After earning the title of strongest in the cultivation world, Ye Zhu retires in triumph, finds a small world where she can live incognito, and settles into a leisurely retirement.
She thinks she is sure to enjoy a peaceful, worry-free life in this golden age.
But...
The celebrated number-one sword cultivator stands before her, face stiff as he does his best to put on a gentle smile.
"I have feelings for you."
The feared Demon Lord stands before her, scowling as he promises, "Come back to the Demon Palace with me. You'll have the highest status as the Demon Queen, along with endless treasures and magical artifacts."
The flirtatious Lord of Demons smiles brightly, though a cold glint shines in his eyes. "I'll guarantee you a lifetime of peace and safety. All you have to do is give me your heart."
Ye Zhu: "..."
Are you people insane?
What Ye Zhu doesn't know is that the day before the three of them arrived in the town, they had all been bound to something called a System at almost the same time.
The System uses their weaknesses to force them to win over an ordinary young woman with no spiritual roots who lives in a remote border town...
Whether the number-one sword cultivator, the Demon Lord, or the Lord of Demons, they are all recognized as the world's strongest. Proud and arrogant, they have never once considered a powerless nobody without spiritual roots worth their attention.
So even though they're forced to win her over, they think all they have to do is beckon her over and offer her benefits she could never obtain in her lifetime, and she'll gratefully give herself to them.
But no matter what tricks they try, this so-called ordinary young woman just keeps a cool expression and never pays them any mind.
So they instinctively resort to even more tactics, gradually abandoning their so-called pride and dignity without even realizing it.
By the time they come to their senses, Ye Zhu is still indifferent, but they have already put the young woman in their hearts and become hopelessly entangled.
[Mini Scene]
At the beginning of their pursuit, all three look down on Ye Zhu and pay her no attention. Later, they run into each other and learn that the others are also players trying to win her over. The sword cultivator suppresses the dark glint in his eyes. "A Zhu's affection score is highest with me. Naturally, she likes me most."
The Demon Lord's eyes fill with murderous rage. "A Zhu said I'm the most handsome, like a painting when I stand still, a pleasure to look at."
The Lord of Demons opens his folding fan. "A Zhu has already met the elders of the Demon Realm. She's been recognized as the Demon Queen."
All three look at Ye Zhu, each with a different expression.
Ye Zhu: "..."
#Has Ye Zhu managed to enjoy her retirement today?
#Another day of being pestered

Upcoming novel: How Does a Game Boss Conquer the Entire Interstellar Realm? [Full-Dive]. Please add it to your reading list~
Wu Li is a boss, specifically a game boss.
The first time she realizes she's a boss, a group of people are shouting and attacking her, but her health bar doesn't budge.
They yell, "This boss is way overpowered!"
"Even the number-one player on the server can't hurt her."
With one casual wave of her hand, she knocks them all into a heap of vanishing data.
That's when Wu Li understands: not only is she a boss, she's incredibly powerful.
And someone as powerful as her should obviously rule this world called a game.
Universe is a full-dive game that has taken the interstellar world by storm. Developed by the authorities, it's the only game widely recognized as capable of training one's mental strength, and for decades after its release, it has remained stable and popular.
But recently, a huge bug has appeared in the game. The boss in the latest update's instance can't be harmed by anyone, and if you make her angry, she'll chase you out of the instance and beat you up.
Over time, people also start spotting a petite, human-shaped boss wandering around the game.
The boss trends on the interstellar hot search rankings for a month before the authorities finally give a simple reply.
"The authorities can't do anything about it either."
Later, people discover that if the boss beats them up and they don't return to the respawn point, their mental strength steadily increases. The entire player base goes wild.
"Getting my daily beating from Sister Li~"
"Sister Li didn't beat me up today. I'm crying, QAQ."
"What is wrong with you people?! Where's your dignity? Where's your fighting spirit?! (Sister Li's dog tag fell off. Pick it up and put it back on.)"
After conquering the world, Wu Li looks at the players lined up to be beaten by her and falls into deep thought...
[Reading Guide]
1. The heroine isn't a mature, regal beauty. Her human form is a very cute girl. The appeal is the contrast of a violent little girl.
2. This is a lighthearted story about a heroine who loves showing off. It's not serious fiction. The heroine is the strongest, so feel free to switch your brain off while reading~
Theme: No matter how outstanding the other person is, you are the most important.
Hey, you can only choose, you can't have them all.
At first glance, I saw the cave as a bridal chamber and was shocked. But when I took a closer look, I saw that it was like this (disappointment).
The system must be from Ye Zhu's world. He is the kind of guy who is not good at cultivation but is good at weird arts.
It suddenly occurred to me that in fact, from Ye Zhu's perspective, this book could be called "One day, four of my travel companions on my retirement trip suddenly wanted to fall in love with me at dusk." . .
I started practicing sword cultivation at first
I said how could it be so exciting?
Ah Zhu also has a huge group of relatives and friends, right?
Mu Mingyuan has it. . . . (Pupil earthquake) Didn't Mu Mingyuan leave?
Hey hey hey, updated updated updated (? )
Bamboo leaves travel around the world! I feel like it would look good if it was written in the form of daily records.
