If I Were the Green Emperor

Evil spirits run rampant across the mortal world, and cultivators from the immortal and demonic paths descend into the world to overcome calamities.

According to rumor, the immortal sect's shining young prodigy and the notorious demonic enchantress both died in the starry sea beyond this world, on their way to the mortal realm.

Shen Meijun thinks she must be the former, but clearly she's the latter... an enchantress.

From an obscure nobody to a rising prodigy of the demonic path, it took her two hundred years.

Later, because of a sword, her reputation suddenly soared.

"What a blind divine weapon, choosing an enchantress as its master!"

"If the Azure Emperor Sword were in my hands, the demonic sect wouldn't be allowed to flourish!"

Shen Meijun sighed. "My fame precedes me."

Her friend laughed and scolded her. "You're infamous! Better watch out, or someone will throw a sack over your head as soon as you step outside."

Shen Meijun cupped her face in both hands. "That's just the world's prejudice against me."

At least in the eyes of the mortals in the lands beyond this world, she is an immortal who saves the suffering and rescues the endangered.

Li Qingchen first saw an immortal riding the wind and soaring through the air when he met his immortal elder sister.

Before the young man died, he dreamed that the immortal carried him, barely alive, across the Kunlun Immortal Mountains and to the path of ascension.

She told him, "No one is destined to die."

Shen Meijun doesn't believe in fate.

They say the next master of the Azure Emperor Sword will meet the Azure Emperor's fate and die at the hands of ten thousand demons.

The moment she drew that sword, death became her destiny.

Shen Meijun sneered. "That Azure Emperor wasn't strong enough... and I'm not Them."

The snow-capped mountain stood in lonely, proud, and icy solitude, but Li Qingchen thought it was the sun he had pursued all his life.

He wanted to live. No matter whose puppet he became, he would sever the strings at the other end.

"Please, Elder Sister, teach me the sword that can sever fate."

"My master says no one is destined to die."

"But your disciple is destined to die for you."

[Reading Notes]

1. A long, plot-driven story with an ensemble cast. The protagonists explore new maps, fight bosses, and revisit memories along the way.

2. A scheming sword cultivator, a gentle yet cruel sharp-tongued beauty on a high peak x a resilient, stoic, puppy-like chosen one who gets back up after every setback.

The heroine is already a powerhouse when she appears, invincible among her peers at her peak. The male lead has little page time early on, and the author guarantees he's the only lovesick one in this story. Master and disciple; one-on-one; happy ending.

3. Cultivation levels: Qi Refining - Foundation Establishment - Golden Core - Nascent Soul - Out-of-Body - Deification - Body Integration - Tribulation Transcendence - Great Ascension.

4. Not updated daily, with at least one update a week. Usually one to four chapters a week, at irregular intervals. Updates around 23:00; chapters will be posted as soon as they're finished.

Bonus scene below

[Actually, it's part of the old blurb]

The young man asked her, "May I become your disciple?"

The immortal smiled and said, "No, no. I have too many enemies. You wouldn't live long as my disciple."

Later, Shen Meijun told her senior brothers and sisters that she'd planned to take on a well-behaved, diligent disciple, but he'd turned her down.

I told him

"I'll take you as my disciple. I'll teach you everything I know, and from now on, we'll be nothing but master and disciple."

Second Senior Sister, who cultivates the Heartless Dao: Maybe you're not strong enough yet?

First Senior Brother, who cultivates the Passionate Dao: Is it possible that...

Shen Meijun, who cultivates the Sword Dao: Absolutely not. I'm super strong now! Slaying demons and killing immortals is no problem!
