I'll find you, A-Li."
She breaks free and runs desperately around the courtyard, but seven gods in magnificent robes block the entrance without a shred of reason.
Seeing their dignified, composed faces take on an excessively infatuated look, Fang Li is on the verge of tears.
What is going on? Didn't she clear away the demonic energy that made them fall?
[PS: There is no single male lead. While fallen gods, the male leads represent the seven deadly sins: pride, envy, wrath, sloth, greed, gluttony, and lust.]
Theme: Live positively and stay hopeful
After reading the daily updates happily, you can sleep peacefully. Thank you to the author.
😭 😭 😭 The term "time" is so cruel, but it makes me laugh. Every one of these people thinks that the girl has no memory. A widower feels that he can no longer recognize himself with gray hair, and a rabbit thinks that the goddess did it on purpose. Hahahahaha
The main palace is coming, the main palace is coming, the main palace is coming!!! 🧋🧋🧋 Master, please come on stage! It's time for me to eat with someone else!
Teacher, I'm hungry, I need some food 🙏 🙏 🙏
Still can't release the second half [Joker] Next chapter
Hey, hey, why do you call me madam? They couldn't have really been married back then, right? [Glasses] [Glasses] [Glasses]
I still can't get the charm of a man who talks like that. I roll my eyes.
It would be great if the heroine could realize this by herself
It's tied. It looks great!
Will you eat your junior brother? I want my junior brother 🥺 🥺 🥺
