[Two male leads + master and disciple + one-on-one pairing + both are each other’s one and only]
In his previous life, Mu Zhao was turned into a scabbard by his disciple, making headlines throughout the cultivation world: “Shocking! The aloof Immortal Venerable Mu Zhao has been made into a scabbard by his disciple, who keeps him close day and night!”
Now, Mu Zhao watches the future Demon Venerable on the auction stage, tears clinging to his lashes as he cries out miserably, “Immortal Master, save me!” Mu Zhao smiles.
In his last life, he spoke as little as possible, and this was where it got him.
This time, he’s decided to become a top scholar.
As everyone waits for him to generously open his purse, Mu Zhao lifts his spiritual tea, blows on it gently, and says softly to the stage below:
“You cry well.”
“Don’t cry next time.”
“I’m bidding on you because I need someone to wash my feet.”
“Your tears are salty and in the way.”
Rong Jin’s sobbing comes to an abrupt halt.
He looks up at Mu Zhao, and the dark flame in his eyes, destined one day to consume the Three Realms, flickers with genuine shock for the first time.
What Mu Zhao doesn’t know is this:
Inside the pitiful young body in the cage is the very mad Demon Venerable who has just burned up his divine soul for Mu Zhao and turned back time.
And so begins a tale of two people reborn.
