After Her Unrequited Love Failed, the High School Girl Faked Her Death
女高暗恋失败*死遁后
by Falling Branch (坠枝)
Synopsis
Lin Chaofang transmigrated into this chaotic world of cultivation. The first time she met the young Daoist Xie, who turned evil for love in the book, she was eighteen, fresh out of the college entrance exams, and in the brightest, most radiant years of her youth.
With her backpack on, she stood alone in a pool of blood.
She thought she was doomed.
The young Daoist appeared before her like an immortal descended from heaven. With cool, clear eyes and a jade-straight sword, he led her away from the sea of blood and mountains of corpses. He taught her to read and tie up her hair, protected her all the way, and even took her hand when she was heartbroken and despairing.
She thought that perhaps he liked her, just a little.
Until the day he denied it to her face in front of someone else.
So they were only friends.
*
Her confession was cruelly rejected, and Lin Chaofang's heart turned completely cold.
In this cultivation world, where status and hierarchy mattered, she was a mortal with no cultivation, while he was a heaven-blessed prodigy high above her. From the very beginning, they had never stood a chance.
Lin Chaofang told herself that from this day on, she wouldn't like him anymore.
To complete her mission, Lin Chaofang began avoiding him. If all went well, she could escape this world that didn't belong to her.
But on the night his betrothal was finalized, the young man barged into her chamber despite his injuries. His face was as pale as paper as he pressed closer, his fingertips gripping her wrist.
The usually composed and proper young man lowered his eyes, his long lashes trembling. A deep flush colored the corners of his eyes. "Now, are you choosing my elder brother too?"
*
Their feelings quietly changed as they spent their days and nights together, and he became more and more unreasonable.
Deep in the plum grove, hot springs steamed beneath a haze of white mist. The lamplight was dim and flickering, and scattered shadows shimmered on the water.
Xie Dao'an looked up, gazing at the shadows they had painted together. In the lamplight, a woman turned her bright, lively eyes, her every feature gradually overlapping with hers.
His Adam's apple bobbed heavily. A drop of warmth fell softly into the rippling pool.
After that, he imagined her in his arms more than once.
[Bonus Scene]
A hundred years passed in the blink of an eye, and the two met again.
But what greeted her was a flash of icy swordlight.
The young Daoist who had once been cold on the outside but warm within, tenderly protecting her, was no longer the same.
Standing high above her, he looked down with contempt and said coldly, "Demon scum, get out of my sight."
Lin Chaofang looked at the glaring mission panel before her, then at his cold, ruthless face. Her nose stung. She rushed through countless flashes of swordlight and clung tightly to him.
"Young Daoist Xie... don't you remember me?"
The disciples had assumed that this demoness would surely die by the sword. But the renowned Jade-Faced Sword Sovereign, usually so composed and dignified, went deathly pale, his pupils trembling.
His wrist jerked, and his long sword clattered to the ground.
One moment, he had been high above the clouds. The next, he had fallen beyond all hope of recovery.

The Path of the Mortal Woman's Cultivation is an immersive, historical-style, full-dive xianxia online game. Great sects stand divided, and the martial world and the world of immortals coexist.
Its graphics are exquisite and detailed, it offers a wide range of branching choices, and the interactive experience is immersive. Most importantly, the male leads are all distinct, with a wide range of types, including tsunderes, aloof types, sharp-tongued types, and gentle types...
Unfortunately, free-to-play gamer Lin Baoxia played nonstop for a day and a night, only to successfully send herself into the game, where she became an insignificant NPC.
In a game world where immortals and demons are born and monsters run rampant, she must fix the game's derailed plot and awaken its original heroine, Chu Yu, if she wants to return to reality.
Only the heroine's fated person can awaken her. Lin Baoxia has no choice but to rush all over the place, doing her best to complete missions while tirelessly searching for the person fated to be with the heroine.
Unfortunately, every time she transmigrates, she ends up as either an unfinished medicinal puppet or a lowly slave at the mercy of others.
Mission 1: Complete the task given by the master of the City of Life and Death. Find the medicinal ingredient and awaken the game's original heroine, Chu Yu, to set the game's story in motion. [Incomplete]
Mission 2: Deliberately get close to Shen Yaoshan and earn his trust. Secretly protect him, help him evade the pursuit of the various sects, and escape danger safely. [Incomplete]
Mission 3: Stop Chu Lanting from resurrecting her, and pull the spirit arrow from her body with her own hands. [Incomplete]
Final Mission: Kill the biggest bug in the game, which is you. [Complete]

Just as she closed her eyes, ready to go home, the System informed her that the missions had been assigned by mistake. She had to find the Gate of Heaven and enter it to return to reality.
After dying gruesomely in three different worlds and time periods, Lin Baoxia adjusted her mindset, carefully kept her secret identity hidden, and tried her best to make it to the end of the game.
At the moment she stepped into the Gate of Heaven, she seemed to remember that night.
The young man walked down Wuyi Lane with his sword on his back. The scent of osmanthus drifted through the air, moonlight spilled over the rooftops, and the blue-gray flagstones reflected his slender silhouette.
She walked on tiptoe, stepping in his shadow and following him all the way.
If she could, she wanted to watch him walk toward spring.
Silver-tongued, sword-in-mouth wanderer vs. gentle, healing girl who saves him
The Evil Ghost Boy Says He Likes Me
Lin Zhanchun transmigrated into a melodramatic xianxia adventure novel and became a cannon-fodder simp who didn't survive three chapters.
Not only did she have to survive in a cultivation world overrun by demons and monsters, she also had to win over the "evil ghost boy," one of the main characters, famed for his fiery temper, sharp tongue, and good looks.
Lin Zhanchun, deadpan: Ah! Let's just destroy everything!
The mission was hellishly difficult. The evil ghost boy had a short fuse, a vicious tongue, and was petty and narrow-minded!
Lin Zhanchun praised his stunning looks, and he scoffed, "Jealous? Too bad you were born plain, dull, and ordinary. Stop coming over here and getting in my way."
Lin Zhanchun thoughtfully brought him pastries. He looked disgusted, his tone cutting: "They look awful and taste even worse. How clumsy are you? Everything you cook tastes terrible."
Lin Zhanchun praised his peerless swordsmanship, saying he moved like a startled swan. He mocked her coldly: "You could never hope to reach my level in your whole life. Just stay behind me and watch."
Lin Zhanchun: I'm done! How can he be so cruel to a cute girl like me? He's no gentleman at all!
System: ...Then who do you want to win over?
Lin Zhanchun: Ahem, I think that good friend of the little evil ghost is pretty great.
System: ?
Lin Zhanchun: Shi Yunzhu, the young Daoist who is like a gentle breeze beneath a bright moon, warm and modest, composed and self-possessed, and never says anything cruel!
System: ...You have quite the collection of compliments ready. It's clear you've had your eye on him for a while.
*
Sure enough, after switching targets, Lin Zhanchun's life went smoothly, and she no longer had to listen to that evil ghost boy constantly insulting people with his sharp tongue. She felt much better.
But before long, the boy started showing up every now and then like a ghost, disrupting her plans each time.
Lin Zhanchun couldn't beat him, so she could only rant to herself: Can't this annoying third wheel get away from me already?
*
Young Master Wan Chaosheng had been adored by everyone since childhood, and had always despised those little white flowers who made a scene everywhere and pretended to be weak.
When he heard that Lin Zhanchun, who had been pursuing him for a long time, was telling everyone she had figured out her feelings and was in love with someone else, his mind went blank while he was practicing his sword. The long sword slipped from his hand and plunged straight into the pool with a splash.
Wan Chaosheng awkwardly fished out his sword and climbed ashore, firmly convinced that she was playing some little trick on purpose, pretending to act aloof to make him chase her.
Then, during the Flower Festival, Lin Zhanchun invited Shi Yunzhu to go out together. That blockhead actually accepted her invitation. Wan Chaosheng's heart gave a violent lurch, and he finally understood
Wait... this time, she really means it!
Tsundere, arrogant, cool guy x resourceful high school girl, the perfect match! I said it!
Theme: My friend is the one I love
