[Ne Zha] I Borrowed the Third Prince to Survive a Trial of Love

Yuan Chu remembered. It had been more than three hundred years since she transmigrated into this mythic ancient world, where gods and demons were everywhere. It had taken only three hundred years to go from an immortal-cultivation prodigy miles ahead of the rest to a repeat student in the immortal realm, still unable to overcome her tribulation of love. Over the years, she had no idea how many jade bricks in the Matchmaker’s temple had been bought with her bribes. Matchmaker: “I have a plan!” He pointed at the close friend who had once failed her tribulation case by case, cutting out his bones to return them to his father. He was also the only person she had ever cared about. “I think he might be the key to getting past this love tribulation. Give it a try.” Yuan Chu stared at him in shock. “Do you know who he is?!” “Of course I do. Marshal of the Central Altar, Heaven’s Demon-Quelling God, the Third Prince of the Li family.” The Matchmaker stroked his beard, his expression grave. “Try him!” * Yuan Chu gave it a try. As long as you’re brave enough, you can use Nezha to overcome your love tribulation. Across several lifetimes, with many deaths and resurrections along the way, she finally overcame the tribulation. When she died during the tribulation, the sight of the handsome young man looking utterly lost made her heart ache for a few seconds. Now that the tribulation was over, she could finally ascend as a true immortal. Dressed in her immortal robes, Yuan Chu walked out of the Matchmaker’s residence and ran straight into the object of her love tribulation. The young man stared fixedly at her, his expression unusually grim. The Red Armillary Sash bound her tightly. “For a hundred years, I searched heaven and earth for your soul to bring you back to life, but I couldn’t find you anywhere.” “, You used me to overcome your tribulation?” Before you read: 1. A chaotic mix of myths and folk traditions. Please don’t scrutinize it for accuracy. 2. My own take on the setting. A sweet romance(?) story, probably. 3. They’re just friends as children. The romance only develops once they’re adults! Theme: Keep up your diligent cultivation and face your true feelings honestly
