Without a demon core, bloodline, or talent, can a cat really do nothing but live an ordinary life? Can’t it cultivate?
Ting Changqing gazes at the little black cat in his arms, looking up at him with wide, adorable eyes, and thinks: Why shouldn’t my cat son be able to stay by my side for a long, long time?
For eight hundred years, Ting Changqing has never ventured far from home, devoting himself to a life of seclusion. But to help the cat son he just rescued live longer, he resolutely abandons his calm, ordinary life and travels far and wide in search of opportunities.
Along the way, he meets plenty of fluffy creatures who have stumbled into cultivation through chance:
A mountain lord who protects its territory and loves to dive; a fox who gets up to mischief playing with dogs; a proud rabbit with a hair-trigger temper; and an unlucky, blind snake with no sense of direction…
Ting Changqing holds out the little black cat in his arms and humbly asks for advice.
Unfortunately, nothing works.
“It’s okay. Your dad will make sure you live even longer than a tortoise.” Ting Changqing lifts his cat son’s paw and makes the promise to the heavens, the earth, and the little black cat.
Fortunately, his hard work pays off, and an opportunity comes looking for him.
“My little cat has no bloodline, no talent, and no demon core. Can it really cultivate? Can it really live a long, long time?”
The opportunity himself: “…” “It can.”

As they spend more and more time together, their feelings gradually change.
As expected, the storybooks were right: you only meet love when you go out into the world.
But a little black cat is bound to get fatherly love from Ting Changqing, not romantic love.
Seeing how worried Ting Changqing is about the mortal body of his little black cat cultivating, Xie Jingheng regains his strength, creates a clone, and teaches himself.
His main body can teach him and use the opportunity to get closer to Ting Changqing and nurture their relationship.
His smaller form can act cute and cuddle in Ting Changqing’s arms.
Two birds with one stone.
Proud of how quickly things are progressing, Xie Jingheng writes to his older brother: I’ve already found love. I’ve decided to live in seclusion with the one I love, so I won’t be returning to the demon realm for now. Maybe we’ll meet again someday.
Xie Lang, who’s swamped with work, planning to train his younger brother to share the burden, and hoping to travel the world with his cultivation partner: ?
