Ning Qixue transmigrates into the heroine of a cultivation drama and, fed up with the pathetic plot from the start, jumps off a cliff.
Instead, she lands in the arms of the sleeping villain who is destined to destroy the world, and is forced to cling to him for an hour.
System: You must raise the favorability of Lu Zhiyuan, the demonic villain, to 100, or this world will collapse.
Ning Qixue: So what's his favorability toward me right now?
System: -100.
Ning Qixue: I told you that a cold, aloof villain like Lu Zhiyuan doesn't like physical contact. You still made me cling to him, and now we're all doomed along with this world.
With the laws of the world on the verge of collapse, Ning Qixue, the Primordial Dao Physique and Holy Maiden of the Qingxu Sacred Land, is pushed onto an altar to be sacrificed to the Heavenly Dao.
At the last moment, the System has a change of heart. It says that if she willingly sacrifices herself to save the world, it will use its last strength to send her back to the modern world.
Ning Qixue figures she has nothing to lose, so she puts on the air of a compassionate goddess and willingly gives herself up for the world's survival.
The white-robed holy maiden is forced onto the altar to fill the rift in the laws. The void's chaotic currents stir her long hair, yet her face bears only compassion and relief.
“Who gave you the right to sacrifice her?”
“To save this world? Ridiculous. Then why shouldn't I kill everyone still alive here today?”
A sword is held between her and the crowd that pushed her onto the altar.
The villain's black robes billow, his white hair bright as snow.
He crawled out of a sea of blood, endured countless trials, and returned from the depths of the underworld. He never wanted to see her meet such a fate.
Everyone who sacrificed her deserved to die. On the scales of his heart, she weighed more than the entire world.
Once every million years, this world suffers a great calamity.
During the apocalypse a million years ago, he saved and protected countless people through his own efforts. But for defying the Heavenly Dao, he was left with little time to live.
As the world teetered on the brink of destruction, people pushed him onto the altar, intending to burn his primordial spirit to keep the world running. They said, “He doesn't have long to live anyway,” yet no one asked what he wanted.
Ning Qixue: What happened after that?
Lu Zhiyuan: I blew myself up.
His Dao Physique slept in the netherworld, but he never expected to awaken a million years later because of her closeness. He opened his eyes with a heart full of hatred for the world, only to see her cool, snow-white face.
Later, even he, so ruthless by nature, came to show this mortal world a little mercy because of her.
