I Became a Human Cauldron from the Start. Sect Master, Please Show Restraint!

(Cultivation, playing it safe, genius protagonist, character growth, no angst)

“Sect Master, do you know who I am now?”

“I do! The Human Empress, who united the realm, is keeping her throne empty for you. The wicked Demon Saintess is staying chaste for you, and the peerless sword immortal is ready to cleave open the gates of heaven with a single strike for you!”

“If you know who I am, why are you beating me?”

“Hmph, you two-timing little thief! Don't forget, besides all those identities, you're also my cultivation furnace! You're the one I'm beating!”
