"2nd princess, would you like to view the bloom of a 9,000 ice-flower?"
"Sister, you're so pretty! You should get together with my uncle! That's my uncle!"
"S-sorry, my painting fell right towards you!"
...
Veins started bulging on her forehead.
For some reason, today people were constantly offering her things, accidentally appearing for no reason, and trying to get her attention.
Finally tired of this constant annoyance, she held the collar of the 30th man who kept bothering her.
"Why do all of you keep appearing one by one!? If you dare lie to me, do you believe that I won't cut you up, throw you body to the seven seas, and make sure you never enter reincarnation!?"
Her eyes glared with strong killing intent.
"2-2nd princess, what did I do wrong?"
"It's not what you did wrong, but its what all of you did wrong! Now answer me this. Zhong gen, Feng Si, Chen Qilin, etc. etc."
She remembered every face that appeared and recited them to him, her rage growing strong with each passing second.
"Ah..." Realization starts dawning on him as these names were getting to become extremely familiar.
"Say it!"
"M-my guess is...that we're all bachelors?" His eyes twitched while saying it.
"...." Her eyes glared with killing intent as she let go of the collar. Everything clicked inside her head. "Marriage god!"
...
Back in present time as she ties him up with a immortal rope.
"2nd princess! If you want to kill someone, go kill-I mean go talk to the Celestial Emperor. He was the one who made me do this! I told him not to, but he forced me!"
The Celestial Emperor in his room cursed.
"You got caught and want to drag me down with you!? How evil!"
He announced in a loud voice for everyone to hear.
"From today on, I will cultivate in seclusion for 100 years. Within these 100 years, no one can visit me."
...
the 2nd princess and Mao Cai looked up to the sky as they heard his voice.
As expected of the Celestial Emperor! His scheme is truly profound.
The 2nd princess turned back her attention to Mao Cai. A sword appearing in her hand.

"w-w-wait, we can talk this through! No need for sharp weapons!"
"Will you keep writing your love story, or will you lose your hand? You can only pick one!"
Shing~
The sword slowly came out of it's sheath.
Holy shit! Aren't you too decisive?!
"I'll give it to you! I'll give it to you!"
Mao Cai took out the name plate along with the red hair currently tied to it.
"Here!"
He threw it but as he threw it, the other end of the hair got trapped in his bracelet.
"Are you not going to give me it!?"
Damn it! Can't you see it's stuck!?
"3, 2, 1-"
She struck with her sword.
"Holy shit! You're serious!?"
Mao Cai jumped around while still being tied up.
"Yi-er, kick me!"
"Okay!" He smiled enthusiastically.
"You little shit! Why do you sound so happy–"
He felt a powerful force hit his butt.
"I'LL REMember this!!!!"
As his voice faded off into the distance, Xue Chuntao glared at Yi'er. Then she chased after him.
...
"Damn it! If it only wasn't for this damn rope! It doesn't even allow me to use my immortal qi!"
As he jumped around to escape, other immortals who were passing by stared and looked.
"Mao Cai you-"
"Scram!"
He saw several immortals and fairies covering their mouths to not laugh.
Laugh while you can! When I get back, I'll make sure all of you fall in love with a frog!
Mao Cai begrudgingly jumps as fast as he could like a frog.
Finally he looked around and could see the pool to the mortal world.
He planned to jump into it, but a servant stopped him.
"Sir, you can only go to the mortal realm if you drink the "Forgetting soup" or have a token from the Celestial Emperor."
"Gah! damn it!" He hesitated. Then turned to a servant who was overseeing the pool. "Let me drink!"
He gulped down the soup as fast as he could.
"Stop!" Xue Chuntao yelled out causing him to choke on the soup.
"cough* Cough* This should be good right!?"
The servant nods, and Mao Cai jumps straight into the pool.
Xue Chuntao quickened her pace.
"2nd princess you-"
She glared at him.
"...Have a good trip."
"Hmph." She still drank the soup regardless. "Rules are rules."
"Uhm, princess, how about we just send immortal soldier to catch him? When you get him, you can beat him up!"
"When have I, Xue Chuntao relied on others? I'll beat Mao Cai even in the mortal realm!"
Then she decisively jumped in.
...
A youth around the age of 16 sat down while meditating. He looked up to the sky and felt melancholic.
"Sigh, why can I not cultivate? What sin have I, Mao Cai committed?" He raised his hands and on his wrist was a bracelet tied with a red string of sorts.
He shakes his head and suddenly a bag crashed into him, making him fall over.
"Senior brother! Have a peach!"
"...Junior sister, did you steal master's peaches again?"
"Aigh~ Don't worry about the small details." She looks at him contemplating. "Why can't senior brother cultivate?"
"Sigh~ Master said, in my last life I incurred the wrath of the Celestial Emperor which made me unable to cultivate. How can I, a person with integrity do such a thing?"
"Senior brother, just marry me, I'll take care of you." She patted his shoulder causing his smile to twitch.
"...I rather cultivate for immortality. I don't believe that I won't be able to cultivate after attaining merit! When I save thousands of people, maybe then my path to enlightenment will open!"
"Hmm! I believe in senior brother!"
"What are you guys talking about?"
An ice cold voice rang out causing Mao Cai to flinch uncontrollably. He swiftly hid behind his junior sister.
"S-Senior Sister, how are you?" Mao Cai spoke while his teeth clattered.
His senior sister wore a jade mask, but her beauty couldn't be hidden.
"Junior brother, I've just comprehended a Sword slash, how about helping me to-"
"Thank you sister, but I-"
"Senior sister, are you bulling senior brother again?"
She smiled, "Junior sister, who stole the peaches that master grew?"
"Eum..." She slowly looks back at Mao Cai with guilt and said dejectedly, "I'll leave you guys to it."
"Junior sister!? Weren't you going to take care of me!?"
"But we aren't married?" She said innocently.
He was dumbfounded. His junior sister betrayed him!
"Junior brother, come, let me see the results of your training."
He sighed and gave up.
I need to ascend as quickly as possible so that senior sister will stop using me as a sandbag...Heavens, just what did I do in my past life to deserve such a fate!
