[She deliberately deceives him, teases him, then runs away, while he falls hard and wants more teasing, only to find her gone.]

Bei Su awoke in her coffin. Sealed away for a hundred years, the evil god opened her eyes to find that her life-bound magical artifact was damaged and needed a vessel to repair it.

But her artifact was picky. It rejected anyone who wasn't good-looking or talented. After looking high and low, it chose the Dao Lord with a golden lotus body.

A golden lotus could nurture all things, making him the perfect vessel.

On the night of the full moon, when he was at his weakest, Bei Su succeeded in getting what she wanted.

No matter how she tried to refine him, he made no sound, still maintaining his lofty, immaculate bearing. The more Bei Su looked at him, the more she wanted to defile that golden lotus.

Under the moonlight, the man's fair skin flushed red from the burning heat, and a tear glistened at the corner of his eye.

She smiled nonchalantly. "Why are you crying? It'll be over soon."

But she couldn't succeed in one try. She would have to refine him several more times to turn him completely into her vessel.

She never expected things to go wrong.

Cheng Jing was a Dao Lord revered by all, just one step away from ascending. Yet a woman had taken his innocence.

The lightless hall was filled with her presence. Cheng Jing endured her teasing, waiting for the evil thing in his belly to be born so he could kill them both.

But she died first, right before his eyes.

On the day he was supposed to undergo his tribulation, cultivators from across the cultivation world gathered at the Dao Sect to witness this Dao Lord ascend to immortality.

Yet he never appeared.

The Dao Lord they revered had borne an evil god's child, buried her with his own hands, then returned to undergo his tribulation.

Cheng Jing didn't want to admit it, but she had tamed him.

Every night when he closed his eyes, her figure filled his dreams. She kissed his lips and whispered in his ear.

But when he awoke, all that remained was himself, still immersed in her teasing.

He forced himself to forget the humiliation she had brought him, until he sensed her presence at the recruitment ceremony. She hadn't died at all, and she had forgotten him.

Ah...

Cheng Jing raised a hand to hide the madness in his eyes and chuckled.

Was it his turn to tease her now?

*

At the ceremony, the cultivators watched in shock as the Dao Lord accepted a woman as his disciple. Later, someone went to ask her what it was like to become the Dao Lord's first disciple, but no matter how hard they looked, they couldn't find her.

Bei Su, whose faked death and amnesia had been discovered, sat on a lotus dais with her out-of-control "Master" before her.

Cheng Jing radiated her evil aura from within and without. The deep red demonic mark between his brows made him look bewitching and seductive, but his words were full of hatred.

"Do it again. Die in front of me."

Bonus scene:

After recovering her memories, Bei Su had no intention of taking responsibility for Cheng Jing. She picked up her repaired artifact and was about to leave.

Then she saw Cheng Jing sitting quietly on the lotus dais, his hair hanging loose, a ribbon tied at his waist that would come undone with a single tug. His misty eyes turned toward her.

Bei Su: Damn it, this lotus really knows how to seduce people.

Fake death + amnesia + male pregnancy, the aloof beauty falls from his pedestal.

At first, the heroine forcibly takes the man. In the middle, the man seduces the woman. Later, it's a big, messy stew.

Not GB or female supremacy. The heroine's true form is a snake.

Blurb:

Meng Shuxue was punished by being made to kneel in the ancestral hall.

She dug up an immortal object hidden beneath the floor.

It was white and tender, like tofu pudding or pig brain. It felt soft to the touch, wrapped in a greasy film, and was a little disgusting.

But she ate it.

She wanted its immortal power, so she wouldn't be thrown out of the Meng family and married off far away, only to die miserably while trying to flee back home.

After a huge argument with her older brother, Meng Shuxue had a dream.

In the dream, she was the wicked supporting female lead in a brother-sister romance novel. As Meng Fuqing's younger sister, she was doted on endlessly, growing more and more arrogant and domineering. Only Meng Fuqing could keep her in line.

Later, it was discovered that she wasn't Meng's mother's biological daughter. When the real heiress of the Meng family returned, she gradually took away the affection and attention that Meng Shuxue had once enjoyed.

Even Meng Fuqing stopped being as close to her as before, growing increasingly cold.

Unable to bear it, she made a terrible mistake and nearly killed the real heiress.

Meng Fuqing was furious and never saw her again. The Meng family hastily married her off far away.

She refused to leave and fled while on the way to her wedding.

But she died on the road back to the Meng family, where she was going to find Meng Fuqing.

After waking from the dream, she found that everything that had happened matched it.

Meng Shuxue remembered the immortal object in her dream, the one that granted immortal power when eaten. She would eat it and gain that power, and then she could change everything.

So what if she wasn't born into the Meng family? All she wanted was her older brother.

Meng Shuxue waited expectantly for seven days to pass, when she would gain immortal power.

But then she noticed her belly gradually growing, as though she were pregnant.

Terrified, she hid in her bedroom, afraid to see anyone.

Until Meng Fuqing came back.

She lifted the covers, afraid to touch her belly, and asked him in terror, "Brother, what do I do?"

Meng Fuqing stared at her swollen belly and suddenly smiled.

What should they do?

Why, of course...

Make it disappear.

How could his sister have someone else's child in her belly?

[She's not really pregnant.

Twisted, dark, extremely melodramatic.

The leads already know from the beginning that they aren't related by blood.

The heroine is spoiled, can't handle hardship, throws tantrums, and isn't very bright. If this character type isn't for you, run!

The hero supports the heroine unconditionally. Whatever his younger sister does is right.

Blurb:

Yun Xi was born with an alluring bone structure and was chosen to be a poison vessel. The plan was for her to marry Qing Heng later and transfer the poison into him during dual cultivation, killing him.

Once activated, the poison would flare up every fifteenth of the month. The only way to suppress it was through dual cultivation, until it flared up again the following month.

After nine times, the poison would have transferred completely into Qing Heng, and he would be doomed.

Following her instructions, Yun Xi successfully became Qing Heng's Dao companion. But they cultivated together only once, on their wedding night, and he never touched her again.

With the poison about to flare up, she had to find a way to cultivate with him to relieve it.

But she never expected that when Qing Heng went to quell the Demon Venerable's rampage, they would perish together, leaving behind only his life-bound sword, named Tan Xue.

Yun Xi became a widow.

But the poison in her body had not yet been fully removed.

Yun Xi had never considered seeking out anyone else. She was already Qing Heng's wife.

If she didn't get the poison out, it would torture her to death.

She turned her gaze toward the life-bound sword her deceased Dao companion had left behind. After agonizing over it for days, she finally took hold of it.

Like her dead Dao companion, Tan Xue was cold all over, like untouchable snow on a mountain, leaving her embarrassed and guilty.

But a sword could only provide temporary relief.

She relied on Tan Xue more and more, yet still couldn't suppress the poison.

Until one day, Tan Xue grew scorching hot. She was so startled that she threw it away, only to see a figure appear.

Yun Xi stared wide-eyed in astonishment at the familiar face reflected before her.

It was clearly her dead Dao companion!

There was not a trace of emotion in his eyes. His voice was cold as he told her he was the sword spirit of this sword, not the deceased Immortal Lord Qing Heng.

He had no memories of her or Qing Heng.

Yun Xi didn't dare use a sword that had gained a sword spirit, even though the poison was tormenting her to the point of unbearable agony.

The sword spirit said he could help her, but she immediately refused.

"I have a Dao companion."

"That dead Immortal Lord Qing Heng?" The sword spirit sneered. "You'll come begging me sooner or later."

Yun Xi went to beg him. She truly couldn't take it anymore.

The sword spirit's cold fingers gripped her waist as his husky voice sounded by her ear.

"Weren't you going to remain chaste for your dead Dao companion? Giving up already?"

Yun Xi bit her lip and buried her face in his arms, pretending not to hear.

They had the same face, after all. Being with him... shouldn't count as betraying Qing Heng, right?

The sword spirit is the hero's soul. The hero isn't dead. He came back as a ghost.

The hero fell in love with the heroine at first sight. As a sword spirit, he initially had no memories, but he'll remember later.

Recommending another upcoming book: After My Husband Died, I Spent Ten Years Killing Fish in the Cultivation World.

Blurb:

Three-sentence summary:

A beautiful old man who looks young, but is 3,000 years old, dug me out of the ground and tricked me into digging the heart out of another beautiful young man who was 17.

When I really dug his heart out, the young man died and the beautiful old man lost it.

I felt so guilty for killing the young man by taking his heart that I spent ten years killing fish in the cultivation world to atone.

Turns out he wasn't dead.

1.

Before Ji Rumo dug me out of the ground, I was a nearly withered cypress vine flower.

After nursing me back to health, Ji Rumo sent me to the Immortal Alliance to look for a Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart.

I spent three years undercover in the Immortal Alliance before discovering that the heart I'd been searching for was inside Wen Xingqiao, my "senior brother" in the Immortal Alliance.

He might be called my senior brother, but he didn't act like one at all. For three years, he was always picking fights with me and nearly discovered my true identity.

When I found out he had the Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart, my first reaction wasn't happiness.

After all, we'd spent so much time together, and I'd grown somewhat attached to him...

Ji Rumo could tell I was hesitating, so he controlled me and made me dig out Wen Xingqiao's heart.

The worst part was that as Wen Xingqiao lay dying with his heart ripped out, he actually told me he liked me.

"..."

Aaaah! Damn you, Wen Xingqiao! You're about to die, so why say something that makes me feel so guilty!?

Because of those words, I disobeyed Ji Rumo for the first time and didn't give him the heart.

I even stayed in the Immortal Alliance and killed fish expressionlessly for ten years.

2.

Ten years later, I saw Wen Xingqiao in the demon prison.

The myriad demons were in turmoil, trying to break through the barrier and escape.

He appeared surrounded by cultivators and, in the blink of an eye, wiped out all the demons causing chaos in the prison. His icy gaze landed precisely on me.

I watched in shock as he came up to me. Behind him, demon blood fell like rain, yet not a speck of dust touched him.

He reached out, wiped the drop of blood from my face with his fingertip, and smiled at me. "Why are you looking at me like that? Did you think I was completely dead?"

Me: "..."

"You should've told me you weren't dead! I wasted all that time killing fish!"

3.

No one knew how regretful Song Xishan was after digging out Wen Xingqiao's heart.

The people of the Immortal Alliance only saw their usually cheerful junior sister kneel for ten days outside her master's cave after Wen Xingqiao died, then take her leave and depart the alliance without looking back.

Seven years later, she returned carrying a head, her face and eyes steeped in bloodthirsty malice.

Seven years ago, before Song Xishan left, her master had given her these words:

"Since you've made up your mind, then as your master, I wish you a safe and successful journey down the mountain, and a peaceful return."

After that, Song Xishan went down the mountain and began her ten-year "fish-killing" journey.

[She doesn't really kill fish. It's a code name for her enemies. In reality, the heroine is avenging her senior brother.
