The last thing Mu Yunlan saw before he died was his disciple, long since expelled from the sect, self-destructing his demonic core and laying waste to the mortal world.
When Mu Yunlan opened his eyes again, he had been reborn on the day they first met.
For the sake of all living beings, he resolved to raise this little disciple all over again, determined to make him into a noble gentleman, as pure and bright as the moon.
But an old injury flared up, and with a pop, Mu Yunlan turned back into his true form, a fox. His disciple rushed in to pay his respects and grabbed him by the tail.
"Master actually keeps a spirit pet!"
Mu Yunlan closed his eyes and pretended to be dead, mortified beyond words, only to be drawn into a warm embrace and have his head fur ruffled.
Mu Yunlan's vision went dark.
The dignified Immortal Venerable Qingyue, on the first day after being reborn, was kissed, cuddled, and lifted high by his disciple.
Ji Chen'an thought his master had been acting strangely ever since coming out of seclusion.
Specifically
He suddenly started testing Ji Chen'an's lessons, suddenly took him everywhere, and suddenly got a fox as a spirit pet.
Though his master was still clad in flowing white robes, cool and untouchable, Ji Chen'an was certain: his master had suddenly fallen for him.
Otherwise, how would he know that Ji Chen'an had always wanted a fox?
Every night, Ji Chen'an slept hugging the fox, burying his face in its fur as he dreamed of cultivating with his master. He even snuck immortal herbs out of the pharmacy to fatten the fox up.
But why did this fox like the same things as his master?
Later, Mu Yunlan was badly wounded when surrounded by the demon clan, and transformed into his true form in full view of everyone.
Ji Chen'an watched helplessly as his all-powerful master turned into the fox that had kept him company day and night, its pure white, silky fur stained red with blood.
The young man, who had only just reached the Golden Core stage, charged forward with sword in hand and eyes blazing red. "Who dares hurt my master!"
