Bai Yueguang Is the Sword Spirit in the Substitute Story

[Opening October 17 😘 Three chapters on launch day, please add it to your collection] Jiang Li was told by the System that he had transmigrated into a book as the male lead's sword in a melodramatic body-double story. The male lead was adored by everyone, and before meeting the protagonist, he had been the idealized first love in the protagonist's heart. The first Sword Venerable of the cultivation world and the most beautiful person under heaven, he was as lovely as a flower and as fair as snow. Every smile and frown had the young protagonist hopelessly smitten. After his idealized first love vanished into dust, the protagonist was consumed by inner demons, rose above the Four Realms, and became the brutal Demon Emperor feared by all. The only thing he still cherished was the sword that had been at his beloved's side in life. He polished and caressed it day and night. "As a tool-sword spirit, when the protagonist tries to win him over but gets grabbed by the throat, step in at the right moment to save him. Create a chance for them to bond and bring them together." "When the protagonist goes berserk and prepares to slaughter innocents, you must know how to sacrifice yourself and perish alongside his inner demon. This will break his attachment to his idealized first love and lower his corruption level." And so on and so forth... Jiang "couch-potato" Li pretended not to hear. The System panicked. "The will of the book says the protagonist must be won over by the love interest, let go of his idealized first love, and stop treating the love interest as a stand-in. Once you complete the mission, you can return to your original world and live your life. Otherwise, if the mission fails, the world will collapse, and neither of us will survive!" Jiang "opens his eyes" Li: What the hell are you talking about? System: ... * Wen Jiu knew he was living in a book. All he had to do was obediently play the stand-in at first, relying on his resemblance to Jiang Shiyue to eventually win the protagonist over with his kindness and thoughtfulness. Then, when the time came, he could act utterly heartbroken and stage a tearjerker romance that would shake the Four Realms. Wen Jiu waited and waited for that day. But instead of the promised groveling redemption arc, he got news that Yan Chongge was holding up a sword and declaring his ownership to the whole world... How was it possible that he couldn't even compete with a sword?! * He did nothing when the love interest was on the verge of suffocating, and still did nothing when the protagonist was slaughtering everyone in sight. The System was convinced that, sooner or later, his defiance and laziness would either get him destroyed by the Demon Emperor's volatile cruelty or indirectly lead the entire world to ruin. Until one day, the love interest came to demand an explanation. The force with which Yan Chongge gripped Jiang Li's sword made his waist and stomach tingle. With a shiver, he swept the air with a sword intent like falling pear blossoms, so lightly it was as if he were stretching after waking up, yet it left the other man utterly defeated. Meeting Wen Jiu's disbelieving gaze, Yan Chongge arched his brows. "See? My wife is jealous." Jiang Li: ? From then on, the Demon Emperor Yan Chongge would always call a certain sword by its original owner's name. His voice was tender and affectionate, sometimes even using pet names. But if the sword failed to respond, he would start touching it all over. Jiang Li couldn't take it anymore. He manifested in Yan Chongge's arms, hooked an arm around his neck, and smiled fiercely. "To be honest, I've been putting up with you for a long time." At last, the person whose existence had become the root of his obsession was in his arms. Yan Chongge's eyes darkened as he turned the tables and pressed him onto the bed. "Who hasn't?" The man's thumb brushed his lips. His voice was low and seductive, barely restrained. "You haven't been holding back nearly as long as I have." * System: ...Help! The lazy sword spirit I summoned back is the actual idealized first love! What do I do?! He even took out the Main God in one strike after it threatened him into completing the mission! Yan Chongge × Jiang Li / Jiang Shiyue Reading Guide: Both leads are sexually inexperienced.
