The First Rule of Pretending to Be an Omega Is Looking Pretty

Yi Xuecun became a top-tier star the moment he debuted, and his fans were famous for being both fierce and unhinged.

While other celebrities were raking in the benefits of popular pairings, any Alpha who dared get close to Yi Xuecun would be torn to shreds in no time.

Over time, everyone knew that pairing up with Yi Xuecun would bring nothing but bad publicity.

His rival mocked him: "Yi Xuecun has had one scandal after another ever since his debut. They even caught him with his fiance, a high-ranking military officer, the other day. Are his fans really so stupid that they still think their precious idol is a pure, innocent virgin?"

Fans: "Why do you keep making up all these sex scandals about our Xuecun? Do you have some kind of cuckold fetish?"

Yi Xuecun was an exceptionally gifted Omega, with an angelic face once selected as one of "the most beautiful faces of the century." He came from a noble family and graduated from the Imperial Star's top arts academy.

Ever since his debut, he had been involved in ambiguous rumors with numerous Alphas. Any other celebrity would have been finished by now, yet Yi Xuecun's popularity only kept growing.

The fans' favorite way to recommend him was: "If you're a sucker for good looks, follow Yi Xuecun!! If you admire the strong, follow Yi Xuecun!!"

Even bystanders couldn't help remarking: "I can't imagine how hopeless it must feel to be Yi Xuecun's rival."

Yi Xuecun had run into a bit of trouble lately. His fiance, the high-ranking military officer, was coming back.

They had fallen out eight years ago. Now Fu Heng was a rising brigadier general in the military.

He had returned carrying a grudge against Yi Xuecun.

At first, Yi Xuecun wasn't all that troubled. Taming a vicious dog that had once grovelled at his feet was only a matter of time.

That was until Fu Heng got hold of the secret Yi Xuecun had hidden for years.

Yi Xuecun wasn't an Omega.

He was only a Beta.

The vicious dog used Yi Xuecun's secret to corner him step by step. "You can start begging me now."

"If your fans find out you're only a Beta, will they still love you?"

Yi Xuecun: "Hmm... Why wouldn't they?"

His voice was like that of a demon tempting people to ruin. "Just like you. Don't you love me anymore?"

Fu Heng: "..."

-

The day Yi Xuecun's Beta identity was exposed was a veritable earthquake in the entertainment industry.

A landslide and flood swept over him. Everyone thought Yi Xuecun would surely be crushed and fall from stardom for good.

Amid the controversy, the industry's most aloof acclaimed director offered Yi Xuecun a script written just for him and publicly declared, "He is the lead in my new film, and my creative muse."

A rival celebrity whose fans had spent every day fighting with Yi Xuecun's fans confessed to him: "Yi Xuecun has been the dream I've kept in my heart since I was young."

Just a few days after Yi Xuecun's new film premiered, fans across the internet cried: "When have I, the emperor, ever had a falling-out with Xuexue!!!"

Hatred is love wrapped in arsenic.

Yi Xuecun was immune to every poison.

The love and hatred of so many people made him a star of his era.

A magnetic, doted-on, ambitious beauty, a Beta pretending to be an Omega, the adored recipient

A loyal dog turned vicious, a love-struck, overbearing Alpha

Coming soon: Everyone in the Immortal Sect Is the Weasel's Cultivation Partner

Ling You was a white weasel, and lately he had been feeling a little panicked.

This was his one hundred and second year since transmigrating into the book world of The Immortal Journey, and his master had ascended.

In other words, his backing was gone.

Ling You teared up: Was he really going to face this cruel world all alone, just a weasel?

-

Daoist Lord Lingxiao attained enlightenment and ascended. The various immortal sects sent their elite disciples to the Daoist Lord's ruins in search of opportunities.

This was where the story in the book began.

Ling You was a useless weasel. All he could do was watch as a horde of cultivators treated the home he and his master had once shared as a blessed land, plundering its natural treasures as if they were entitled to them. He was so angry he ate fifty pieces of dried meat.

Even with a full belly, life had to go on.

Seeing all the talented heroes of the book gathered here, Ling You began to plot. It was time to find himself another big thigh (meal ticket).

The cultivation world was ruled by the survival of the fittest, and he was only a weasel! Clinging to a powerful backer was the way to survive!

Ling You met the characters from the book one by one.

Only, they weren't quite as the book had described them...

The famously righteous and kind protagonist seduced him by every means possible into forming a pact.

The famously cold and heartless protagonist went so far as to shield him with his own body when he was in danger.

The famously ruthless villain was also a master at roasting dried meat!

The weasel: It isn't (chew, chew) as cruel (chew, chew) as I imagined.

Just as the people of the immortal sects were fighting tooth and nail over who would raise a white weasel,

a thunderous boom rang out in the sky.

Ling You's ascended master cleaved open the gates of heaven with a single sword strike, forcibly broke through the void, and came back for him.

_

After cultivating for a hundred years, Lingxiao finally attained the Dao and ascended. He never imagined that the master-servant pact wouldn't let him take his weasel with him, so he had to find a way back to retrieve it.

Defying the heavens meant he was struck by heavenly lightning every day in the mortal realm. A few more years of that, and he'd be slow-roasted until he smelled even better than the dried meat his little weasel ate.

But a few years clearly wouldn't be enough to drag his lazy, food-loving weasel all the way to ascension.

Lingxiao gazed at the little weasel, asleep on its back with its belly exposed, and fell into thought.

There was only one option: resort to extraordinary measures.

Two days later, Daoist Lord Lingxiao, famous for having ascended and then returned, put out a recruitment notice known to the whole world:

"I have a little weasel at home, one hundred and two years old [rough sketch attached]. I am now seeking a cultivation partner [circled in red ink].

Applicants must be at least at the Deity Transformation stage. Outstanding spiritual roots and pure spiritual energy preferred.

No virgins. Ugly applicants who dare show up are dead meat [circled in red ink]."

A magnetic, doted-on protagonist story, with an adorable protagonist.

P.S. The protagonist is a white weasel who transmigrated into a book. He was also a weasel in modern society. Though intelligent, he still thinks like an animal.
