【A Beautiful Convict Who Bewitches Everyone He Meets, Unaware of Their Love: Passionate Feuds / Love Rivals / The Scum Chases His Lover to the Crematorium】
Xie Ling’an was born in Laushan and registered as a convict. To find his older brother and climb the social ladder, he latched onto an exceptionally powerful “connection”: Immortal Lord Wei Lang.
He thought his life was about to take off and that the road to success was finally open. Xie Ling’an was just getting ready to make those who’d bullied him pay, when he was the one thrown in prison.
Abandoned by the people he trusted most, Wei Lang and the master he idolized, Xie Ling’an learned his lesson and started over. One after another, he attached himself to the Lord of Laushan, the young master of the Han family, the Dao Lord of Kunlun, the chief disciple of Tianxuan, and many others.
There are benefactors everywhere in life. When it comes to connections, having more is better than having the best.
He could also endure what others couldn’t, and rekindle his “good” relationship with Immortal Lord Wei Lang, putting their broken bond back together. At the same time, he maintained relationships with both his former and current masters that were half real, half fake, and more than a little ambiguous.
In short, he got himself tangled up in all kinds of messy relationships and questionable affairs.
From law-abiding citizen to lawbreaker, he’d already been thrown in prison, so he figured he had nothing left to lose.
He couldn’t give up the old while pursuing the new. Bigger was better, but he wouldn’t pass up someone younger, either. Among the heroes of the four realms and the leaders of the three clans, he’d get close to everyone he could, and make sure even those he couldn’t reach knew his face. He would keep climbing, one rung at a time.
He firmly believed that if he collected enough powerful connections, someone would come to his aid when he was trapped in a deadly situation.
It was still anyone’s guess who would come out on top: him or the lofty young masters of the great clans and the exalted Immortal Lords.
Who would end up behind bars? Who would sit in the seat of honor?
Xie Ling’an, who was destined to serve out his sentence, kept sinking deeper into scandalous affairs.
From bribery and gift-giving to throwing himself into people’s arms; from deals involving money and power to trading sex for influence; from an upright gentleman to a willing accomplice; from enforcing the law to abusing his position.
Yet everyone thought he was pure and chaste, innocent and blameless, helpless and pitiable, forced into everything by other people’s misdeeds.
One by one, they wanted to drag this “respectable” man into the gutter, yet also save this “fallen” soul.
They all wanted to be both his jailer and his savior, treating the custody of a prisoner like a chance to play the hero and rescue a beauty.
This time, he had fate and the hearts of men entirely in his grasp.
Xie Ling’an understood that these noble young masters were fickle and ruthless, and that they were all using him without an ounce of sincerity. But that was fine, because he felt exactly the same way about them.
There was just one thing he couldn’t understand. He and the others had worked together quite happily, each benefiting from the arrangement. You treated me like a chess piece; I treated you like a stepping-stone. Fair is fair. So why do you all hate me so much?
Xie Ling’an used himself as bait and staked his life on the game, maneuvering among wolves, jackals, tigers, and leopards, hoping to make his enemies devour one another. He didn’t think it was dirty, until he saw the snow of Kunlun.
He walked alone through the long night, surrounded by silent ghosts and monstrous demons, yet he never felt the darkness, until he saw the bright moon above Kunlun’s peak.
When will the moon shine on my journey home?
That day, everyone in the Penglai realm watched their brightest pearl of the Eastern Sea break through layer upon layer of constraints and run without looking back toward Yu Xi of Kunlun.
Yu Xi, Dao Lord of Kunlun, caught Penglai’s pearl in his arms and took the moon from their hearts.
What will it take to make this person stay?
How much love will it take to make you stay?
【Reader’s Guide】
Upright, noble, handsome top with the spirit of a clear breeze and bright moon X scheming, clueless, beautiful bottom who climbs his way to the top.
1. The bottom has arrows pointing at him from every direction. People love him, hate him, and both love and hate him, but he only returns the genuine arrow to the main top.
2. Lots and lots of people will like the bottom. All characters who might be tops are physically and emotionally faithful, and Ling’an and Yu Xi are each other’s first (both are virgins).
But Ling’an will put on an act and get entangled with other people.
3. The others will go crazy, and all the scummy tops will chase their lovers to the crematorium.
Watch the sweet romance between the main couple carve out a path through the other scummy tops’ passionate feuds.
4. The main love interest appears fairly late. The two “ex-husbands,” one real and one fake, fight, compete, and go crazy, and their homewrecker antics get plenty of page time.
5. Most of the people who like Ling’an are both his romantic and political rivals. They’ll try to destroy each other, while Ling’an usually sits back and watches from a safe distance. Sometimes he gets his shoes wet by the river or suffers a minor mishap, but it’s no big deal.
He is both a prisoner and a lord of honor.
