A story with two male leads. If that's not your thing, don't read! Cold beauty (bottom) VS arrogant genius (top)
Xie Yuyun is the legitimate eldest son of the Xie family in the capital, and the city's most famous laughingstock: born with a crippled spiritual root, he hasn't dared show his face in public for two hundred years. Everyone says the Xie family is finished, their heir a lost cause.
What no one knows is that on the day he was born, a reclusive master took him away. No one in the capital knows what he went through or where he went during those two hundred years.
Two hundred years later, he returned. Dressed in moon-white robes and wearing a white jade lotus hairpin, he walked quietly down the main street, unrecognized by everyone.
He only wanted to come home and see his parents.
But someone just wouldn't leave him in peace.
Feng Lanjing, the capital's most lawless prodigy, is a personal disciple of the Qingyun Sect, with a lightning spiritual root and the bloodline of a hidden family. He has everything in life, except that he's never met anyone like Xie Yuyun. Though he can't sense a trace of spiritual energy from him, Xie Yuyun remains unruffled under his pressure. Though he keeps everyone at arm's length, when he serves tea, he turns the cup so the rim won't burn your hand.
"Who exactly are you?" Feng Lanjing leaned over to ask.
Xie Yuyun looked up at him. His eyes were as cool as a thousand-year-old frozen lake, and something seemed to lie beneath the surface, beyond Feng Lanjing's grasp.
"Xie Yuyun." He lowered his head and turned a page. "You can leave now."
Feng Lanjing didn't leave.
He sat down opposite him and poured himself a cup of tea. He had never feared anything in his life, but this person was the one exception. He wanted to figure him out.
