What Does the Young Lady Say About This?

The new novel, Don't Tell Anyone I Taught You This, is complete! A genius, suspicious, fiercely protective young heiress x a lovestruck, obedient puppy of a dragon, Long Xiaotian [A young couple, both with golden fingers that take unexpected turns later on] The fallen fiancé of the young lady of the Cen family has come knocking. The heiress watches coldly from the sidelines. The old granny living in her sea of consciousness eagerly suggests: Go for it, date him! This is perfect material for an unsentimental cultivator who kills her husband to attain the Dao! The fiancé remains unruffled. The feel-good System living in his sea of consciousness beeps wildly: Break it off, right now! The first step in a Dragon-Proud-Heaven protagonist's life is getting his engagement canceled! At first, they exchange a look, each with their own agenda, and silently agree: Never mind, we'll wait until the elder who arranged the engagement comes out of seclusion, then break it off at once. But things soon start to take a strange turn. The handsome, bargain fiancé not only tells her about the System, but also reveals the plot it has laid out for him. He actually hates the fate the System has planned for him. Miss Cen: Enough. Those ridiculous things it predicted will never happen, of course. Explore secret realms, kill demonic cultivators, learn spells, glimpse the Heavenly Dao. What else can they do? Naturally, seize opportunities, break the plot, take control of their own fates, and listen to the elders' ancient gossip all the way to becoming peerless geniuses. At last, the Cen family ancestor emerges from seclusion and hurriedly prepares to preside over the annulment. Cen Zaisi ponders for a moment, then beckons Qi Bai's life-bound spirit sword to her side. With another gesture, she summons Qi Bai himself. Cen Zaisi: “Actually, our relationship is pretty good now...” Before she can finish, she feels the faintest tug on her right sleeve. Glancing over, Cen Zaisi sees Qi Bai quietly holding on to the cuff of her right sleeve. His fingers are slender, resting lightly against the pale green fabric. So Cen Zaisi changes her mind. “Good enough to say we're in love with each other.” “Anyway, that's how it is,” the heiress says. “He insists on being my dog. What can I do?” Long Xiaotian nods. “That's right. I insist.” Cen Zaisi: [I've always believed this. Even if it leads to ruin, I'll accept anything I choose for myself. I must make my own choices in life.] ★ Character card artists: Hei Heiyu and Jiang Yiner For full-size character art, see xhs/wb: Yu Chaoshen Shi [Reader's Guide] 1.

Come take a look OvO] Don't Tell Anyone I Taught You This (The master and disciple share only a chaotic family bond. The love interest is tentatively the fun-loving guy next door who enjoys the show and somehow ended up with half a disciple.) Immortal Venerable Chongjing had a dream. In the dream, a voice told her that she had taken in an evil disciple, born wicked. Though exceptionally gifted, he would sooner or later slaughter the heavens and destroy the world, betray his master and ancestors, and, unable to win her love, resort to taking her by force. The Venerable: “...” Really? Which one of these fools who have spent a whole month practicing immobilizing talismans and still can't copy them correctly deserves to be called “exceptionally gifted”?! Grading their talismans is enough to give me a heart demon! Why are you laughing? The other disciples are already going down the mountain to vanquish demons and live through eight hundred twists and turns of love and hate, while my little brats can only hold up a branch and go, “Hehe, Master, a snail!” Where is that evil disciple? Why hasn't he come yet? Someone save me! Immortal Venerable's Diary, Day One: Foolish Disciple A brought a book on talisman fundamentals from the library and said she planned to study it. My heart is comforted. She finally remembered that the sect exams are tomorrow. Immortal Venerable's Diary, Day Two: I heard some good news today. Foolish Disciple A crammed at the last minute and made good progress. She didn't come in last. Then I heard some bad news: Foolish Disciple B came in last. Why haven't I kicked him out of the sect yet? Immortal Venerable's Diary, Day Three: My senior sister came to see me. Foolish Disciple C planted vegetables on her mountain. Cultivators must not get angry. Immortal Venerable's Diary, Day Four: It's been over a month since I taught them to draw immobilizing talismans, and Foolish Disciple B still turned his into an earth-burrowing talisman. Honestly, I should just send him next door. Immortal Venerable's Diary, Day Five: A dream. In it, the evil disciple said he had decided not to join my sect. There were too many foolish disciples, and it would tarnish his reputation as an evil seed. I woke up feeling strangely melancholy. The Venerable: Why isn't he coming? How dare he not come? Come on, you have to! I'm going to find you right now! A chaotic cultivation academy story, with the female lead as a put-upon master. Yes, the female lead herself is incredibly powerful, but her reputation as a teacher is hanging by a thread () Theme: Life is a choice made through free will.
