Coming up next: Rejected for the 10,086th Time When Applying to Pilot a Mecha~
The strongest artifact cultivator in the Three Realms, Lu Zhao, ascended to immortality amid rolling thunder and torrential rain. A wormhole was torn open in the sky by a bolt of lightning.
When Lu Zhao opened her eyes again, chunks of broken metal crackling with electricity and countless flying machines hovered before her. Beneath her lay a handsome, disheveled man, his eyes brimming with tears.
She looked down. The man immediately put on a pitiful expression. The deep V-neck of his clothes revealed a tiny mole on his chest as he pleaded, "Big sister."
As far as she knew, this man had just tried to kill her.
Lu Zhao was completely unruffled. "What are those flying machines in the sky?"
The man: ??
Only after the man explained did Lu Zhao learn that the people piloting those flying machines were there to arrest them both. They wanted her because the heavenly lightning had blown up the entire mecha base, and they wanted him because he was a notorious fugitive.
Lu Zhao chuckled. Mechas? They were just lumps of metal. This was right up her alley.
So Lu Zhao, who had always believed in keeping the peace, immediately took the man's hand and presented him to the patrol officers. "The criminal is right here. In addition, I will repair this place within a month as compensation."
The patrol officers looked at each other. "Aren't you two married?"
Lu Zhao: ??
Pretending to be a block of wood x a beautiful incubus
Immortal Venerable and mecha engineer x criminal and mercenary

2. Includes a past-life-and-present-life plot.
3. The male lead isn't a prop or a delicate flower. He just knows how to put on an act!!
