[Two male leads + younger gong + farming + slow burn + healing warning]
Mei Shuying, a mountain god, arrived in a world of cultivation. After living in a small village for several centuries, he picked up the first cultivator he had ever seen.
Later, something called the System bound itself to him and told him that the cultivator he had saved would one day become a renowned Immortal Venerable. But the Immortal Venerable was cold and ruthless, had slaughtered countless people, regarded all living beings as mere grass, and had blood on his hands.
The cultivators here were all selfish, calculating opportunists, utterly lacking the qualities expected of anyone aspiring to become a god. So the System chose Mei Shuying to change this world.
Mei Shuying: “I understand what you’re saying, but I’m just a lowly mountain god, and not even a proper one yet.”
System: “You’re right, but this is your mission.”
Mei Shuying: “...”
As a child, the future Immortal Venerable was like a prickly little hedgehog. It took Mei Shuying a long time to open his heart. He had meant to teach him to be kind, but never expected to get entangled himself.
The Immortal Venerable did become a better person, but his emotions seemed to grow even more unstable. He would burst into tears at the slightest thing and need someone to comfort him. If Mei Shuying showed even the slightest desire to leave, he would immediately go mad, and he would destroy without hesitation anything that posed a threat to Mei Shuying.
There was nothing Mei Shuying could do but keep him by his side, soothing and guiding him.
But although the Immortal Venerable learned everything else quickly, he simply couldn’t learn to control his emotions. Mei Shuying always thought he lacked a sense of security, until one day he overheard the Immortal Venerable talking to someone else and learned that this was how he kept Mei Shuying from leaving.
Mei Shuying: “...”
Fuguang: “QAQ”
