The Laid-Back Junior Sister Has the Highest Combat Power

[I did my best with the blurb. You'll have to read the story for yourself. Trust me, the heroine is amazing, the second male lead is compelling, and the male lead is super devoted.]

Of the four senior and junior disciples in our sect, I was least familiar with Third Senior Brother.

He was like a tireless workhorse, worrying about everything and always rushing to be first.

As for me, I was born lucky.

I ate well, slept well, and cultivated the Heartless Dao, where all I had to do was kill others to prove my Dao.

Maybe that got under Third Senior Brother's skin, because he started keeping me under his watch every moment of the day.

But I had my own pace.

Third Senior Brother snapped, "How are you supposed to beat the Heartless Sword Venerable like this?!"

I didn't get it. I cultivated the Heartless Dao, but what did that have to do with the Heartless Sword Venerable?

My poor Third Senior Brother...

I told you, the end of the rat race is madness.

//

Wen Xiuyan, a sword-path prodigy, was betrayed and killed.

The only warm memories he had in his entire life came from a small sect where he had briefly found shelter.

There, though he was quiet and reserved, his eldest senior sister cared for him, his second senior brother looked after him and stood up for him, and his youngest junior sister would yawn and call him Third Senior Brother.

But then

His eldest senior sister was seduced by demons and willingly fell into darkness.

His second senior brother broke his sword, sealed its edge, and guarded the sword grave for tens of thousands of years.

His youngest junior sister neglected her training, challenged the Heartless Sword Venerable to a duel, then vanished without a trace.

When Wen Xiuyan opened his eyes,

red clouds stretched across the sky, and a young girl lay asleep among the shadows of the trees, utterly unaware of the hour.

He clenched his fist:

You can talk tough, but you can't win a fight, and you still have the nerve to sleep?

Fine. The rescue plan starts with you!

A fake-lazy, secretly hardworking Heartless Dao big shot of a junior sister, who acts all aloof × a lone, courageous third senior brother with a tiny bit of scheming that barely counts

.The romance is all in the story. I'm really bad at writing blurbs.

.The second male lead is a die-hard believer in the inevitability of fate, but also a fighter against it.

.There are countless original details. I'll explain my cultivation system in the notes before the story begins.
