Bai Yu transmigrates, and from the start it’s hell mode: he has the “delicious Tang Monk flesh of the cultivation world” physique, his villainous master has set his sights on him to seize his body, the entire sect is hunting him down, and in the end, Gu An, the aloof senior brother who had nothing to do with him in his previous life, sends him flying with an arrow. Well, not quite: he sends him off a cliff.
Reborn, Bai Yu tears up the script! Looking for a master? He’s got to find the biggest golden thigh around! Chen An, the Yuanxi Sect’s number-one shirker, the Red Dust Sword Immortal: you’re the one!
“Master! Take me in! I eat little, work hard, and I can even cheer you on!”
Chen An: “…Take a disciple? What a hassle. Unless you’ll drink with me. Not that I mean anything by it.”

Gu An draws his sword in an instant, his gaze icy. “Let him go!” Inside, he’s thinking: I didn’t come back reborn just to watch you steal him!
Bai Yu, trembling between them: “W-wait! Isn’t the plot supposed to…”
