A ridiculously popular junior disciple arrived at the sect.
Everyone who didn't like Mo Tian fell for him, regardless of gender, and rushed to fawn over him.
Mo Tian: I want to see what there is to fawn over. He's just a guy...
He glanced at his face and gaped in shock.
Then he fell madly in love, too, and joined the others in fawning over him.
Mo Tian already had a bit of an arrogant, condescending streak. Everyone agreed he was a poser, and his fellow disciples all ignored his advances. What made him think he had a chance?
The junior disciple found him the most annoying of all his admirers.
One day, by a twist of fate, the junior disciple had to cultivate duality with someone, and Mo Tian got the opportunity of a lifetime.
Mo Tian happily went to meet him. Then the junior disciple awakened his lightning spiritual root and sent electricity coursing through Mo Tian from head to toe, nearly shocking his soul out of his body.
One session of cultivation, three years of impotence.
Mo Tian: ...I can't do this. I have a supreme water spiritual root.
A supreme water spiritual root is intensely incompatible with lightning, and Mo Tian is more afraid of electricity than anyone. The junior disciple lets out a little lightning, and Mo Tian leaks until dawn.
Sorry, I'm done fawning over you.
You're not worthy of me anymore, junior brother.

If the junior disciple were as genuinely kind and gentle as he seemed, things probably would have ended there.
But he wasn't.
This junior disciple was a pureblood Heaven-Swallowing Serpent from the demon race, hiding in the immortal sect. He thought all the cultivators bewitched by his bloodline, who mistook it for true love, were idiots. He thought Mo Tian, the most devoted suck-up of them all, was especially idiotic for being so obsessed with his looks and such a shameless poser.
During a forced session of dual cultivation, he deliberately sent electricity through Mo Tian until he cried and wailed.
Watching that beautiful, trembling face, unable to escape and only able to beg for mercy, the handsome demonic serpent junior disciple suddenly found it rather amusing.
So even an idiot who's annoying at first glance can prove useful in the right place.
And if he's useful, naturally, I'll make use of him more often.
If you won't let me use him, I'll turn the whole sky upside down.
"Senior Brother Mo Tian, you wouldn't want anyone to find out I shocked you until you broke, would you?"
