Transmigrated into a cultivation world with no CP, Ying Xuan has a simple, clear mission: massacre her way through the world and take down the big boss, Yan Huiming, so she can go home.
Good news: She can finally stop being such a pushover.
Bad news: It seems she isn't the only one bound to a System...
Even worse news: She can hear someone else's System!
After wreaking havoc across the world, the witch appears, and the people have suffered under her for far too long. Everyone is desperate to avoid her and kill her at the first opportunity.
Even though she's been sealed for years, Yan Huiming, the head of Huazhen Sect, still considers her a formidable enemy. He has already laid a vast web of wards throughout the sect.
To avoid harming the innocent, Ying Xuan chooses to strike at night.
She has only just attacked one sect when she sees a man standing beneath the bright moon, his bearing as clear and serene as the wind, sword in hand and pointed at her.
Ying Xuan turns to run, but he catches her after just two steps, and she tumbles into the robe that flares across his chest.
According to the book, Yan Huiming is a smiling tiger who can kill in an instant. Given the setup, this has to be him.
Sure enough, he pats her shoulder. In the blink of an eye, his flying sword kills a roomful of demons. Then he smiles gently and asks, "Don't be afraid. How many do you need to kill? I'll help you."
Ying Xuan is horrified and pretends to faint, dropping to the ground.
Two System voices overlap:
[The big boss has appeared. Kill him to complete the final mission.]
[The target is extremely frightened. Affection continues to decrease.]
The System cries out in panic: [The target has fainted! Trigger skin-to-skin contact to wake him!]
Ying Xuan, who has suddenly started hearing another System's voice: "?"
A blue notification appears before her eyes: [The career and romance plots of this book are intersecting! You are on opposing sides. Begin a passionate romance of love and hate!]
Ying Xuan breaks down. She's here to kill people, not fall in love!
Before she can think, warm lips suddenly press against hers, lingering and grinding. Ying Xuan's instincts kick in and she throws a punch. The man on top of her flies into the wall, demolishing a house.
[Congratulations, Host. The big boss has suffered physical and mental damage. Eliminate him immediately.]
Ying Xuan stares in confusion at her hand. She doesn't think she even hit him that hard?
Meanwhile, the other System wails: "That's not the right order! What couple kisses the first time they meet...? Host, next time, why not hold hands or hug?"

To successfully assassinate Yan Huiming, Ying Xuan pretends to make peace with him, working together to achieve their shared goal of living in harmony.
Later, she accidentally enters Yan Huiming's sea of consciousness.
"On Mid-Autumn Festival, she sneaked into a brothel to watch the male courtesans. Kiss her lips a hundred times."
"At the tournament, she stared as Senior Brother handed her a handkerchief. Kiss her neck a thousand times."
"She was asked to exterminate demons, and someone carried her while she was disguised as a bride. Kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death, kiss her to death..."
Only on the day she fully returns to herself does Ying Xuan realize that this lunatic has been tangled up with her for two lifetimes.
A career-minded villainess who only wants to kill, carrying a villainess script, vs. a love-struck man carrying a romance script, barely scraping by and failing at every turn
or
A soft girl with maxed-out combat stats who's timid and spineless vs. a gloomy man who uses his reputation to scare everyone away but has to guard against being murdered every single day
