Heart-to-Heart Talks with My Villainous Senior Brother Every Night

Every year, when a new batch of cultivators enrolls, they are all taken to meet one person.

They pass through layer upon layer of barriers and enter a dim, abyssal secret realm. Faint candlelight flickers on the walls, and the sound of dripping water falls into the silence.

A man is imprisoned in heavy chains and shackles.

He leans against the wall, eyes closed in lazy repose.

His stunning, radiant face is pale with weakness, and the corner of his mouth curls into an almost imperceptible smile.

Terrified, they keep their distance, then point at him as they work up the nerve to say, "This is what happens when you defy the Heavenly Dao!"

Yu Huayu trails at the very back of the group, sneaking furtive glances around before slipping a talisman note inside.

"..."

Those strange eyes slowly open, committing the girl's face to memory.

-

Later, Yu Huayu, a cannon-fodder supporting female character, reaches the day when the plot calls for her to sacrifice her life for the protagonist.

Rain pours down. Blood covers her, and she grips a spirit blade with its tip pointed at herself.

She is so exhausted that she can barely hear the crowd's frenzied shouts around her.

Suddenly, silence falls between heaven and earth.

Everyone is so shocked by what they see that they cannot move.

The man who had willingly remained imprisoned for years has broken free of his restraints. He descends from the sky and, before everyone's eyes, pulls the girl into his arms.

-

One day, a friend asks what was written on the note when they first met.

Yu Huayu hesitates for a long time, then holds out her hand.

A talisman note lies in her palm.

Her friend excitedly unfolds it, glances at it, and freezes.

The note reads:

"Shampoo and haircut, 30 spirit stones. New customers get 20% off~"

--Coming soon: No Seducing Female Cultivators from the Hehuan Sect--

Yu Qingyue transmigrates into the body of a female cultivator from the Hehuan Sect and is forced into dual cultivation with the hidden master of the Ghost Realm.

On a dark, windy night, a man stands beneath a tree with his sword in his arms. He raises his thin eyelids, his eyes pitch-black and murderous, startling the carrion crows from the branches.

Yu Qingyue takes back her little scheme: I'm out of here.

For some reason, he stares straight at her for a long time.

He walks toward her. Yu Qingyue jumps in fright and is about to run for her life, but she is immobilized.

As expected, major villains are all unpredictable. Little Yu shuts her eyes in despair, waiting to die.

A soft rustling sounds beside her, as if something has fallen to the ground. She secretly opens one eye, only to see Ning Siqing elegantly removing his clothes. His handsome, cool face and his wanton behavior are completely at odds.

Little Yu is stunned. "W-what are you doing?!"

Ning Siqing looks confused. "Hm? You're not going to?"

His expression is languid. His collar hangs open, and his loose outer robe slips halfway off his shoulder, revealing a smooth expanse of skin in the moonlight.

Yu Qingyue: "...D-do what?" Do something stupid?

Ning Siqing says amiably, "Should I be gentle? Or you can be gentle, if you like."

That's blatant teasing!

Yu Qingyue is often teased for being from the Hehuan Sect, so she rarely gets the chance to act self-righteous. She immediately takes advantage of it.

Yu Qingyue: "Please behave yourself! I'm a female cultivator from the Hehuan Sect with principles!"

Ning Siqing doesn't care.

He hooks a finger around the end of Yu Qingyue's hair. Her black strands wind suggestively around his pale fingertips, slow and unhurried. By contrast, the "Yu Qingyue Death Countdown" above her head has less than half an incense stick left.

Ning Siqing curls his lips into a smile. "But I bet you won't be gentle in a little while."
