The day I died suddenly at work, I was born into a new life as the infamous young lord of the Demonic Cult’s Hehuan Sect.
Though my sect was visibly on the decline under the united assault of the righteous immortal sects, that didn’t stop it from carrying on its discreetly lascivious ways.
For years, I watched the cult leader and the holy maiden cheat, break up, get abortions, get back together, marry, and divorce. My senior brothers and sisters would spend a whole day doing it to celebrate whenever they had no conflicts, and another whole day doing it to resolve conflicts. The Left and Right Guardians played cat and mouse, with one running and the other chasing, until there was nowhere left to hide... Every day brought a fresh scene of illicit sex.
When I came of age, they invited me to join in on their daily “activities” and even planned to have a man force himself on me.
No way. Arranged marriage is feudal trash.
My numb, overworked life in my previous existence had drained me of worldly desires. Now, I only wanted to build my career and make the Demonic Cult great again.
To shut everyone up, I decided to find someone to pretend to be my temporary lover.
Hmm, that abstinent genius from the First Immortal Sect, who cultivates the path of emotionlessness, looks like a perfect fit.

A Hehuan Sect top who’s genuinely impotent X an emotionless-path bottom who is not actually abstinent
As always, a gorgeous top and a powerful bottom who pursues him
The character concepts are tentative. I’ll revise the blurb and title after I work out the outline.
The blurb is in first person, the story is in third person.
I’m terrible at names, so I won’t know what the leads are called until I start writing. Placeholder for now.
