【Two male leads, master and disciple, System, cultivation, one-on-one, both pure】
Darkened, unhinged Demon Venerable gong × seemingly aloof but actually laid-back beauty shizun shou
Deep master-disciple affection at first, forced love later; one-on-one, both pure
“Shizun, you taught me to respect my elders. Why are you the one running away now?”
Xuan Qingshuang wakes up to find that he has become the villainous master in a cultivation novel. The System tells him: 【Complete the death-seeking plot, and you can go home with a million】.
So
He takes Chu Linyuan as his disciple, teaches him swordsmanship, protects him, and makes the boy give him his whole heart.
He brews medicine for him with his own hands, takes calamities in his place, and holds him close on stormy nights, saying, “Don't be afraid.”
Then... just when Chu Linyuan depends on him most, he cripples his cultivation, casts him out of the sect, and sneers down at him: “You're nothing but an illegitimate wretch. You think you deserve to be my disciple?”
“Shizun, you taught me how to love, but not how to let go.”
Chu Linyuan drags his bloodied body back to the Demon Realm, awakens his bloodline, and becomes the new Demon Venerable.
When they meet again, Xuan Qingshuang is pinned to a cold jade bed, his wrists bound with spirit-locking chains. His once-gentle disciple grips his chin, eyes bloodshot: “Didn't Shizun say... you'd never leave me?”
The System sounds the alarm frantically: Host! Your character is breaking down! The plot has gone off course! He's going to force you to love him!
Xuan Qingshuang: “...Is it too late to run?”
“Too late.”
“Shizun, you taught me that when you want something, you should do whatever it takes to take it for yourself.”
