A Straight Guy's Years of Cultivating Immortality in Another World

[Male leads + transmigrate bodily + straight man + cultivation + multiple love interests + narcissistic romance]

Winter, 1971. When Chen Zhou sees someone fall into a river, he jumps in to save them. He is sent down to the countryside for reeducation, but instead ends up transmigrating bodily to another world, where he finds himself in a living hell from the start.

Anxiously, he struggles to survive in this strange world, but trouble keeps coming his way. Just when he manages to build a revolutionary friendship with a young woman he likes, he learns she's actually a cross-dressing man!

Once he finds out the truth, he immediately packs his things and runs, reminding himself never to fall for the same trick twice.

Who could have guessed that this world is full of traps? There's no way to avoid them!

Yan Qing is the “Holy Maiden” of the Immortal Court. At first, he takes Chen Zhou in only because he wants to obtain the one-of-a-kind Glazed Heart. He never expected his feigned affection to turn real.

He thought he could keep Chen Zhou under his control, only to realize Chen Zhou had never been in his grasp.

Legend has it that the first god born between Heaven and Earth possessed a flawless heart, clear as glass.

(Note: This is a slow-burn story. The protagonist starts out as an ordinary person and can't mow down everyone in his path. The era he lives in is also fairly simple and earnest, so he has a certain sense of morality.)
