[New novel next door, The Sword Born as a Hibiscus, is now live]
Tang Shuyue is the heroine of the renowned xianxia cultivation novel Recognizing the Hazy Moon Through Drunken Eyes, Lin Yanhe's junior sister and the love of his life.
With her good-for-nothing childhood friend character and her low profile in the plot, the book's heroine is far less popular than its male lead.
Many readers prefer original characters or canon supporting heroines like Yichuan, making them the protagonists of fan fiction where they embark on all sorts of marry-first-fall-in-love-later and love-and-hate stories with Lin Yanhe.
They take Tang Shuyue's place, steal her moments in the spotlight, and erase the shared past between Tang and Lin.
In the end, they walk down the aisle with the bold young man who loves Tang Shuyue.
Then one day, the original protagonists of all these derivative works transmigrated into the original novel.
So when Tang Shuyue came out of seclusion, she was astonished to find a cool, taciturn senior sister, a lively and stubborn junior sister, and a powerful, elegant martial uncle (?) had joined her sect.
They all claimed that Lin Yanhe was their future beloved and that they deserved to spend a perfect life together.
"Su Ran suddenly covered her face, sobbing as if her heart would break." Tang Shuyue slowly read aloud from the script. "Lin Yanhe stared, dumbstruck. She looked even more lovely than Tang Shuyue when she smiled, her face like a pear blossom in the rain."
"Do you really think Su Ran looks prettier than me when she cries?" She looked up, puzzled.
Lin Yanhe, who had suddenly found himself surrounded by peach blossoms and was forced to sleep in a tree: "...Shut up."
To Lin Yanhe, Tang Shuyue is an indispensable part of him.
She is his constant companion and support, the one person he trusts and understands like no other.
After he set out alone on a path of no return, she was the only comfort in his dreams.
Because he cares, he won't leave. Because he cares, he can't lose her.
A brazen, arrogant senior brother x a gentle, brave junior sister
[Preview of the related upcoming novel, The Sword Born as a Hibiscus]
1.
Shi Songzhen, wielder of the Chunjun Sword, could split mountains and cleave seas with a swing of her blade. Its three-foot swordlight bloomed like a hibiscus, earning her the title "Hibiscus Sword."
She was noble, extraordinarily skilled, and a master of the sword. Her only flaw was that she died too young.
In the first year after Shi Songzhen died in battle, the Lord of Penglai Island prostrated himself at every step, begging Xie Fuzhou, the Hibiscus Sword's Dao companion, to give the Chunjun Sword to his daughter, Ye Xueyi.
In the seventh year after Shi Songzhen died in battle, a young woman, newly recovered from a serious illness, went with her father to a secret realm on Tianshan to thank her savior. Amid the falling snow, she fell in love with Xie Fuzhou at first sight.
In the thirteenth year after Shi Songzhen died in battle, Ye Xueyi stood before Xie Fuzhou with a sword on her back, her face flushed as she softly asked, "May I stay by your side?"
The great demon Xie Fuzhou propped his head up with one hand, his expression unreadable.
2.
When Shi Songzhen, the Hibiscus Sword, died, the only person she couldn't bear to leave behind was her Dao companion, Xie Fuzhou.
She had lived without shame before Heaven or herself, but as she lay dying, she felt she had wronged Xie Fuzhou. Her thoughts were only of him. Would he be heartbroken when he heard the news? Would he grieve? Would he blame her for being too reckless and leaving him alone to suffer in this world?
Fifteen years after Shi Songzhen died in battle, she awoke. Before she could understand how she had come back from the dead, she heard that Xie Fuzhou of Tianshan was to marry Ye Xueyi, the new Chunjun Sword wielder, and that their wedding would take place soon.
She suddenly remembered a winter night many years ago, when heavy snow fell beneath Tianshan. A person and a fox sat by the fire, as if cut off from the world. Xie Fuzhou, who had just succeeded in taking human form, gathered his courage and asked, "Sister Shi, may I stay by your side?"
Shi Songzhen came to her senses from her memories, then finally gave a silent, rueful laugh.
Theme: Everyone has their own story to shine in. There's no need to steal someone else's future
That's why her world has no ending, it ends on its own and disappears at one point in time.
A senior brother who really deserves a beating
You just want to spend more time with your junior sister, right? [Lop-eared Rabbit Head] [Purple Sugar] Got it
The master's love withered before it could be expressed, and meeting again was already on the grave. It was really cruel, both for the two of them. He missed her who truly wanted to protect him for the rest of his life, and she missed him who truly valued his lover.
If you can carry it clearly, you will eventually become a great weapon, not bad [Rainbow Fart]
If he really does this, it also proves that he is not good. Let's find another one. There is no grass anywhere in the world [dog head] Lin: I advise you to shut up.
I don't know if I'm too old. In the past, fan fiction was really an extended story of the original character itself, or it was the existing CP's sugar-coating. Now, it's just Li Daitao Zong. In fact, if I like to set up a story and use original characters that are not from the original work, then I can create a new one myself and just follow the world view of the original work. I have an official partner or CP, and it would be very unkind for my colleagues to tear someone else down.
It's so annoying, irrelevant people are popping up all over the place
I feel like the author's writing is a bit confusing
Awesome, this demon king also got retribution, hahaha, he deserves it
