At the cultivation world's Demon-Slaying Assembly, held once every twenty years, Jiang Zhi Que, the youngest junior sister of the Hehuan Sect, fell for the chief disciple of Kunlun Divine Palace at first sight.
Bai Yangshan, the chief disciple of Kunlun Divine Palace, was bright and elegant, with a handsome, refined appearance. He was not only good-looking and gentle-spoken, but also a once-in-a-century talent with a top-grade yang constitution, the "ultimate prize for dual cultivation" described in the Hehuan Sect's manual.
But the people of Kunlun Divine Palace deeply despised the Hehuan Sect's lewd cultivation methods. Her senior sister warned Jiang Zhi Que not to pursue anyone from Kunlun, especially Bai Yangshan. He was a candidate to become the next sect leader, and he couldn't lose his virginity before taking over.
Jiang Zhi Que wanted him so badly that she swore she wouldn't return until she had won him over.
As they say, the one who lives near the water gets to admire the moon first. She heard he was kind-hearted, so she left the Hehuan Sect, disguised herself as a pitiful blind girl, and went to Kunlun to become his disciple.
To make Bai Yangshan fall for her, Jiang Zhi Que tried every trick she could think of. She brought him soup every day, carved jade pendants, picked flowers and lit incense...
But all she got in return was his gentle yet distant smile. He accepted her kindness while keeping her at arm's length. "Thank you, Junior Sister."
Jiang Zhi Que: You leave me no choice.
If she couldn't have his heart, at least she had to have him. Otherwise, she really wouldn't be able to return to the Hehuan Sect. So, after one mission down the mountain, Jiang Zhi Que used a cup of drugged wine to knock him out.
While everyone searched for Bai Yangshan, Jiang Zhi Que hid him in an underground palace and stayed by his side every moment. Her senior brother resisted in words, but his body told a different story. He had a charm all his own.
Hearing footsteps overhead, Jiang Zhi Que twined her fingers in his dangling black hair, teasing him as she whispered:
"Brother Bai, actually, I've liked you for a long time."
Blindfolded, Bai Yangshan pressed his lips together and turned his head away. His restrained sweat soaked through his clothes.
Afterward, Jiang Zhi Que let him go back.
On the day he was rescued, Jiang Zhi Que went to bring him medicine. Covered in wounds, Bai Yangshan grabbed her sleeve. "Junior Sister, I met a madman..."
"Senior Brother, I'm leaving the Divine Palace."
The Divine Palace's new junior sister was named Jiang Zhi Que. Her parents had both died, leaving her homeless and adrift. Though blind, she was kindhearted, and she loved following Bai Yangshan around, calling him "Senior Brother" at every turn.
Bai Yangshan felt sorry for her past and wanted to protect her, so he took her along every time he went down the mountain on a mission.
He remembered all the kindness she showed him, but the sect rules stood in the way, so he could only hide his excessive feelings in his heart.
The day he realized he liked her, he casually asked, "Why are you so good to me, Junior Sister?"
She said, "There's someone I really like. His surname is Bai, too, and he's a lot like you, Senior Brother."
Bai Yangshan asked with a bitter smile, "If you met him again, what would you do?"
"Lock him up and keep him all to myself."
Later, in the dark, cold underground palace, Bai Yangshan heard her call him "Brother Bai" while he was blindfolded.
Bai Yangshan had a dark, despicable thought: If only she really meant him...
After being rescued from the underground palace, Bai Yangshan deliberately brought it up in front of Jiang Zhi Que, trying to make her realize that the person she'd made love to was actually him.
But before he could even begin, he heard her say she was leaving.
"There's one more thing. I lied to you, Senior Brother. I'm not blind."
