Synopsis
After a lifetime of selfless healing under a restrictive system, Xiao Muxun is reborn with a new "heartthrob" system that encourages self-interest over sacrifice. However, he discovers that the powerful figures he once saved have also returned to their past lives, now desperate to protect him from any hardship. This novel blends the "White Moonlight" trope with a system-driven cultivation setting, reading like a classic pampering romance. It is ideal for readers who enjoy lighthearted BL dynamics and the irony of a character trying to escape a saintly reputation only to be adored more. Those seeking a gritty, high-stakes cultivation plot or complex political intrigue should skip it. The story moves quickly through its 100 chapters, focusing on interpersonal dynamics rather than heavy magic. Its standout quality is the comedic reversal of the protagonist's role from selfless healer to the most coveted person in the cultivation world.

Editorial Review
This completed BL novel offers a concise and satisfying execution of the rebirth trope. Its primary strength lies in the mutual rebirth premise, which creates immediate emotional tension and allows the characters to bypass the typical slow-burn phase of relationship building. The dynamic between Xiao Muxun and the demon king Xie Ci provides a stable core for the plot. However, the brevity of the work is also a weakness; with only 100 chapters, the world-building is minimal and some character arcs may feel underdeveloped compared to sprawling xianxia epics. The low-magic approach keeps the focus on the romance, but it may leave readers wanting more depth in the cultivation elements. Overall, it is a focused, efficient read that delivers on its promises without overstaying its welcome.
