[Two male leads + cyberpunk cultivation + goofy, sweet comedy + equally matched leads + reborn + outwardly different from his true self, once the top receiver in the cultivation world + an AI top who seems to have a different face for everyone but is utterly devoted]
The elegant title of this story is Return of the Crane.
The number one cultivator in the realm was brought down by a dirty trick. Framed by others, he had no choice but to cripple his own cultivation to preserve his soul, and decided to make a comeback ten years later.
He thought that with half his cultivation still intact, he’d be able to crush all the disciples.
But ten years later, what awaited him was a cultivation world where people leveled up by solving programming problems.
C, Java, Python... What on earth were these things? He’d heard they were required for beginners. Weren’t beginner requirements supposed to be cultivation techniques and manuals?
Zhu Youning: “I entered the coffin and became a stranger to the world. Now I’m running all over the place, and no one ever waits for me.”
Luckily, he met a handsome guy who knew the ropes. The guy was expressionless but talkative, well-read but stiff. Still, a handsome guy who could solve problems was a good handsome guy.
But no one told him that the aloof ice-cold type would turn into a clingy, manipulative flirt before long.
And he had a whole repertoire of sweet nothings:
“Countless lines of code inside me can simulate a brain and a heartbeat. Look, they’re boiling for you.”
Was this really the same guy who could only say, “Hello, nice to meet you,” at first?
A receiver who seems refined and otherworldly but is actually vain, haughty, and loves wearing flashy clothes x an AI top who is aloof and talkative at first, then turns into a clingy flirt
(PS: It’s a short, goofy story of a little over a hundred thousand characters, with no technical jargon. It’s easy to understand, and it has a happy ending.)

Hahaha, it's quite funny. It's the first time I've seen something like this about programming. The setting is very novel, but there are too few and it's not enough to watch.
It's very interesting, the plot is good.
