Yan Lingxiu, a hero from a classic cultivation novel who once ruled the world, transmigrates one day into the body of a low-status cauldron, fit for anyone to toy with.
With no spiritual roots or talent, he can only improve his cultivation through dual cultivation.
Yan Lingxiu clenches his fist: Never look down on a young man just because he's poor.
As the protagonist of a cultivation novel, Yan Lingxiu knows how to bend without breaking.
Before he can be auctioned off, he does everything he can to ingratiate himself with a rich fool and get under his protection.
The fool is gullible and loaded. He hands over spirit stones and magic treasures without hesitation, and gets Yan Lingxiu whatever he wants. There's only one problem:
The fool has an insatiable appetite for sex.
After a night together, Yan Lingxiu's legs are so weak he can't stand. He clenches his fists: It's just another obstacle on the road to immortality. He doesn't care.
The rich fool clings to him for sex every night.
Day after day, Yan Lingxiu keeps a cold expression as he kills every disposable nobody who looks down on him, every villain who covets his body, and every old bastard who tries to control him.
He becomes the ruler of a realm, despite being a cauldron.
No one dares bring up his origins in front of him anymore. The merchant guild that once put him up for auction has long since become a ruin, vanished into history.
Only one stain from his past remains unresolved.
The rich fool, also known as Xie Bingyu, was once the young lord of the demon race.
Xie Bingyu's soul has long since scattered.
But Yan Lingxiu accidentally discovers that he isn't quite dead. He's been reborn as a mixed-blood demon slave.
He brings the lowly demon slave home and keeps him by his side.

When Xie Bingyu is taken in by the Immortal Venerable, he thinks he's received the highest honor.
Only later does he learn that his previous life had a bitter history with the Immortal Venerable.
The Immortal Venerable will never let him live down his past as a sex worker.
Everyone who knew about his past met a terrible end. Xie Bingyu died horribly in his previous life, but the Immortal Venerable still holds a grudge and has captured him again in this life.
Xie Bingyu hopes the Immortal Venerable will go easy on him, preferably giving him a quick death.
In the middle of the night, the Immortal Venerable climbs into his bed.
Xie Bingyu's whole body goes rigid.
The Immortal Venerable grits his teeth. "Isn't this the kind of thing you like best? Why are you so cold?"
Xie Bingyu: ?
Who would dare disrespect the Immortal Venerable?
The Immortal Venerable glares at him in frustration. "If you won't do it, I will."
Xie Bingyu: ???
Pinned beneath the Immortal Venerable, he stares in utter confusion.

Xie Bingyu, young lord of the demon race, valued beauty, lust, and love.
In the end, a heart full of love turned to scorched earth.
Yan Lingxiu once believed that the right path to immortality was to be heartless and cast aside love.
So why did his inner demons multiply after the young lord died?
