Name: Even the Heartless Path Calls for Romance
Author: Mu Qianchi

Synopsis

[Check out my friend Xue Jixue's novel, Wen Duo with the Terrible Personality]

[The second volume's illustration event is live! (Even better than the first volume) (rubbing hands)]

-

As the pride of Lingyun Sect, Song Rongyu has recently run into three headaches.

1. He was drugged with a secret potion and ended up in bed with his rival.

2. His spiritual compatibility with his rival is a whopping ninety percent, and dual cultivation can greatly boost their cultivation.

3. He and his rival both practice the Ruthless Path.

Song Rongyu: Great. It's about as useful as a fish owning a bicycle :)

-

Song Rongyu's rival is Xie Huaiyan.

Xie Huaiyan, second in the entire sect, and defeated by Song Rongyu.

After the accidental drugging and the chaotic night that followed, Song Rongyu and his rival tacitly avoided each other.

In class, the two who used to fight tooth and nail were suddenly getting along.

Song Rongyu: He raised his hand first, so he can answer.

Xie Huaiyan lowered his hand and stared at Song Rongyu without blinking.

At the training grounds, the two who used to fight tooth and nail stopped fighting for once.

Song Rongyu: I'll admit he's stronger than me for now.

Xie Huaiyan sheathed his sword, still staring at Song Rongyu without blinking.

Song Rongyu grew uncomfortable under his gaze. "Stop looking at me!"

Xie Huaiyan kept looking.

Their classmates: ?

Something's not right here?

Then one day, they were trapped in an illusion. Their current cultivation wasn't enough to break out.

Known fact: They're extremely compatible, and dual cultivation can increase their cultivation.

Song Rongyu immediately stripped Xie Huaiyan. "Everything goes by my instructions!"

Xie Huaiyan: "?"

Song Rongyu: "If you don't want to move, I can be the one on top."

Xie Huaiyan: "."

-

After that, the two of them developed a bizarre harmony when it came to dual cultivation.

By day, they argued in class. At night, Song Rongyu would grab Xie Huaiyan with great bravado.

"Kiss me. I think I'm about to break through."

Xie Huaiyan: "Let me get inside first."

Song Rongyu was optimistic. Ruthless Path cultivators wouldn't break their vows as long as they didn't fall in love.

And how could he and Xie Huaiyan, sworn enemies, ever fall for each other?

In bed, Song Rongyu gently held Xie Huaiyan and asked uncertainly, "Could you ever fall for me?"

With the tips of his ears red, Xie Huaiyan said, "Never."

"...Xie Huaiyan, slow down, hey!"

[Secret Sect Gossip]

#Hey, do you know those two rivals who practice the Ruthless Path? They secretly dual cultivate!!!#

[Reader's Guide]

1. Lively, cheerful, socially fearless, oblivious-to-his-own-feelings bottom x seemingly cold and sharp-tongued top who fell in love at first sight and loves him to death, but denies it and is stubborn as a stone wall (Top, you should reflect on why this description is so long.)

2. A brainless, fluffy sweet romance. Both leads are each other's first! Both are each other's first! Both are each other's first! No emotional misunderstandings!

3. They're both extremely direct about everything, so they often end up arguing for no apparent reason (shrugs).

4. The bottom is a bit of a chatterbox, and never overthinks things. He says whatever's on his mind and never bottles anything up. He's not an annoying pest! Please don't project and say you'd be annoyed if you met someone like him in real life. You're not any of the characters in this novel, and people all behave differently, so you can't fully put yourself in their shoes. The bottom treats different people differently, too, so don't generalize. The same goes for the top. Anyway, hope you enjoy reading!

After his parents divorced and his mother remarried, Song Zhao gained a younger brother.

His younger brother adored him and followed him around every day, calling him "big brother" this and "big brother" that.

Song Zhao couldn't stand him and always told him to get lost.

At the graduation banquet after the college entrance exams, Song Zhao got dead drunk.

When he woke up, he found himself naked and aching all over, with someone lying beside him.

Song Zhao stiffly turned his head and saw a familiar yet unfamiliar face.

Xie Shilan propped his head up and greeted him. "Morning, big brother."

Song Zhao fled in a panic.

He applied to a university far from home, vowing never to see Xie Shilan again.

The day he came home to pick up his admission letter, he saw two identical letters.

And Xie Shilan, who had been waiting for him for a long time.
