An ancient ferocious beast descended upon the world. The immortals and demons set aside their differences and joined forces to seal it away.
At the victory banquet, the Demon Lord was unexpectedly poisoned with a strange toxin.
To calm the demons' fury, a healer from Medicine King Valley came to treat him.
Just as the poison was about to be cured, the medicine boy beside the healer began looking increasingly uneasy.
Suddenly, the boy pulled a dagger from his robes and stabbed the healer.
With tears in her eyes, she said to the healer, "I'm sorry, Master. For the sake of all the people under heaven, I can't let you save the Demon Lord."
The healer clutched her chest, tears streaming down her face, and pointed painfully at the Demon Lord. "Then stab him!"
.
Chan Zhixue was that unfortunate healer.
My name is Chan Zhixue, and I'm the future heir of Medicine King Valley.
After an accident, I was stabbed by the disciple I trusted most and fell into a coma.
But the misfortune turned out to be a blessing, because I discovered the truth about the Heavenly Dao.
It turned out that the world I lived in was a book, and my disciple was its heroine.
In the story, I would remain asleep from this injury, while the heroine inherited Medicine King Valley and was revered by the world as the Immortal Healer.
Kindhearted, innocent, and gentle, she won the affections of the male lead, the Immortal Venerable, and the villain, the Demon Lord.
The two fought over her and started a war between immortals and demons, sacrificing countless mortals and rogue cultivators.
In the end, the heroine was moved by their obsessive love and married them both. The three of them lived happily ever after.
When I read the heroine's words in the ending, "If Master and all those who died could see our wedding, they'd surely be glad that their sacrifices led to such a happy outcome," I suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and woke up in a rage.
[Extra Scene]
The male lead's diary:
[Month X, Day X. My wife felt my pulse today. I was so nervous. Does that count as skinship? Poisoning myself on purpose was worth it.]
[Month X, Day X. I saw my wife talking to someone else today. I'm not happy.
Once I'm cured, I'll repay her life-saving kindness by offering myself to her. My wife is so softhearted, she'll definitely say yes.
Even if she doesn't, it won't matter. I'll just stay at Medicine King Valley and guard the gate for her. No males allowed inside.]
[Month X, Day X. My wife got hurt. My heart aches for her.
I knew anyone who could become an Immortal Venerable had to be an idiot. He actually stopped me from getting revenge for my wife.
Whatever. I'll find a way to take him out too.]
[Month X, Day X. My wife woke up.]
[Month X, Day X. The first thing my wife did after waking up was keep treating my poison. My wife is so good to me.]
[Month X, Day X. My wife poisoned me with something else? Only she can cure it?
I really am special to her. She loves me.]
