As the eldest senior sister of her sect, Su Yuan devoted herself wholeheartedly in her previous life to building Yushan into the foremost immortal sect in the land.
Who could have guessed that one day, heavenly lightning would strike without warning, reducing Yushan to ruins and killing her in the tribulation?
Only then did she learn that, despite her upright character and great renown, she was no more than an insignificant cannon-fodder supporting female character in a book.
The destruction of her sect was merely part of the past of the villain who would later undergo trials in the story.
She hated it with all her heart.
Fortunately, the Heavenly Dao showed her the way:
If she could find the villain in her sect, the one born with demonic bones, and kill him, everything could still be turned around.
Time reversed, and Su Yuan narrowed it down to a few people.
Her third junior brother, the transmigrated Long Aotian, had an enormous ego: suspicious.
Her fifth junior brother, a loner who kept everyone at arm's length, had an unknown past: very suspicious.
Her seventh junior brother, who was obsessed with unorthodox and sinister arts and never learned his lesson: extremely suspicious.
As for her good-for-nothing, lazy little junior brother,
he, uh, didn't seem like a possibility at all.

Su Yuan teamed up with her pitiful little junior brother, Tan Nian, a cannon-fodder character, and mingled among the third junior brother's circle as she searched for evidence of the sect's destruction.
To that end,
she made soup for her third junior brother, only for him to vomit blood and pass out after eating it;
she gave her fifth junior brother swordsmanship lessons, only for his qi to flow backward and send him into demonic possession.
Su Yuan: ∑(°口°?)
Her little junior brother stood beside her, his pale, sickly face shadowed. "Senior Sister, perhaps your injuries haven't healed yet, and you still can't fully control your spiritual power. You should go rest first."
Su Yuan then went out to find a secret technique unique to her sect for her seventh junior brother.
But she fell into an illusion on the way, and she and Tan Nian were trapped there, with no end in sight to their return to the sect...
Su Yuan was going crazy. How could she find evidence if things kept going like this?
While she fretted, her little junior brother Tan Nian seemed completely unconcerned. In the surrounding darkness, he took her hand.
His hand was scorching hot, making her heart tighten.
"Eldest Senior Sister, isn't this much better?" the young man sighed.
He smiled like the bright moon, but his eyes were unfathomably deep. "You've spent too much time on them. I'm honestly jealous..."
"It's been two lifetimes. Have you still not realized that the person you're looking for was always me?"
Su Yuan: ...
Su Yuan: ???

Tan Nian had a secret.
He had once killed his beloved with his own hands, then spent all his soul power to revisit the past.
In this life, he would burn his heart and soul to protect her and all of Yushan.
But first, he had to kill those three men.
