After Failing to Break Off the Engagement, I Took the Chosen One on a Frenzy Through the Cultivation World

After transmigrating into a book, Sang Luo has several genius senior brothers skilled in alchemy and talismans, a junior brother who's a sword prodigy, a ridiculously powerful Sword Sovereign for a master, and an uncle who's the richest man around. She's got everyone's-favorite treatment from the start, only to be told she's the villainess who gets dumped in the original story.

System: [Just follow the plot to the end, and I'll let you fake your death and go home!]

To avoid dying in an undignified way, Sang Luo throws herself into cultivation, forming her core before the engagement-breakup date and waiting for the day she'll face the male lead, the Chosen One.

But who could have guessed that the Chosen One would give up on life!

As the tides of fate turn, Sang Luo shows up to provoke him, hurling insults and waiting for the male lead to rise up and slap her with a divorce letter.

“Break off the engagement? Not a chance. I'd rather die than do that!”

System: [Warning! Warning! Signs of the Chosen One giving up detected.]

Sang Luo fumes: “How can you sleep at a time like this? How can you just lie around like that?!”

Reborn, he decides that cultivating is utterly pointless and gives up on everything.

But soon after he starts lazing around, his fiancée, who looked down on him in his previous life, starts pushing him to cultivate nonstop.

The Chosen One, Give-Up Edition, Chu Yanshu slowly types a question mark above his head: “?”
