Love and hate across lifetimes / Killing My Wife Won't Prove the Dao
Younger disciple x older disciple / love-struck x emotionless sword cultivator / born evil x forged into a saint
Couple: Ling You x Su Hui
Sword Saint Su Hui has perfected the Emotionless Sword Dao and stands just one step away from ascending to immortality. All that remains is to overcome his tribulation of love.
Following his master's prophecy, he brings a newly hatched demon wyrm back to Dishan, takes him in as his junior brother, and names him Ling You.
He teaches his junior brother swordsmanship and various spells, waiting for him to grow up so they can join their fates.
Then he kills his junior brother with a single sword strike.
Ling You is raised by his senior brother and sees him as his entire world. Knowing how devoted his senior brother is to seeking the Dao, he willingly offers up his neck, ready to give his blood to secure his senior brother's path to immortality.
But though his senior brother's sword pierces his heart, it fails to open the gates of ascension.
His senior brother has already killed him to sever all emotion and desire, yet still failed to overcome his tribulation of love. There can be only one reason
His senior brother never loved him. The person his senior brother loves is someone else.
The Sword Saint has been heartless from beginning to end.
The dying demon wyrm can't believe it and goes completely mad.
You can kill me, but how can you not love me?
“Will Senior Brother be able to kill me for good this time?”
