Falling for a Hater Online in the Cultivation World

Medical cultivator Qin Nian added a pitiful little thing on the Spirit-Link Jade.

The little thing was talkative, adorably clueless, and clingy. They didn't even realize when they were being bullied, and often ended up covered in injuries.

Out of pity, Qin Nian sent them lots of healing pills.

After all, a good medical cultivator could draw boundless medicinal power even from a failed pill.

Finally, after being pestered by the pitiful little thing for days in an online relationship, Qin Nian decided to meet them in person.

But instead of the pitiful little thing, he met Zhao Ren, the most universally disliked mad dog in the Qianyuan Realm.

Zhao Ren was a brilliant sword cultivator, but instead of cultivating a cool, aloof persona, he bit anyone he met, making himself the sort of person no one dared offend.

They said that if you looked at him too long, he'd chase you with his sword for three days and three nights.

None of that mattered. What mattered was that at the Qianyuan Realm's medical cultivator conference, Zhao Ren had once disparaged Qin Nian, the champion, as worthless, declaring that he'd never seek Qin Nian's help with an injury in his entire life.

Qin Nian smiled.

Black fans, prepare to die!

Zhao Ren couldn't stand seeing the cultivators of the Qianyuan Realm praise Qin Nian.

They praised Qin Nian as gentle as water and beautiful as a flower, the best medical cultivator? Hah, what hypocrites!

He wasn't even half as genuine as [Mu Han Xue Ji].

They praised Qin Nian, who sold expensive pills, for being compassionate? Hah, what fools!

He wasn't even half as benevolent as [Mu Han Xue Ji].

Poor [Mu Han Xue Ji], devoted to the medical arts, studying hard every day and all alone, yet overshadowed by Qin Nian, a fame-seeking fraud.

[Mu Han Xue Ji] was so poor, too. Worried that he'd get hurt and have no pills to take, they sent him pills they'd worked so hard to refine every few days.

Zhao Ren was sure that [Mu Han Xue Ji] had fallen deeply in love with him.

As a responsible sword cultivator, you had to take the initiative at a crucial moment.

After a long pursuit, Zhao Ren finally began an online relationship with the shy, reserved medical cultivator.

He even gave the medical cultivator his family's heirloom jade bangle.

But when they met in person, Zhao Ren didn't find his poor and lonely online sweetheart. Instead, he found Qin Nian, the ruthless hypocrite.

Qin Nian smiled gently, put a hand on Zhao Ren's shoulder, then let his sleeve fall to reveal the jade bangle on his wrist. Tilting his head, he asked, "Here to meet your online sweetheart?"

The fearless sword cultivator felt his scalp go numb. He could barely hold his life-bound sword. His Dao heart wavered, and he spat out a mouthful of black blood before fainting.

I'm done for!
