The Celestial Prodigy Senior Brother's Dark Moonlight

[Major revisions made. Please don't confuse the main text with pirated copies. Thank you, everyone!]

Xie Cheng has a junior sister.

She is peerlessly beautiful and a genius beyond compare. She doesn't even take him seriously, and says he owes her a lantern and a life.

So Xie Cheng descends from his lofty pedestal, covered in blood. He crosses countless mountains and rivers, over heaps of bones, and uses the last of his strength to reach her side.

In her previous life, Nan Xing was incredibly powerful, notorious as well as celebrated. No one but Xie Cheng could stand against her. And she did indeed die by his sword.

Reborn at seventeen, she has nothing and is utterly disillusioned. Nan Xing resolves to become an invincible, lonely, great villain, just like she was in her previous life.

She hasn't become a great villain yet, but she has become her nemesis's junior sister.

Everyone in the immortal sects envies her: Xie Cheng is handsome and aloof, looking down on the world, yet he treats Nan Xing like a precious jewel. He's afraid others will covet her, but can't resist showing her off in the palm of his hand.

Nan Xing suddenly remembers her previous life: a young man sitting alone on a high platform, radiant with brilliance, snapping his fingers to knock down her wish lantern, his expression proud and indifferent.

"You pray for blessings from the gods, yet dare to speak falsely and blaspheme. If you can ask it of yourself, why ask the gods?"

So love really can bring someone down from their lofty pedestal.

Another age of chaos arrives. The three realms descend into war, and the immortal sects turn against one another. On the eve of her wedding, Nan Xing defects from Tianwaitian and becomes the dazzling "Big Dipper," whose brilliance shakes the world.

Looking at Xie Cheng, who has pursued her for a thousand miles, Nan Xing grits her teeth. "Do you want to kill me too, Senior Brother?"

But Xie Cheng holds his sword to his own throat, humbling himself to threaten her with his life and beg her to turn back before it's too late.

She broke his sword and shattered his Dao heart.

Years later, Nan Xing has become the dark moonlight of Tianwaitian's senior brother, a name that makes humans, ghosts, immortals, and demons alike tremble.

1. The heroine is the strongest, bar none. In the end, she gains both fame and fortune, and wins her senior brother's heart.

2. Lots of original worldbuilding. The plot and romance are evenly balanced in this sweet-and-sour, feel-good story. No angst for either lead. Both are pure in body and heart. Happy ending.

3. Comments are open. Looking forward to chatting with you. Please add it to your favorites!

"Reach for the Stars": The rise of a young emperor and empress!

-

In the sixteenth year of Yanxing, the Great Yong dynasty falls, plunging the land into chaos as warlords vie for supremacy.

But in the end, the prize goes to a country boy.

Since ancient times, heroes have come from every walk of life. Xiao Ce has survived a dangerous life in the martial world, been a rebel stirring up the winds of change, and even served as the sidekick to a down-on-her-luck princess.

The fallen princess loves stargazing. She still remembers how, beneath the shining river of stars, Xiao Ce leaned close and brazenly declared with a grin, "What's the fun in just looking at the stars? I'll take you up to a tall tower and pluck one for you."

Shang Yuan rested her chin in one hand and pushed him away in exasperation. "My Star-Picking Tower already belongs to someone else."

"I'll take it back for you."

Through all his trials and tribulations, Xiao Ce never bothered to conceal the truth, and let the court historians record it all. But when it came to serving Shang Yuan, the young emperor blushed, choosing his words with care. He said only this:

The thing he had every right to boast about was not conquering this vast empire, but that in his reckless youth, he had stolen its most noble princess from a Great Yong already on the brink of collapse.

Theme: Heaven has its laws, and people have their feelings.
