The Young Dragon Prodigy's Dao Companion Wants a Divorce

Lian Qing has been poisoned by a strange toxin. To stay alive, he needs to cultivate together with a partner who has a pure yang constitution. One day, Lian Qing wakes up to find that his partner has become the young man he once was. At the time, his young partner has none of his usual refined demeanor. Wearing coarse hemp clothes and chewing on a blade of grass, he looks at Lian Qing with a defiant raised brow. “What are you looking at? Want a beating?” Lian Qing: “?” The poison happens to flare up, and Lian Qing has no choice but to drag his young partner into detoxifying him. The boy resists with all his might, but after getting smacked twice, he finally gives in. 1 Lian Qing teaches his young partner techniques and spells. The boy is full of ambition. “One day, I'm going to storm Qingyang Sect and challenge the number-one immortal under heaven. We'll see whose sword is faster.” The number-one immortal under heaven, Lian Qing: “?” Lian Qing: “Do you hate him?” The boy answers confidently, “Of course. Everyone calls him the little martial uncle who's their white moonlight, cold and aloof, with hordes of admirers. He's nothing but a fraud chasing fame.” 2 Lian Qing returns to the present. Though his partner comes from the ranks of the rogue cultivators, he is as elegant as a jade tree, a gentleman like polished jade. Aside from the days when Lian Qing needs to detoxify, the two treat each other with courtesy, and things are going all right. But now Lian Qing isn't so sure. He begins looking for other ways to detoxify himself. When his partner finds out, he comes to ask him about it. Lian Qing says, “I know you and my partner had no choice in the matter. If you want a divorce, that's fine too.” “???” His usually composed partner's expression crumbles, and he is horrified. I didn't! I never did! Which bastard set me up? *The younger Chu and the older Chu are the same person. Coming soon: I'm Destined to Be the Protagonist Bai Wangs​​hu is approached by the System and asked to help the protagonist obtain opportunities and complete the plot. After hearing the System explain, he thinks this could work. “The protagonist gets pretty good treatment.” “Can't I be the protagonist instead?” System: “...?” “Is it that I can't beat the villain, or that I can't charm the supporting characters?” “Show me the book.” Bai Wangs​​hu: “Who did you say was the protagonist again?” The System panics. “I didn't! I never did! I didn't say anything!” “...Xuan Qing.” Bai Wangs​​hu: “So if I push him out, I can be the protagonist, right?” The System is in despair. 1 When they encounter an opportunity, Bai Wangs​​hu approaches the protagonist holding a treasure and says, “Hey, handsome, I really like that. Give it to me, will you~” “But you're the illustrious senior disciple with a noble heart and grand ambitions.” Bai Wangs​​hu's lingering gaze caresses the protagonist's face. His voice is soft, circling his ear. “Everyone else can do it. Why can't I?” The protagonist's lashes flutter. He doesn't dare look at him. “...If you want it, it's yours.” Bai Wangs​​hu: “See? He wants to give it to me.” System: ...dead from anger. What a spineless protagonist! 2 Due to the irresistible force of the plot, the protagonist still ends up with the spirit pill. Bai Wangs​​hu draws the spirit pill back out of the protagonist's mouth and gazes at him. “I said it was mine. Don't steal it, okay?” The protagonist's cheeks flush red, and he looks terribly apologetic. “What if I find you something even better?” Bai Wangs​​hu hooks a finger under the protagonist's chin, smiling. “I only like the one you swallowed. How are you planning to repay me?” 3 Gradually, more and more people gather around Bai Wangs​​hu, each presenting him with their most precious treasures. Everyone says the senior disciple of Tianyi Sect is the foremost figure in the immortal sects, as pure and noble as the bright moon. But Xuan Qing knows he isn't so above reproach. On the night Bai Wangs​​hu is to become engaged, Xuan Qing sits alone on Unrepentant Cliff all night. Finally, he swallows the pill everyone longs for, wraps an arm around Bai Wangs​​hu's waist, and speaks with calm clarity. “...Dual cultivation. Dual cultivation can draw out the power of the divine pill inside me.” Theme: Believe that true affection and true love exist in this world. Stay strong and persevere; strive and forge ahead.
