After My Dao Partner and I Both Lost Our Disguises

Master and disciple | Silly, sweet story | A lighthearted reunion after a breakup

Gong Xiaojin is a demonic cultivator who has spent years undercover in the foremost immortal sect. Not only did she become the sect's senior disciple, she also won over Dongfang Ling, the only true immortal in the world, and made him her cultivation partner.

Before her undercover mission began, her demonic cultivator instructor told her that the Demon Realm had another spy hidden in the immortal sect. But the spy had been undercover for so long that they could no longer find him.

After years of trying and failing to contact her colleague, Gong Xiaojin's resolve gradually wavered. She was also distracted by the Immortal Venerable's beauty. Before she could accomplish her great mission, she had already found herself a partner.

Dongfang Ling is a true immortal with silver hair, snow-white skin, and a plum blossom mark between his brows. He is held in the highest regard in the immortal sect, like an honored ancestor, and Gong Xiaojin has been promoted several generations along with him.

To her, he is teacher and friend, father and brother, superior and inferior... No, that's not right.

In short, Gong Xiaojin is happy to bask in the warmth of her master's love, spending day and night cultivating yin and replenishing yang with the master who is also her partner. She has absolutely no interest in pursuing a career.

Then one day, something happened in the Demon Realm, and they summoned her back, forcing her undercover mission to end.

While her partner was in seclusion, Gong Xiaojin chose a hasty way to fake her death. Not long after she returned, she heard terrible news: Dongfang Ling had been overcome with grief at her death and had resolutely taken his own life, his soul returning to the Ruins.

Gong Xiaojin sneaked into the Abyss of the Forgotten River. Sobbing, she plunged into the river to search for him, but failed to find Dongfang Ling's soul. Instead, she collided with another boat out searching for someone.

Gong Xiaojin: This person looks so familiar. Even beneath that flamboyant, demonic makeup, his features look familiar. Isn't this her partner, who supposedly died and lost his soul?

So his identity was fake, his suicide was fake, and he'd even made her cry.

Gong Xiaojin roared, "Divorce!"

"Sorry, dear, but we can't find a record of your marriage," a staff member at the Demon Realm's Marriage Office said regretfully. "Maybe you two didn't get married around here."

Gong Xiaojin: So if she wants a divorce from Dongfang Ling, she has to go back to the immortal sect and register it there?

She opened the Immortal Realm's divorce registration handbook and found a queue of over ninety-nine people.

Including the mandatory cooling-off period, they would have to stay tied together for another five hundred years.

Gong Xiaojin: "..."

The person who had followed her every step of the way now lifted his sleeve. Long, jade-bone fingers tugged at her pleadingly. His enchanting partner, who now looked even more like an undercover agent after revealing his true appearance, had red-rimmed eyes as he begged softly:

"Then can we start over?"
