Ke Xiyin is a rebellious, lazy pessimist.
Not only is she a mess herself, but after transmigrating into a book, she drags everyone else into the mess with her.
The System tells her to follow the plot and save the badly wounded villain, Jiu Yaosheng.
Ke Xiyin runs up to him and asks, "Junior Brother, why are you so determined to stay alive? Wouldn't it be better to die?"
The villain is baffled. She stuffs a mouthful of pills into him, then turns and jumps into the river to drown herself.
Jiu Yaosheng forces himself into the river to drag her out, then spends the next three months sick.
The System urges her to care for the villain, who is on the brink of death.
Ke Xiyin puts in five minutes of hard work and brings Jiu Yaosheng a bowl of wine steeped with spiritual fruit.
The villain refuses to drink it, so she downs it herself, then crashes onto his bed with the bowl.
Coughing up blood, Jiu Yaosheng gets up to make her a hangover remedy, then spends another half month in bed.
The System creates an opportunity for her to grow closer to the villain.
Flowers and moonlight, no one else around, the perfect atmosphere.
Ke Xiyin takes the villain's hand and asks with a solemn expression, "Junior Brother, would you be willing to die with me?"
The villain, whom she's already worn down into a health-conscious husband: "...Drink this bowl of sweet soup first, then ask me."

Ke Xiyin was once a peerless prodigy who could split mountains and rivers with a single sword. Now she has fallen into shameless worthlessness.
Everyone pities her and finds her disgusting.
Jiu Yaosheng is no different.
At first, he deliberately gets close to Ke Xiyin and curries favor with her, all so he can use her to get his revenge.
Later, learning how much suffering she has endured, he willingly gives up his old ways to cook for her, asking only that Ke Xiyin keep living.
In the end, he fails to get his revenge and instead becomes nourishment for his enemy's daughter to ascend to immortality. As his heart is carved out, his bones ground to dust, his soul extracted, and his blood replaced, all he can think is that at least he hasn't dragged his senior sister into this.
Just before his consciousness fades, he sees the senior sister everyone despises split open the immortal gate with a single sword strike and crush the ladder to heaven with her bare hands. Amid the masses, she looks up at the radiant Heavenly Dao.
Her compassionate, jade-like face makes her look like a true god.
She gathers up his soul and, standing atop the corpses of his enemies, cries out to the heavens: "Jiu Yaosheng said he wanted revenge and to ascend. Can't you hear him, damn it?"
Jiu Yaosheng: "???"
