Summary
Synopsis:
An Innocent-Looking Author with a Dark Side, Transmigrated into Her Own Book × An Unattainable Female lead Who Cultivates the Heartless Dao
#The female lead I wrote is always trying to kill me to prove her Dao
As an outer disciple of the Sword Sect, Qin Zhiyue admired the sect’s swordsmanship prodigy, its senior sister, just as everyone else did when she regained her memories from before she entered the book.
But Senior Sister possessed an otherworldly beauty and extraordinary talent. She was the most unattainable woman in the cultivation world. If an accident had not bound them together with a love gu, Qin Zhiyue probably would never have approached her in her entire life.
Yet this unattainable woman descended from her pedestal and confessed her feelings to Qin Zhiyue. She was so sincere and moving, offering everything she could to show she meant it, all for the title of Dao companion.
Qin Zhiyue was so frightened that she dropped to her knees and, weeping bitterly… refused. No one knew better than she did what kind of cold-blooded monster Xiao Weimian really was. After all, Qin Zhiyue had written her herself…
*
Xiao Weimian was a talent the Sword Sect had not seen in ten thousand years, the youngest Golden Core cultivator in the cultivation world.
But no one knew that she cultivated the Heartless Dao, a path the world could not accept.
And Qin Zhiyue was the stepping stone Xiao Weimian had chosen to prove her Dao—obedient, weak, and apparently easy to kill.
She had never imagined Qin Zhiyue would refuse. Becoming her Dao companion could only benefit Qin Zhiyue, so why would she turn her down?
*
On the day they turned their swords against each other, Xiao Weimian did not dodge. She merely let the sword in Qin Zhiyue’s hand sink deeper. Pain spread into her very bones, as though her heart had been torn apart along with them.
She suddenly remembered how much she had once hated Qin Zhiyue—hated that the bright moon hung high yet cast no light on her alone; hated that her creator had given her a fate without showing her any mercy; hated…
But when she saw that same hatred surging in Qin Zhiyue’s eyes, she finally understood:
What she had hated all along was simply the thought that Qin Zhiyue did not seem to love her.
In the cultivation world, there are countless paths, but none is purer or more unyielding than the Way of the Heartless Sword. Once one begins cultivating it, there is no turning back.
Reading Notes:
- One-on-one romance; neither lead has had a previous romantic or sexual partner; happy ending
- A somewhat bloody story of two people who love and fight each other
- The female lead is not a good person in the conventional sense
