Gu Weihuang is one of the few people in this world with the purest human bloodline. He could, for all anyone knows, invent a new civilization, rule the world, and build a harem surrounded by three thousand beauties. He's powerful and rare, but all he wants is a quiet life on Zhiling Mountain, where he can grow crops and flowers, tease the Earth Immortals, and be bored out of his mind.
Then he meets Tang Sancai, who is not only an utter idiot but also a chuunibyou tsundere to the death.
Tang Sancai has the bloodline of the most powerful monsters and could very well become the future king of the Divine Flame Kingdom. But he can only occasionally maintain the appearance of an eight-year-old child, and most of the time he shows up looking like a pheasant. Tang Sancai says that he's weak right now, but that's only because he hasn't grown up yet! He's always believed that once he reaches adulthood, he'll be stronger and more beautiful than any other monster!
Then he meets Gu Weihuang, a stupid human who is not only grabby, foul-mouthed, and a few sandwiches short of a picnic, but also thinks Tang Sancai's gorgeous nine-colored tail feathers are ugly.
Apparently, daily life on Zhiling Mountain goes like this:
Gu Weihuang, clutching an empty jar, flies into a rage: "Damn it! You little brat, get over here! You stole the pills I made again!"
Tang Sancai, in pheasant form: "It's your honor that this great lord ate your pills! And another thing! Old man, call me a kid one more time and see what happens!"
Gu Weihuang grabs Tang Sancai by his nine tail feathers.
"Old man! How dare you treat my tail like that! I'll breathe fire and burn you to death!"
Gu Weihuang, deadpan: "...Oh."
After they're forced to leave Zhiling Mountain, daily life goes like this:
Tang Sancai sees Gu Weihuang, who is about to be caught by a calamity monster and doesn't even realize he's in danger, and instantly flies into a rage: "Old man, get over here, now! Can't you see that thing wants to eat you? You're under my protection!"
Gu Weihuang turns around and jumps in fright. "Damn!"
Then his hands move faster than his brain, and he instantly burns the calamity monster to ashes with a fire spell.
Tang Sancai: "..." (Flops over! You can't just ignore the script! Weren't you supposed to be the hero who saves the beauty?)
Gu Weihuang, deadpan: "...Yeah."
