I've dropped the novel. I'll unlock it once the time comes. I'm sorry, and thank you all for keeping me company.
↓Novel blurb below↓
The ancient music cultivator Li Tianfeng was reborn.
With another chance at life, of course she wanted to try something different. So she joined a sword cultivator's sect and began diligently practicing swordsmanship. She thought her talent was extraordinary, and that changing paths shouldn't be a problem. But she had put all her skill points in the wrong place: she could only play the qin, and her sword swung like a piece of cotton.
To teach his hopeless disciple, her master made her get up before dawn to practice her swordsmanship. He'd done everything a top-tier master should, from spending a fortune on iron to channeling his power to protect her...
A few years later.
Her master had trained himself to the brink of ascension.
Li Tianfeng still hadn't gotten the hang of it. If you don't get it, you just don't get it.
"But I'm not actually stupid."
"There are three thousand paths to the Great Dao, and they all lead to the same destination. Music cultivation is my real calling, after all!"
That day, the ancestor of music cultivators finally decided to give herself a cheat.
*
The whole Taixuan Sect found out that their junior sister was actually a genius.
When she entered the Sword Tomb, she closed her eyes and tapped every sword in turn. The sword chimes rang clear, their echoes lingering in the air. Everyone present felt as if they were listening to heavenly music.
Their spiritual fields had been destroyed, and everyone was discussing going to take revenge. But their junior sister crouched by the fields and sang a song. The grass grew back!
When they went exploring in a secret realm, their junior sister seemed to be right at home.
"Oh, this grave mound really is mine." As she spoke, she dug up her own bones.
Fellow disciples: Our junior sister is the reincarnation of a mighty cultivator!
"That's not wrong."
Fellow disciples: Why did you change paths, junior sister?
"Well, I was just playing around."
Fellow disciples: Junior sister...
Li Tianfeng turned around and saw her handsome master standing nearby, staring at her coldly, his eyes red with anger.
"You're the reincarnation of a mighty cultivator?"
"You studied swordsmanship with me just for fun?"
Li Tianfeng: Oh no!!!
Reading guide
1. A laid-back, fun-loving disciple x a cool, nurturing male master.
2. The protagonist has no other romantic storylines, so please don't ask a whole bunch of questions about whether she's pure or not. The author would feel sad and upset.
3. Lots of original worldbuilding! Suggestions and self-service content warnings are welcome. Please refrain from subjective speculation, preemptive warnings, and personal attacks. Let's treat each other with respect!
