[Villainous, sweet-on-the-surface, obsessive, unhinged bottom Shen Ji x aloof, kindhearted, beloved-by-all top Wen Zhixu]
[Both are powerful, devoted to each other, the bottom spoils the top, the bottom pursues the top, everyone-loves-him top, beautiful top, author is a bit of a top enthusiast]
On the brink of death, Shen Ji was hanging by a thread when Wen Zhixu, dressed in flowing white robes, casually saved his life.
It was merely an insignificant act of kindness during Wen Zhixu's journey down the mountain. He promptly forgot all about it.
But that fleeting glimpse left an obsession etched into Shen Ji's heart and bones. He worshipped Wen Zhixu as a deity who belonged to him alone.
For years afterward, he searched across the land. Only when he happened upon a portrait did he learn that his savior was the celebrated chief disciple of Linheng Immortal Palace.
Shen Ji staked everything and endured countless hardships to join the sect.
In front of others, he was a diligent, reserved junior disciple, devoted to cultivating the Dao.
And to Wen Zhixu, he was always the same respectful boy who looked up to him.
It wasn't until the cage was locked and his immortal robes were stained that Wen Zhixu suddenly glimpsed the real Shen Ji, hidden beneath his gentle exterior.
Beneath that pious adoration lay a frenzied possessiveness.
Shen Ji gazed at the banished immortal in the cage, his eyes brimming with a love both scorching and shattered. In the end, he had dragged this bright moon down to earth.
"Wen Zhixu, you can only belong to me."
