One-on-one pairing: Bai Muyun, a flirtatious and charming bottom, versus Xue Lingtian, a cold, chaste, gentle, avoidant-type master at first, who later throws caution to the wind, turns dark, and forces his love on him.
Master is the top, Master is the top, Master is the top.
It all began when Bai Muyun was captivated by Xue Lingtian's looks.
When Bai Muyun first transmigrated, one look at Xue Lingtian was enough for him to decide that Xue Lingtian would be his master.
After doggedly insisting, he finally became his disciple.
At first, he flirted with Xue Lingtian, but Xue Lingtian remained unmoved. He treated Bai Muyun like a child and used the “Parenting Manual” he'd written back in the marketplace to raise him.
When he realized Bai Muyun had improper feelings for him, he made him reflect, recite the Heart-Cleansing Mantra, and repent for his outrageous thoughts.
But when Bai Muyun accepted his fate, stopped trying to win Xue Lingtian over, and prepared to go down the mountain to reclaim his carefree life and hang out with demon-kind ruffians, Xue Lingtian instead closed in on him step by step.
“Yun'er, why are you running?”
“Yun'er, are you going to abandon even your master?”
“Yun'er, be good and come back.”
Something was wrong with his master. Alarm bells rang in Bai Muyun's head. His reason told him to run as fast as he could, but Xue Lingtian held him fast.
“Yun'er, you are not allowed to leave your master behind.”
He implanted a life-and-death pact in both their hearts. From then on, their lives were bound together, and they would never be apart again.
This story is a spin-off centered on one character's past from another work, featuring some of its supporting characters. It is also an authorial practice run at writing a master-disciple romance. Updates depend on whether the other work gets updated first; this one updates at a relaxed pace.
