It was said that Xu Chengbi, the Crown Prince of the Demon Clan, was hideously ugly. Whenever he lost control, he would abduct beautiful people he disliked and subject them to cruel torture. His actions were so vicious that they shocked and outraged everyone.
In order to rid the world of this menace, Hua Yao, the most beautiful cultivator in the cultivation world and an elder of Lingxiao Pavilion, sacrificed more than half of his cultivation. Despite his frail and broken body, he managed to seal Xu Chengbi within the forbidden grounds of Lingxiao Pavilion for over a hundred years.
During those hundred years, no matter what methods Xu Chengbi used, he could never escape. Enraged, he forcibly broke through a cultivation bottleneck, drawing down nine heavenly lightning tribulations.
And then.
He was blasted into ashes by the lightning.
When Hua Yao rushed to the scene, all he saw was a dusty figure sitting beneath a tree. The heavenly lightning had completely destroyed his spiritual consciousness, stripped away all his cultivation, and erased the vicious aura he once possessed. His eyes were clear and innocent as he looked at Hua Yao and asked:
“Who are you?”
Hua Yao: “?”
Having inexplicably transmigrated into a novel, Xu Chengbi was determined to clear the original owner’s notorious reputation. Reluctantly, he joined Lingxiao Pavilion as a disciple and vowed to improve his cultivation, perform good deeds every day, redeem his name, and make the entire cultivation world admire his brilliance and heroic greatness.
At first, Xu Chengbi’s attitude toward his master was:
“Where did this white lotus come from? And he’s worthy of being my master?”
(cold sneer)
Later, when rumors spread that he secretly harbored feelings for his master, Xu Chengbi became so furious that he pointed at the sky and swore:
“I absolutely don’t like him. I’m just his disciple…”
(then he secretly glanced at his master’s breathtaking beauty and suffered a direct critical hit)
Eventually, when he heard rumors claiming that Hua Yao had improper feelings for his own disciple, Xu Chengbi first coaxed his master away with gentle words. The moment Hua Yao was gone, he turned around looking ready to kill and nearly twisted the rumor-monger’s head off.
“I was the one who fell for him first. Got a problem with that?”
Xu Chengbi originally wanted nothing more than to cultivate in peace. However, fragments of the original Xu Chengbi’s soul constantly disturbed his Dao heart from within. Before he realized it, he had developed feelings for Hua Yao, the master who cultivated the Path of Emotionlessness. Once desire took root, it became impossible to remove.
Many years later, Hua Yao’s hands and feet were bound in iron chains. Disheveled and exhausted, he was imprisoned deep within a forbidden area of the Demon Realm.
Before him stood his rebellious disciple, whose strikingly beautiful features carried a dangerously seductive charm. With complete disregard for restraint, the disciple lifted Hua Yao’s chin with his fingertips.
Hua Yao’s cold and detached face was as frosty as snow. Embarrassed and distressed, he turned his head away to avoid the touch and quietly uttered two words:
“Impudent.”
“Do you remember the oath you swore back then?”
“What oath? I’ve forgotten.”
Pretending to be innocent, Xu Chengbi lowered his gaze toward the untouchable beauty he had dragged down from his pedestal. He brushed Hua Yao’s sweat-damp hair behind his ear, the smile on his lips growing increasingly obvious.
“Master”
“Your disciple is going to do something even more impudent.”
“Would Master like to find out what that is?”
