Slay the Gods: Far Away, the Abyss

[White-haired, guiding seme and naive, slow-to-warm, healing uke; older man] [Sequel to Gu Qi'an and Lin Qiye; 1v1, both pure, two male leads (please don't read if that's not your thing); OOC warning] I'm sorry I didn't tell their story in full. I'll briefly recap what happened earlier and continue from there. Some plot points and names may change, but it won't affect your reading experience. “Gu Qi'an, so you had an ulterior motive from the very beginning, and I was just one part of your plan, right?” “...Yes.” “I never said you could only be the one protected. You're exceptional, better than anyone else. I don't protect and support you because I want you to become a parasitic vine clinging to me. I want you to grow into a towering tree of your own, able to stand tall even when you don't need me.” “Can love... make someone sick?” “Happy love can't, but painful love can...” The feeling came from nowhere, but once it began, it couldn't be stopped. A spark had already grown into a wildfire. Can true feelings really exist amid tangled interests? As if things weren't bad enough, another mysterious organization, the Wasteland, came to this world along with Gu Qi'an, changing the situation once again. See how Gu Qi'an faces his own heart, guides Lin Qiye step by step, and ultimately finds his happy ending. Even if you descend into the abyss, a future stretching a thousand miles still awaits. Additional arcs have been added. [Notes for what's next: Original story with two male leads, healing old regrets and opening a new chapter, a winding road to a happy ending. Jialan will find a different destiny. Suggestions are welcome.] If it's not your thing, feel free to leave. Different strokes for different folks. I'm not good at writing blurbs, so please head straight to the story!
