Zhu Ling transmigrates into an xianxia novel with explicit content. She's a penniless, promiscuous female supporting character, and the System forcibly binds her to Xiao Li, a male supporting character with the legendary furnace physique.
Xiao Li is highly skilled and handsome. Aside from being antisocial and moody, he's practically the perfect partner for dual cultivation. The problem is, he practices demonic arts and follows the Heartless Dao. The thing he hates most is romantic attachment.
Yet even someone this powerful eventually loses control after being forced into sex. Overcome with shame and rage, he goes berserk and kills everyone in the novel except the male and female leads.
When Zhu Ling gets the mission to protect the male supporting character, she reveals a pained, meme-worthy smile, still intent on maintaining the original owner's useless persona. "Me?"
*
When people offer Xiao Li flowers and invite him to practice dual cultivation, Zhu Ling stomps in with a bang, tramples the drugged spirit flowers, then presents him with a wildflower she plucked from who-knows-where. Staring at his breathtakingly beautiful face, she gives him an extremely ingratiating smile. "Wanna hook up?"
Xiao Li gives her a cold look, takes the wildflower, and flings her away.
When Xiao Li returns injured, a crowd of male and female cultivators show up with trays of medicine, eager to fawn over him. Zhu Ling tosses out someone else's mismatched, precious medicine, takes out a box of cheap wound ointment, and applies it to Xiao Li. Drooling all the while, she asks, "Wanna hook up?"
Xiao Li glares at her, keeps the ointment, and throws her out.
**
Xiao Li is drugged after all.
Zhu Ling rushes over in a panic and manages to chase off the sleazy villain trying to take advantage of him. When she turns around, she sees Xiao Li, his clothes disheveled, pressing his lips together as he looks at her with a complicated expression.
Not daring to provoke him, Zhu Ling turns and runs, but he pins her against the doorframe. In the candlelight, his face is captivating and dangerous.
"Why aren't you asking this time?"
Remembering what she'd said to provoke him earlier, Zhu Ling shrinks back. "N-no... I'm not asking..."
"Then what if I ask you?"
As the distance between them suddenly closes, Zhu Ling's heart skips a beat. Could she be the one who took his virtue after all?
She steels herself and tries to look pure and disinterested. "N-no... I don't want to."
**
In the end, Zhu Ling can't resist temptation and sleeps with him.
The next morning, feeling the sudden abundance of spiritual energy flowing through her, she thinks, I'm done for.
She meets Xiao Li's cool gaze from the bed and turns back with an ingratiating smile to coax him. "Don't worry. I'll treat you well."
