[Completed]
As a task-taker, Sang Hui's goal was simple at first: find the apocalyptic factor, then eliminate it.
In her eighteenth year in the cultivation world, Sang Hui finally received the System's plot details.
In the original book, the demon who was regarded as the male lead's greatest enemy from the start was now just an ordinary boy with no cultivation, bullied by everyone, and blessed only with a handsome face.
He was the boy who had once shared life and death with Sang Hui.
At that moment, he was kneeling on the ground with his eyes lowered, silently enduring the jeers of Sang Hui's family. Yet he clutched the marriage contract between their families in his hands.
Sang Hui fell silent.
Was the villain really following the overpowered hero's rise-to-the-top route these days?
.
Fu Xuzhou was born with a sword bone and was admired by everyone. Even his flaws, like being taciturn and bad at socializing, were praised as signs of his aloof and proud nature.
Then, in a single day, his sword bone was destroyed. He fell from the clouds, and everyone laughed at him.
On the day the Sang family broke off the engagement, someone broke his legs and left him kneeling on the ground in a wretched state. He wanted to end his life, but someone saved him.
Years later, the cultivation world said that Miss Sang had been blind to let the Sword Saint slip through her fingers back then, only to chase after him now.
Only Fu Xuzhou knew that she did not love him. She loved everything in the world, and he was merely one part of it.
He did not want that.
Fu Xuzhou knew he was ambitious.
He wanted to become the exception to the gods.
[Reader's Guide]
1. A sweet-looking but secretly calculating heroine x a seemingly taciturn hero who is actually very pure-hearted
2. A modest ensemble cast, not a power fantasy with a strong heroine. The heroine does have a hidden-strength arc.
3. Plot-focused, romance in a supporting role, slow burn
4. My own take on fantasy, with copious original worldbuilding
Here's a preview of my other upcoming novel:
How Could My Sect Possibly Have Villains?
Li Tan is a disciple of Hundred Gu Mountain. Though her sect's name is a little strange, everyone there is actually kind and friendly.
She works hard, hoping to one day clear Hundred Gu Mountain's name.
Then one day, a System comes looking for her.
It says, "Your sect is full of vile villains who stop at nothing!"
Li Tan turns to look at her eldest senior brother helping an old woman cross the street, and her second senior sister offering free medical consultations.
It says, "Your sect is secretly plotting to destroy the world!"
Li Tan looks over at her third senior brother, who's being chased for slacking off and neglecting his cultivation.
It says, "Especially your master. He's the greatest demon of them all, and he eats people without batting an eye!"
Li Tan looks at her master, who's cooking for her while chattering away, and at her third senior brother, who followed the smell in hopes of sneaking a bite and got beaten for it.
The System smiles in satisfaction. "See? I told you he's a demon!"
Li Tan falls silent.
Li Tan is baffled.
Former Demon Realm Sacred Lord, the cultivation world's greatest demon, Li Tan: ? There is definitely something off about the cultivation world.
Theme: An ordinary, peaceful life is what really matters.
