Devoted cultivation straight man × scheming, sweet, obedient homemaker
After graduating from the Heartless Dao, Xie Feibai transmigrates into another world and has to start from scratch. Luckily, he soon meets someone like him: this world's Chosen One.
The two strike a deal. He'll help the Chosen One follow the plot in exchange for some of his fortune.
*
He goes to break off the engagement, but fails. The bride turns out to be one of eight men.
Unbelievable. Degenerate and depraved!
He can't stand to see his brother suffer, so he draws his sword, steals the bride, and carries off the drugged man.
Who could have guessed that when the Chosen One wakes up, he would lie weakly in Xie Feibai's arms and whisper, "Help... help me... there..."
Xie Feibai reaches out and carefully presses a few acupoints. "Unblock the meridians, calm the mind, and improve circulation. Where else did you say it hurt?"
"..."
*
He goes to scavenge for treasures in a secret realm. A great demon pins down the Chosen One and demands a night of passion before handing over its treasure.
Absurd. What a depraved mind!
He can't stand seeing a demon act so undemonlike, so he draws his sword and kills it, then escorts the shaken Chosen One to claim the treasure: a legendary manual.
Who could have guessed that night, the Chosen One would invite him to his room, blushing and shy? "This divine art requires someone to help. How about we practice together?"
Before they begin, Xie Feibai asks curiously, "I forgot to mention, I cultivate the Heartless Dao. Can I still practice it?"
"..."
*
He is recruited by a mysterious great sect, where he accidentally catches an Immortal Venerable trying to force the Chosen One to practice that divine art with him. The Venerable even plans to turn him into a cultivation vessel and pass him down through the generations.
?
What the @#%*!
He can't stand seeing a beast pretending to be human, so he draws his sword and comprehends the Dao, breaking the formation and taking the injured Chosen One back to their old home, the Peak of the Ninth Heaven.
Who could have guessed that while recuperating in the cold spring, the Chosen One would cling to him and refuse to let him go? "The spring is so cold. You're so warm..."
Xie Feibai raises an eyebrow and demonstrates a technique, heating the water. He beams with pride. "Impressive, right? This is the Flame Art."
"..."
*
When the two leave seclusion, they find all manner of wolves and monsters waiting for them, all hoping to steal the Chosen One's fortune from him. They are all dreaming.
Until one day, the Chosen One comes to fulfill his promise to share his fortune with him. There are supposedly three steps to the process:
First, a plum blossom blooms. "So sharing our fortune means getting married... In this freezing snow, that's so sudden... Good thing I came prepared."
Second, peach blossoms bloom everywhere. "Transferring fortune means physical intimacy... A kiss? Oh, on the cheek... Wait, is that enough...?"
Third, that other flower blooms. "Why wasn't I the one you said you loved that day? What are you pretending for... Don't you dare run away."
*
Shen Yizhi, the protagonist of a danmei novel, was once the Chosen One. After being framed and cast down from the heights of power, he unexpectedly meets an extraordinary figure: the Immortal Venerable of the Immortal Realm, who was struck by lightning and left stupid.
Surely Heaven has taken pity on him. He won't let this chance slip away.
Even if he's a Chosen One without a sword, even if he's a Chosen One who's lost his luck, he'll follow that vine
Climbing step by step to the very top.
*
But the Chosen One never expected that he'd make it to the top, only to find the vine wrapped around him so tightly.
Note: One-on-one romance, both leads are sexually inexperienced, happy ending.
