The Dragon-Slaying Hero Chooses to Forgive

Lan Ling is an unfeeling sword immortal, renowned throughout the immortal sects for his peerless swordsmanship. People call him a cold beauty, but in truth, he's just a shy, reserved old-fashioned man.

On the day he ascends to immortality, a bolt of lightning strikes, and he transmigrates into a fast-paced revenge novel about the immortal world! He becomes the good-for-nothing ex-husband of the story's vengeful, gloomy, twisted, overpowered male lead...

In the original story, the male lead, Li Jingchun, was taken in as a child husband and abused in every way by the original character's family. They fed him dog food and made him sleep in a kennel, as if afraid he might survive the mistreatment.

Li Jingchun regarded the original character as his beloved, but the original character did nothing but hit and scold him, and cheated on him seventeen times, making Li Jingchun even more insecure, sharp-tempered, and extreme.

Lan Ling's mission is to return to Li Jingchun's miserable youth, support him, and make him fall in love with Lan Ling again!

Lan Ling's features are as serene as snow on a mountaintop, but his heart pounds nervously. Winning over a broken teenager... It shouldn't be that hard, right?

Li Jingchun is reborn at seventeen.

He spent ten years pouring his heart and soul into reaching the summit of the immortal sects. No one loved him, but at least he made sure no one dared despise him anymore. He'd only just gained a sliver of security, and now it's all gone.

Li Jingchun goes mad.

His heart grows more ruthless, and he decides to kill everyone who wronged him, especially Lan Ling, whom he never got the chance to take revenge on in his previous life.

But... why has Lan Ling suddenly become his partner, bound to share life and death with him?

His swordsmanship is dazzling, his manner elegant and composed, and his character above reproach. He's like the lover Li Jingchun longed for most in his troubled childhood, the one he imagined would love him.

Lan Ling speaks up for him, gets hurt for him, shares his punishments, and even helps cover up his crimes. His care is meticulous, and his affection is clumsy but obvious.

Suspicious, Li Jingchun spends the whole night picking apart Lan Ling's behavior, trying to find traces of a scheme or conspiracy.

At daybreak, Lan Ling opens the door and finds the immortal sects' evil lord, Li Jingchun, curled up pitifully outside, tears in his eyes as he says, "I like you."

Lan Ling feels like the mission has gone off track.

He was supposed to support Li Jingchun, but somehow Lan Ling has become the most dazzling rising star in the immortal sects, admired and praised by everyone, and even chosen in advance to be the sect leader.

Meanwhile, Li Jingchun has become the strongest sword in Lan Ling's hand.

Everyone says that Li Jingchun, the leading disciple of the Fourteen Continents Sect, is supremely talented and defies convention, yet is deeply devoted and obedient to his sect leader and senior brother. He's a mad dog only Lan Ling can keep in line.

Only Lan Ling knows that to raise this bad dog, he has to feed it with himself.

1v1. The love interest will return to his original world after a few chapters. This isn't a story about a doting husband. Romance and plot get equal attention.

The love interest doesn't love the original character. The protagonist is a gentle, shy sword immortal, but he's not socially anxious.

The original character is a few years older than the love interest, so he's an adult.

Dramatic melodrama disguised as a serious story.

Theme: Dedication to one's work, harmony, and kindness.
