Master, Don't Die. Your Disciple Shares Your Endless Love and Hate

[Two male leads + younger disciple and older master + both reborn + one-on-one, both pure + sweet happy ending]

[A sickly but not weak, seemingly proper fox immortal master who is the uke, and a restrained but scheming white snake disciple who acts obedient and is the seme]

Liu Shixu's Daoist heart is shattered.

He cannot understand why his eldest disciple, whom he raised with his own hands, would have such feelings for him.

Was his teaching style wrong? Or was he simply too beautiful?

Unable to figure it out... Liu Shixu decides to hide, even faking his death to escape.

But his eldest disciple always manages to find him, then puts on a pitiful act and sobs.

"Does Master not want me anymore? I only have you, Master. You know that."

Damn it, he's gone soft again.

But when the lightning of ascension strikes, Liu Shixu's first thought is that he can finally escape to the heavens.

His second thought is... there is no second thought, because he is struck dead.

When he opens his eyes again, he has returned to the time when he first took on a disciple.

Even worse. Liu Shixu swears that this time he will teach his eldest disciple strictly and care for him, turning him into a champion of respecting his master and revitalizing the cultivation world.

But...

Liu Shixu watches a certain snake burrow its head into his arms and finally snaps. "Pei Yanqiu! Where's the nerve you had when you tied me up in the warm pavilion?!"

Pei Yanqiu nestles pitifully against his master's neck, his gaze gradually darkening. "Master, your fox tail is showing."

"..."

Fine, you win. I surrender. I like you too, all right!
