Shen Qingmian once traveled through time and became the cannon fodder senior sister in the heroine novel.
The senior sister was extremely talented and aloof. However, she obeyed her teacher's orders and got engaged to the male protagonist. When the male and female protagonists were being hunted, she blocked many enemies with one against a hundred, and died from exhaustion.
The book reads: "When he learned that Shen Qingmian had passed away, Lin Yuanxing was stunned for a moment and shed two lines of tears. But he thought that from now on he would no longer have to worry about the marriage contract and could justifiably marry Xiao Jinglan, which made him feel a little happy."
In order to save her life after time travel, Shen Qingmian hid from the male protagonist in the book every day. However, it didn't take long for the master to discuss the engagement with her in a pleasant manner.
Shen Qingmian's brain was racing: "Master, I... I already have a sweetheart."
"Oh? Who is it?"
It happened that a group of outer disciples passed by not far away. Shen Qingmian closed his eyes and pointed casually: "He, that's him."
The news of Shen Qingmian's private life-long arrangement with a young man from the outer sect spread quickly throughout the Tianshuang Sect.
Late at night, Shen Qingmian hesitantly sneaked into the residence of the outer disciples, and finally found the young man shivering against the wall in the utility room that was leaking from all directions.
His clothes were ragged, and his exposed skin was covered with mottled scars. He looked even more miserable than the day she rescued him from Tianshuang Gate.
"What's your... Name?"
Shen Qingmian asked hesitantly.
The young man raised his head, fixed his dark eyes on Shen Qingmian's face, and spoke hoarsely.
"Pei Wang."
Such a familiar name, where have you heard it before?
A few days later, Shen Qingmian woke up from his dream and suddenly remembered why the name sounded familiar.
Pei Wang.
The introduction to that novel says that the Demon Lord Pei Fan overthrew the world.
Shen Qingmian stood up in confusion and saw the legendary Demon Lord standing next to her respectfully holding a cup of warm tea.
"Senior sister, drink tea."
There are still mottled scars on the fingers holding the tea.
Shen Qingmian's heart softened and she took the tea from Pei Wan.

Pei Wang's life was miserable.
When he was a boy, his village was massacred by robbers. He received a slap and his meridians were destroyed, making him a cripple unable to practice martial arts.
Later, when he entered the Tianshuang Sect, a loser like him who lived and ate for free was naturally bullied and looked down upon.
If the only light in his life was the woman in white who took him away from the mountain of corpses and sea of fire on the day the village was massacred.
It's a pity that the only difference between him and her is chance.
By some mistake, Pei Huan fell into the devil's cave and suffered a lot. After many years, he finally returned to the world, only to learn of her death.
Kill, kill everyone in the world.
All those who caused her death should be killed by this evil ghost himself, even if the price is his own life.
When he was dying, the only thing Pei Wang couldn't let go of was that he still didn't kill all her enemies on her behalf.
When he opened his eyes again, the woman in white still looked the same as in his memory, picking up the dying man from a pool of blood.
It's just one more gentle comfort than in the previous life.
"Don't be afraid, it's okay."

There were rumors in the martial arts world that Tianshuang Sect's stunningly talented senior sister was engaged to a little-known good-for-nothing. Everyone came to the door, waiting to see the good-for-nothing make a fool of himself.
But she saw a man in black slowly walking out from behind Shen Qingmian, lowering his eyes to fill the cup of tea for her.
Shen Qingmian looked at him with a smile: "Come back quickly, or the tea will get cold."
"Yes, senior sister."
Some people questioned the evil nature of Pei Wan's martial arts. Facing the aggressive martial arts fellows, Shen Qingmian sneered.
"There is no distinction between right and wrong in martial arts. Good and evil are determined by the human heart. Those of you who slander my unmarried husband must first pass me."
It was night, and Shen Qingmian carefully probed Pei Wan's thin wrist.
Pei Wan has long been accustomed to suffering from the retrograde meridians every day, but he is uneasy about the exposure of his magic skills.
But Shen Qingmian frowned slightly and raised her hand to wipe the cold sweat from his temples.
"Does it hurt?"
Intention: Good and evil are within the human heart
