Yan Yuwei had been wandering for years when he was suddenly taken in as a disciple by the greatest sword cultivator under heaven and brought to Qingling Mountain. He even got a brilliant, breathtakingly talented fiancé, Gu Zhaoxue. Everyone else on Qingling Mountain disliked him, thinking him beneath them. Yan Yuwei didn't care, cheerfully throwing himself at people who gave him the cold shoulder.
But one day, his beloved cat fell gravely ill. Yan Yuwei begged everyone on Qingling Mountain for help, but no one was willing to lend a hand. To save his little cat, Yan Yuwei used a secret art to share his lifespan with it.
Blood Pact: Your lifespan is 1. Your spirit pet's lifespan is ♾️. After the Blood Pact, your current lifespan is ♾️.
Yan Yuwei: ???
He suddenly discovered that he'd transmigrated into a book as a sacrificial character. He'd been taken in as a disciple so that, once he formed a golden core, it could be dug out and given to the sect leader's son, Shen Yuehua.
Yan Yuwei: You should've said so sooner. Cultivating immortality is such a pain. I'm done. I'm going home to farm.
His cat: I know a faster way to cultivate. They say the righteous path is to attain enlightenment by killing your wife...
Yan Yuwei: The demonic sect attains enlightenment by killing their husbands?
His cat: No, by having your wife kill the righteous. If someone can kill you seven times, you'll become the Demon Lord.
Yan Yuwei: ...Should we try it?
So when Gu Zhaoxue dug out his golden core, Yan Yuwei turned around and jumped off Qingling Mountain.
Below Qingling Mountain was the Abyss of Annihilation. No one could survive there.
Finding someone to kill him was no easy task. Yan Yuwei didn't want to make an innocent person bear the burden of murder, either, so in the end he decided that Qingling Mountain, where the most people hated him, was his best bet.
Yan Yuwei disguised himself and went up the mountain, but he couldn't shake the feeling that everyone in the sect was acting strangely.
Master: "Your innate spiritual constitution isn't pure enough. You don't have his sincere heart."
Yan Yuwei: Oh, then go ahead and kill me.
His second senior brother carried a little purse around all day, talking to himself: "He gave this to me..."
Yan Yuwei, picking it up and tossing it away: Then go ahead and kill me.
His junior brother: "I'm telling you, don't even think about taking his place!"
Yan Yuwei: Then go ahead and kill me.
As for Gu Zhaoxue... Gu Zhaoxue took one look at him and spat out a mouthful of blood.
He'd already killed Yan Yuwei once, so he couldn't do it again. Yan Yuwei walked away in disgust.
[Innately Spiritual Optimist Bottom x Innately Evil Heavenly Dao Top]
The bottom is an untroubled, universally adored charmer, with everyone harboring one-sided feelings for him. The top is demonic, the opposite of the Heavenly Dao, and can transform into a human.
Everyone gets their dramatic heartbreak, but no one wins him over.
Theme: I want to write a melodramatic novel, aaah!
