TSFLIP Chapter 177

“Current points: 89.”

In the white space, Fengguang exhaled a sigh of relief upon hearing the system’s voice, patting her chest with lingering anxiety. “I feel like I was the one being wooed this time.”

Ou Xun’s methods to keep her had been extreme, but… while his actions were intense, it would be a lie to say she wasn’t moved by a man willing to risk his life for her.

The system spoke coldly, “Script selection initiated.”

“Wait, hold on, System!” Fengguang protested, noticing the script floating around her. “I haven’t even called to start yet!”

Suddenly, a pulse of electricity flashed through her mind. Any residual attachment she felt toward Ou Xun dissolved, leaving her to think of him as she would a stranger, utterly unimportant.

Fengguang understood that this was the system erasing her emotions. But it was strange—usually, the system would at least give her a heads-up before tampering with her emotions. Just like this time with the script selection; it had decided to start it without asking.

Though puzzled, she knew she still had a mission to complete. And with 89 points, she was close to reaching 100. Fengguang casually pulled a book, its title slowly appearing before her eyes: The Poisoned Healer: The Persistent Sect Leader.

This was a martial arts tale. The female protagonist, Guan Yueyue, was originally from the modern world and, through a twist of fate, ended up as an orphan in this new world. Fortunately, the revered Sage of Medicine and Poison adopted her and taught her both arts. At sixteen, she secretly left the valley to explore the martial world, meeting a host of charming men. Most importantly, she met the male lead, Nangong Li, the Demon Sect Leader.

Excited, Fengguang thought about her assigned role—the eldest daughter of Zhejian Tower, a family with a noble reputation. Her fiancé was none other than Yi Wushang, the Alliance Leader of the martial world. Finally, a role where she wasn’t the male lead’s fiancée! But before she could enjoy this relief, she finished absorbing the story’s full plot and was speechless.

It turned out the Alliance Leader and the Demon Sect Leader were the same person. And the second male lead? Guan Yueyue’s teacher.

What a setup!

Fengguang nearly threw the book but calmed herself, reasoning it was routine for her to end up as the male lead’s fiancée anyway. Steadying herself, she said, “Let the mission begin.”

The wealthy Jiangnan region, known for its beautiful rivers and lakes, was also famous for producing beauty. If you asked the people of Jiangnan who the most renowned beauty was, they would say it was the eldest daughter of Zhejian Tower. And if you asked who was the hardest to please, they would also tell you it was the eldest daughter of Zhejian Tower.

What was Zhejian Tower?

Zhejian Tower had been part of the martial world for over a century, renowned for forging powerful weapons. To make a name for yourself in the martial world, seventy percent relied on skill, and thirty percent on weaponry. In a life-or-death duel, victory or defeat could hinge on your weapon. Imagine blocking an opponent’s blow only for your weapon to break, leaving you defenseless. A loss like that would be painfully unfair, wouldn’t it?

So, everyone in the martial world dreamed of possessing a godly weapon, and the finest ones came from Zhejian Tower in Jiangnan. Known as the arms dealer to the martial world, Zhejian Tower enjoyed unmatched respect—who would dare offend the ones who supplied such powerful weapons?

Just as Zhejian Tower was famous, so was its eldest daughter. The Tower Master Xia Chao had only one daughter, and he pampered her beyond measure. Indeed, the eldest daughter of Zhejian Tower, Xia Fengguang, was infamous for being wild and unruly.
