Chen Zheng was abducted by an old Daoist from Mount Kunlun at the age of five. After thirteen years of cultivation, he reached the middle stage of Foundation Establishment at eighteen.
His master said, “I have nothing left to teach you. Go down the mountain.”
Chen Zheng asked, “Where to?”
His master replied, “Go home and find your parents. Maybe find yourself a sweetheart while you're at it. It's all part of experiencing the mortal world.”
Chen Zheng said, “...What's love?”
His master said, “...”
And so, the aloof Immortal Venerable Chen Zheng descended the mountain.
On the first day, he casually rescued the heiress of a wealthy family from her pursuers.
On the second day, she came to his door. “Benefactor, teach me how to cultivate!”
On the third day, Chen Zheng watched as the woman who had reached Qi Refining in just three days chased after him, calling him Master, and fell into deep thought.
Weren't ordinary people supposed to have dull aptitude?
Wasn't experiencing the mortal world supposed to be relaxing?
How is this woman more obsessed with self-improvement than I am???
