Blurb:
In her previous life, everyone loved the older of the twin brothers, the peerless leader of the righteous path.
Only the little flower demon, Yu Su, loved the younger brother.
The younger brother was a good-for-nothing with a mixed-up spiritual root. Yet even covered in dirt and blood, he smiled gently.
He was jealous of his older brother, trying to imitate his brother's bright and honorable nature.
Yu Su pitied him and helped him rebuild his foundation. At last, he promised to spend his life with her.
But on their wedding day, he pushed her into a sea of flames.
The demons prostrated themselves at his feet. "Congratulations, my king, on stepping onto the Path of Ruthlessness!"
The little flower demon wept as she burned to ashes.
She could no longer see the young demon king's face turn suddenly pale after her death.
Reborn, Yu Su sneered.
The Path of Ruthlessness?
Then she'll tear it apart herself and make sure his soul is utterly destroyed.
She found the injured young man who had lost his memory and used a flower demon's hypnotic art to force him to fall in love with her. She would make him lose himself in her, begging and pleading at her feet.
In the end, she dug the golden core out of his abdomen and, brimming with delight, lied to him: "Don't cry. It makes you look less like him."
"You're nothing but your brother's substitute."
She struck his most painful nerve, destroying his heart as well as his body.
The young man's Dao heart shattered, and his life breath faded.
But Yu Su never realized that this time, she'd picked up the wrong brother!
Days later, the brother was rescued and summoned back to the sect, brought back to life, and restored to his memories. When he remembered that he was the older brother, he was left speechless: ???
Later, demon hunters surrounded Yu Su with a vast net.
The leader of the righteous path walked toward her, surrounded by a crowd, his gaze as cold as moonlight.
Yu Su sneered. "Why are you arresting me? I helped you kill your demon king of a younger brother. Shouldn't you thank me?"
The young man's expression cracked.
That night, in the immaculate Buddha hall, the golden lock on Yu Su's wrist rang softly.
As she watched in disbelief, the older brother tremblingly pinned her beneath the Guanyin statue. He lowered his head to kiss her, his face anguished and wild.
"Didn't you say you liked me?"
The younger brother, covered in blood after breaking his bones and digging into his flesh just to crawl out of hell and find Yu Su, stumbled into the temple, arriving just in time to see the scene.
His eyes turned scarlet in an instant, his long lashes trembling.
He nearly wept away a lifetime's worth of tears.
Only after being reborn did he learn the truth.
He was nothing but his brother's substitute.
One-on-one romance, happy ending, set in an alternate Tang dynasty. Please don't nitpick the history!

Ruan Mian is a timid, socially anxious girl who gets assigned the role of a vicious supporting female character. Every day, she has to target the heroine, Chu Yutang.
The days of putting on a show of bravado are worse than death. Luckily, she has a System to confide in.
The voice inside her jade slip is unexpectedly pleasant, a magnetic, slightly husky boy's voice. The first time he talks to Ruan Mian, he sounds adorably hesitant. "You said you really want to... get close to Chu Yutang?"
Ruan Mian: "Yeah! She's so gentle, beautiful, and elegant. Even though I'm such a nasty person, she's still kind to everyone..."
The jade slip: "Have you ever considered that she's faking it?"
Ruan Mian: "How could that be? Everyone knows she's a good person!"
On the other end of the jade slip, Chu Yutang gives a soft laugh. "Hmph. Idiot."
Ruan Mian: Why is this System suddenly insulting people? Waaaah.
You picked a fight with me, and now you've got Cotton to deal with!
The quest to insult the heroine is triggered.
Ruan Mian panics. "System, what do I do? If her fans start insulting me back, I... I won't be able to get a word out!"
The jade slip: "Stop fussing and just do it. Anyone who dares insult you, Chu Yutang won't let them get away with it."
Ruan Mian: ?
Can the heroine really be that saintly?
The quest to beat up the heroine is triggered.
Ruan Mian is terrified. "There's no way I can beat her! No matter how I look at it, I'm going to lose! I don't want to die, waaaah..."
The jade slip: "Don't cry! ...Fine, he'll let you hit him once, just this once, and won't fight back. That should be enough to complete the quest, right?"
Ruan Mian: ?
She's practically moved to tears by the heroine's kindness!
The quest to give the heroine a love potion...
The jade slip: "If it's you..."
The boy sighs.
"He won't blame you."
The quests go smoothly, and Ruan Mian is delighted, until one day a mechanical voice sounds in her mind. "Sorry, Host, I'm late! Have the quests been going well?"
Ruan Mian: ...?
She's struck as if by lightning.
This is the real System... so who was inside the jade slip?!
Luckily, she's reached the final step of the quest. All she has to do is let the impartial sect leader run his sword through the heart of the wicked Ruan Mian, and she'll be able to log off.
But as a vast wave of sword light bears down on her, Chu Yutang suddenly steps in front of Ruan Mian.
Only then does Ruan Mian realize that her junior sister, who always looks as delicate as a willow in the breeze, is actually a head taller than her, the schoolyard bully.
Gravely injured, Chu Yutang still clings to Ruan Mian like a madman, pressing her hand against his blood-soaked chest.
The familiar boy's voice comes low from Chu Yutang's lips.
"Ruan Mian, you owe me this. You're not allowed to leave."
"Not for the rest of your life."
Ruan Mian: !!!
The System shrieks: "Host, when did you win over the antagonist?! Aaaah!"
Ruan Mian breaks down.
Socially anxious girl x tsundere, a slightly silly, sweet little treat. If it's not sweet, it's free! Come on, customer, give it a try! (Begging through tears)
Please add my second upcoming story to your favorites too! My Nemesis Turned Out to Be My Husband After Ascension
My nemesis and I fought for eight hundred years. He killed me with his own hands five times, and I killed him with mine six times. After tangling with him through ten lifetimes, I finally plunged my sword into his heart and shattered his soul.
Haha, that's the end of you. No reincarnation this time!
But to my surprise, right at that moment, we both ascended.
When I opened my eyes, I discovered that my nemesis and I were immortals who had descended to the mortal realm to undergo tribulations.
And my nemesis was my actual husband.
Me: ?
Because of my sword, my nemesis seems to have lost his memories of his time in the mortal realm. He only remembers us as a loving couple in the Celestial Realm, and when he looks at me, there's love but no hatred.
In contrast, I have lost my memories of the Celestial Realm: ...
Tch. Disgusting!
That sword also shattered my nemesis's soul into eight pieces, which fell into the mortal realm. Their powerful hatred gave rise to eight extremely evil demon domains.
The Heavenly Emperor is heartbroken and orders the two of us to find the fragments.
I cheerfully agree, overjoyed inside. Now I can take the chance to destroy the fragments and wipe out my nemesis.
Once he's dead, no one will be able to compete with me for the next Heavenly Emperor's seat.
My nemesis has no idea of my sinister intentions. Every day, he just comes over asking for a kiss.
So he won't get suspicious, and so I can kill him by surprise while he's happily dreaming, I force myself to swallow my disgust and grant him one or two.
The first time I kiss him, my nemesis freezes for a moment, but his lapse quickly vanishes behind a smile so perfect it feels unreal.
It isn't until I fail for the third time to destroy one of my nemesis's soul fragments, and my evil plans keep inexplicably getting thwarted, that an old friend happens to gossip with me.
"Hey, didn't you two get married by agreement?"
"That day, he wouldn't even lift your red veil before descending to the mortal realm to undergo his tribulation."
"It's amazing how the fake couple of old has become so lovey-dovey!"
Me: ...!?!
*
After ascending, Xie Ji pretends he's lost his memories of the mortal realm.
He puts on a gentle, affectionate mask, making Fan Li, who's lost her memories of the Celestial Realm, believe they used to be a loving couple.
That way, he can let her lower her guard and find a chance to kill her.
When he comes over asking Fan Li for a kiss, it's only because he finds it amusing and wants to make her so disgusted she can't eat.
But he never expected that one day, the proud goddess would gaze at him quietly for a moment.
Then she really would lower her eyes and gently kiss the corner of his lips.
That day, Xie Ji was the one who couldn't eat, sleep, or calm down.
[Two extreme egoists in a life-and-death struggle, really trying to kill each other]
[Nothing but schemes, with a single spark of sincerity]
[Nemeses are nemeses. They can't become wives!]
[But they fall in love after getting married first, hehe]

Why is the heroine so miserable? 😭
Who knows, when I saw him being called a bitch, I felt like I was having fun, and I almost died laughing.
I feel like there is always a strong sense of fragmentation in the plot... For example, in the previous life, Susu heard Li You tell Chu Lian that he loved Chu Lian more, and Yu Su was just a chess piece. Then why did she still love Li You so much, marry him, and then be burned to death and reborn with such hatred? And didn't Song Qing also say that he loved Chu Lian more and then listened to Chu Lian's instigation to directly depose Yu Su and send her to be Li You's slave? Then this chapter also said that he valued Yu Su particularly and wanted her to be his successor. Inexplicably, he completely deposed a capable second-in-command who spent so much effort and even said that he wanted to marry... It's too strange and illogical, right? At present, it seems very fragmented. I want to incorporate many relationships and feelings, but they are all inconsistent.
I feel like my elder brother is indeed better than my younger brother.
So in the previous life, was Song Qing so angry that he couldn't get a baby girl?
It's a pity that Bai Ya's whole family has been slaughtered long ago, otherwise I really want the heroine to slaughter Bai Ya's whole family again Bai Ya herself couldn't see demons clearly and her whole family was killed. She just angered all the demons. If the people who slaughtered her whole family that day were humans, would she kill everyone in the world?
??? These people are determined to die
I skipped the brother plot. I originally wanted to watch Li You and Li Jiao fight directly. Unexpectedly, the young Poppy and Li Yu butted heads. Then there was a twist. Mu Yun did not betray and Yuebai was the "bad guy", but Poppy saw through her soul that both of them were him. Good, good, good.
I've finished reading the second big book! As always, it suits my liking. The female protagonist is smart and strong, and has her own growth line. No matter what the male protagonist thinks in his heart at the beginning, he will eventually become a love brain who goes crazy for the female protagonist, haha. At first, when Su Su humiliated Li Jiao, I felt that Li Jiao was a little pitiful. But after seeing the truth in the end, I realized that Da Da was so fair and rigorous. Hahaha [Three Flower Cat Head] Li Jiao appears to be a saint, but in front of Su Su, he is actually a jerk 🐶. I really like this kind of madness that even if you humiliate me and want to kill me, I will still love you and protect you! Li You is not inferior to his brother. Even when he thought Su Su had betrayed him later, he still couldn't help loving her, feeling sorry for her, hating that he had caused her to be hurt, and liking a man who looked for reasons from himself! I feel that a large novel is very suitable for a female protagonist. The female protagonist is a self-respecting and rational person who will not waver in the path she wants to take. No matter how strong-willed the male protagonist is before he falls in love with the female protagonist, his behavior does not really hurt the female protagonist. Instead, he protects her and takes care of her. Emotionally, the female protagonist takes more initiative. The male protagonist's sense of humiliation is very touching. But why is there no extra chapter in this article? Woohoo, the previous few people have suffered so much, shouldn't they come back sweetly in the extra chapter! Moreover, these two people are in the same body but their souls are not fused. How suitable for a story about male rivals and me being jealous of myself! Are you seriously considering adding a side story? 🥺 It feels unsatisfactory without a side story! The atmosphere of this article is a bit depressing. The next article should be a lighthearted and sweet article. I have already saved it and look forward to publishing a new article soon! [Spread flowers]
It's mutual redemption. I really want to cry.
