I Pulled the Marriage Sword from the Spear Immortal

[Tough-as-grass heroine vs. tsundere, sharp-tongued ancestor and refined senior brother]

Lan Lingzhou returned to six hundred years in the past.

To retrieve her lost soul fragment, she traveled alone to the year the world was about to descend into chaos. Amid the turmoil of war, she happened upon the future Spear Immortal as a young boy.

Yan Lingyi began studying the classics at three, entered the Dao at five, and inherited the legacy of the previous Spear Immortal. With a divine spear in hand, the young man stood against the wind, breaking through mountains and seas with a flick of his finger and overturning the heavens above the rivers and peaks with a sweep of his hand.

By chance, a girl who had strayed into the wrong era and the young genius fell into the same perilous predicament. Through a series of mishaps, they formed a “Heartbound Bell” bond, forcing them to share life and death, fortune and misfortune from then on.

The young man held himself above everyone else. Even a little disheveled, he remained striking, looking down at her with disdain.

Yan Lingyi: “Useless. Don't drag me down.”

Lan Lingzhou: “...”

And so the two set off on a bumpy journey through the world of immortal cultivation.

*

As the Spear Immortal's heir, Yan Lingyi had never let anyone know that he possessed a life-bound sword. What he found difficult to admit was that it was a sword of marriage fate.

The person who drew the sword would be his destined love.

His path to immortality had always been smooth. He had never suffered a setback or taken a fall, until he turned eighteen:

First, he thoroughly offended the girl who had drawn the marriage sword.

Second, after she broke the Heartbound Bell, she happily ran to her refined and elegant senior brother, and he could only swallow his bitterness.

Driven to the brink, he used every trick he could think of, turning into a bitter, jealous demon and doing whatever it took to keep her from her senior brother.

○ One-on-one

○ The hero pursues the heroine after losing her! The hero falls for her through his own delusions.

○ A light ensemble cast. My take on immortal cultivation, with original worldbuilding in service of the plot. Not a story about a powerful female lead.

Premise: Like wild grass in a wildfire, she stands unyielding and never ceases.
