#The Nemesis System Gets Overhauled into a Beloved-by-All System#
[Beloved-by-all, haughty and quick-tempered shou x domineering, ill-tempered, devoted puppy gong]
Guan Xingyan was a young master of a cultivation family who had always had everything go his way. Then he suddenly learned he wasn't their biological son. The real young master, Guan Heming, appeared out of nowhere and outshone him in every way, turning him into a laughingstock.
Because of their years of affection for him, the Guan family didn't kick him out. Instead, they told the two of them to call each other brothers.
But once the family's love and resources were taken from him, Guan Xingyan met a miserable end.
Only after dying as a disposable character did he learn that this world was a book and Guan Heming was the chosen one. Then a voice rang out in his sea of consciousness:
"Ding! Want to change your fate? The Nemesis System for Chosen Ones is at your service!"
He was reborn on the day he first met Guan Heming.
This time, he would take back everything he'd lost!
-
With the System's help, Guan Xingyan tempered his bones, sought immortal treasures, and competed alongside the chosen one, Guan Heming. He would make sure everyone had their eyes on him.
Before long, he had followers of his own and powerful people lending him a hand.
They belonged to the same sect. Whenever they met, neither could stand the other, and they were like fire and water.
There was just one strange thing: why were the rewards the Nemesis System gave him all things like a delicate and soft-body buff, a beauty-enhancing buff, and a naturally irresistible charm buff...?
-
On holidays, they still had to go home together and put on a show of brotherly affection.
While they were at it, Guan Heming sneered at him. "Haven't you noticed that your followers have ulterior motives?"
What kind of motives?
Guan Xingyan assumed he was deliberately trying to sow discord.
It wasn't until he accidentally got poisoned by an aphrodisiac and was trapped in a secret realm that he realized something was wrong. His followers and powerful allies were staring at him with hungry eyes. In a panic, he could only threaten the one person least likely to make a move on him, Guan Heming, and order him to come save him.
But when Guan Heming saw him, his gaze darkened slightly. "Brother, what makes you think I won't do anything?"
Furious, Guan Xingyan pounced on him and straddled him, intending to beat him. But something beneath him nudged upward...
-
Guan Heming was dazzled the first time he saw Guan Xingyan. But this arrogant, haughty fake brother had usurped his place, and had been spoiled rotten since childhood.
At first, knowing Guan Xingyan was in a difficult position, Guan Heming had specially shared the spirit artifact given to him by the clan leader. But Guan Xingyan's eyes had reddened, and he'd thrown it back at him. "I don't need your pity!"
As the chosen one, Guan Heming eventually reached the path to immortality and gained eternal life, but he kept thinking about his fake brother, who had died young.
Then one day, he was reborn.
Guan Heming watched Guan Xingyan train, wiping away his tears as he went...
He thought that Xingyan didn't really need to work so hard or prove anything. If Xingyan would only lower his head, Guan Heming would seek out everything in the world and give it to him.
