Bo Yujin is plagued by nightmares and jumbled memories. In fits and starts, he dreams of a few pages from an idle novel.
The book describes him tangled up with several men.
Things get so bad that Bo Yujin, a dignified sword cultivator, ends up as a bedmate, a treasured plaything, and a caged bird with no one to rely on.
When he wakes up again, only one thought remains:
“If these people are after me, it must be because I’m still not strong enough.”
Everyone in the cultivation world notices that the Tai Cang Sect's foremost sword cultivator has changed.
Now he's cold, arrogant, and eccentric, and spends all day obsessed with cultivation.
...And with his sword.
His junior brother confesses his love, but he remains unmoved.
His friend asks for his hand in marriage, but he dismisses him indifferently.
His master confines him, so he switches sects.
Someone comes to repay a debt of gratitude, and he hunts them down for a thousand miles.
Someone demands, “Bo Yujin, have you gone mad?”
Bo Yujin asks in confusion, “If they covet my body, why shouldn't I kill them?”
Before anyone can gather to denounce him, the truth comes to light.
His junior brother is actually a beast in disguise, intent on abusing Bo Yujin.
His friend's affection is false, and he only wants to seize Bo Yujin's family fortune.
His master is cold-blooded and hypocritical, secretly treating Bo Yujin as a substitute.
And the person who came to repay their debt of gratitude has an even more sinister identity: he is the Demon Crown Prince!
The cultivation world's sects: ...

Bo Yujin thinks highly of himself. Even when it comes to dual cultivation, he only seeks out his own sword.
By day, the beauty is cool and aloof. By night, he leans in the sword spirit's arms, his face flushed like a peach blossom. “...Next time you wrap around my waist, be gentler.”
The man who accidentally became a sword spirit during a lightning tribulation feels his heartless path shatter to pieces in that instant.
He is about to reveal his identity when Bo Yujin says tenderly, “Once I kill that great villain, our patriarch, we can elope and shatter the void to visit other worlds and see all the mountains and rivers. Even if the world calls me a pervert for falling in love with an object, I will never betray you.”
Bo Yujin's sword spirit, patriarch, Tan Xueshen: “...All right.”
[Read at your own risk]
The original novel is about the recipient's past life, so it counts as something the recipient has experienced.
So, as I define it for this story: the giver is pure, the recipient is not.
Everyone's darling, with lots of one-sided crushes on the recipient.
A ridiculously melodramatic, wish-fulfillment, silly little novel. Happy ending.
The mutual love between the leads is quite intense.
Theme: Let this heart never fall from its lofty aspirations.
