A carefree, grudge-holding demon lord x an upright and handsome, green-tea leader of the righteous path
Wen Cangsheng (beauty-loving senior sister) x Li Su'an (green-tea junior brother)
Blurb:
The great demon Wen Cangsheng had been dead for over two hundred years. One day, she opened her eyes and found herself reborn!
Good news: She's not a nobody, and she has cultivation!
Bad news: She's a man, and his cultivation is extremely weak!
Wen Cangsheng had to wonder if she should say what was on her mind. She had been an unparalleled demon lord before she died, so how had she ended up as a good-for-nothing with a face that was hard to look at?!
But when it came to strength, beauty could wait.
Wen Cangsheng, a "junior disciple" specializing in the Heartless Dao, decided to return to her old ways, diligently making herself useful to the sect's Heartless Dao master and serving as a tireless lackey.
At long last, hard work paid off for the little lackey!
Her master sent Wen Cangsheng to take part in the righteous path's Mount Tui sword cultivator competition. Each place she climbed in the rankings came with a hundred Soul-Painting Stones!
Wen Cangsheng cheerfully headed down the mountain and eagerly joined the competition. But on the way, she ran into ghost slaves setting up a formation. She lost her sword and nearly lost her life in the formation.
"Ptooey, ptooey!"
Wen Cangsheng crawled out of the dirt, wiped the blood from her forehead, and pulled her junior brother out too. Pointing at the person in the center of the formation, she asked with a dark expression, "What are our chances of killing him together?"
"...Ten out of ten."
Wen Cangsheng stared at her timid junior brother in disbelief. "Well, I never. I didn't realize you were actually the strong type."
Before Wen Cangsheng could finish, her junior brother turned a grim face toward the leader of the righteous path, his eyes full of despair. "Ten out of ten chances of getting killed instead."
Wen Cangsheng: ...
A whole sect full of good-for-nothings!
"Do you two have any last words?"
The cold, deep voice behind them sounded so familiar that Wen Cangsheng jolted. She turned stiffly and saw an exceptionally handsome, icy face.
Her last stubborn impulse as a beauty lover made her ignore her junior brother's desperate look and exclaim, "Sir, you're as beautiful as a celestial!"
Junior brother: Huh? No, senior brother, you...?
A gust of sword wind flashed past. Wen Cangsheng died.
Damn it!
Only when the man's move slit her throat did Wen Cangsheng remember that this bastard wasn't some celestial. He was the little devil junior brother she'd had before she fell into demonic cultivation!
She'd let her guard down and failed to kill the bastard.
But no one expected Wen Cangsheng to be reborn yet again!
This time, she was the youngest junior sister of the Mount Tui sect, and her junior brother was her senior brother.
Wen Cangsheng immediately sharpened her knife in the middle of the night and laughed ominously.
Junior brother, junior brother, now you won't be able to get away.
[My own take on the cultivation system. True enemies-to-lovers: these two little lovebirds have both tried to kill each other with swords.]
A few warnings:
1. The female lead is reborn at least twice, for a reason. She was a man the first time, but she doesn't mind. She only cares about strength and beautiful people, and has a flexible sense of morality.
2. The male lead is a cold-faced, green-tea beauty who frames others. Please don't read if that bothers you.
