A warm-hearted, people-pleasing, straight-laced medicine cultivator gong × a gloomy, obsessive sword cultivator ghost king shou
Ning Huaiye was just an ordinary high school boy passing through when, in a stroke of bad luck, he transmigrated into an old-school harem novel aimed at male readers. A System appeared to coax him along: Work hard, cultivate, ascend, and become a saint, and you'll get to go home. I believe in you, kid.
Forced into this against his will, Ning Huaiye had no choice but to grit his teeth and follow the System's instructions. But after the System set him up with five, six, seven, eight melodramatic romantic entanglements, he'd had enough. He decided that if he ever listened to that bastard's nonsense again, he'd be a dog. From then on, he trained while deliberately doing the opposite of whatever his crazy System told him.
What? You want me to nurse the beautiful demon cultivator I found on the road until he's recovered? Nice knowing you, buddy. I'll leave the medicine here. I've got somewhere to be.
What? You want me to take the pretty young medicine apprentice I happened to save as my follower? Here's some travel money. May our paths cross again someday. Farewell!
What? You want me to stay away from that cold, sinister, well-connected young man at the entrance trials? Fellow Daoist, from now on, we're brothers from different parents!
The System was bewildered and lost, cursing as the plot drifted further and further off course. The strange thing was, Ning Huaiye, the male lead, had followed none of the expected storylines and gathered none of the harem, yet his mission progress kept steadily increasing.
The System couldn't make sense of it.
Until one night, Lin Quefeng, the future great villain and the good friend Ning Huaiye had made at the entrance trials against the System's instructions, opened the door and climbed into Ning Huaiye's bed.
