Most people who transmigrate into a book arrive before the plot begins, while there's still time to change everything.
But for some unknown reason, Gu Zhaozhao transmigrated into the heroine of a master-disciple romance full of anguish, and the story was already halfway over. Everyone in the world knew the original heroine had fallen in love with her master against all propriety, and it was already too late to change anything.
At that moment, she was hanging in midair from chains, beaten half to death.
Gu Zhaozhao had always been delicate. She had never suffered such torment before.
She wept so piteously, like a rain-soaked pear blossom, so helpless and forlorn.
She turned the original heroine, who had coveted her master and acted in defiance of all morals, into a weak, kind victim trapped in a desperate situation.
And Chi Ying, the male lead, who in the original story was cool, self-possessed, desireless, and unfeeling, became a sleazy scumbag who coveted his disciple, and, when he couldn't force her, plotted to make her offer herself willingly.
That wasn't all.
To escape the original plot, where the heroine was tormented in body and soul by the hero before he ran her through with his sword, Gu Zhaozhao set the schoolhouse on fire, scared the teacher to tears, and beat up all the supporting female characters who admired the hero.
She even openly pursued other men.
All so the hero would kick her out of the sect as soon as possible, letting her go down the mountain early and enjoy a peaceful retirement.
But why was the hero looking at her more and more strangely?
As if she were his wife, cheating on him.
One morning, Gu Zhaozhao woke to find the room filled with red candles and herself dressed in a wedding gown.
The hero was holding her tightly as he carried her through a sea of corpses and up to the altar, where they sealed their bond with blood, pledging to be together for all eternity.
Gu Zhaozhao, unable to move a single muscle: ...
She clearly remembered that at this point in the original story, the heroine had fallen into darkness after her love went unreturned.
So why did it feel like the hero was the one about to fall into darkness?
The hero, on the verge of falling into darkness, bent to kiss her forehead. He looked impassively at the hellscape below the altar, the corner of his thin lips curling up.
"Zhaozhao and I love each other. We decided long ago to be joined in marriage today."
"May everyone in the Three Realms bear witness. From this day forth, Gu Zhaozhao will be my wife for all eternity. We are one, husband and wife, forever and never to part."
As lightning flashed, she clearly saw the blood-red mark of a fallen immortal between the hero's brows.
The hero, who should have ascended to immortality, had fallen into darkness!!!
Gu Zhaozhao, who'd apparently missed out on a fortune just by sleeping through it: !!!!
