A master who always seems in control but keeps messing things up, top
VS
A rebellious yet delicate and vulnerable disciple, bottom
Synopsis:
Shenyun, of the Illusory Dream Divine Clan, cannot descend into the mortal world in her true form.
She longed to take on a disciple, but unfortunately, her disciple is too popular and has admirers everywhere. She can't cut them all down. There are simply too many!
With no other choice, the master deigns to lower herself,
following the ultimate unattainable-crush script and personally entering the story in a transformed avatar,
only to mess things up and become the disciple's dark moonlight instead.
Xu Ruo, a wood spirit root of the Heaven rank and sect leader of Yingyue Sect.
A ruthless, merciless figure who inspires terror wherever he goes.
Rumor has it that the sect leader of Yingyue Sect betrayed his master, killed his wife to prove his Dao,
and even refined his master's corpse into a soul servant, desecrating it every day.
Everyone wants him dead, and the Heavenly Dao will not tolerate him.
|Blurb|
A servant devours its master; an ant defies Heaven.
Every thought and impulse is a cause, and every cause has its effect.
Author's notes:
1. The top has four identities in the third-tier cultivation kingdom, two in the second-tier kingdom, and one in the first-tier kingdom. Most are hinted at, so pay attention and try to tell them apart. The souls of all the avatars are unified and remain under the master's control. There is no poly relationship!
2. In the third-tier cultivation kingdom, the disciple likes the master without realizing it, and only catches on later. In the second-tier kingdom, he fully realizes his feelings, and the master-disciple romance explodes.
3. The Yingyue Sect arc takes place in the second-tier cultivation kingdom. The second- and first-tier kingdom arcs will overlap at the end.
4. All the romantic entanglements and admirers are an important part of the characters' cultivation, and this will be explained later.
5. The cultivation stages in this story:
