Rebel Disciple [Full-Dive Online Game]

Here's a more upbeat version of the blurb:

[Stealing a Little Leisure]: Get lost! You're so badly behaved, I don't want you as my disciple anymore!

[Things Settled, I Brush Off My Sleeves] (crying): Master, don't you love me anymore??? Tell me what I did wrong! I'll change!

[Stealing a Little Leisure] (furious): I worked so hard to raise you, and you actually want to sleep with me?! There's no love left!

[Things Settled, I Brush Off My Sleeves] (lying flat in defeat, throwing a tantrum): Sob, sob, Master, I'm sorry! Don't go!

[Bu Xian]: Heh heh heh, long live the account-deletion escape plan! Let's see what you can do now.

[Bu Xian] (quietly thinking to himself: My disciple's pretty capable. I underestimated him): Thanks, but I'm not joining your guild.

[Things Settled, I Brush Off My Sleeves] (grabbing Bu Xian by the belt): Shifu, you don't have to join the guild! You don't have to join! Be my wife, and I'll give you back your guild and your city, plus a handsome, rich husband!

[Bu Xian] kicked [Things Settled, I Brush Off My Sleeves], who was overjoyed.

Old blurb:

He Guifeng's peaceful gaming life was turned upside down.

An unexpected confession from his in-game disciple led to a series of mishaps that reset He Guifeng to level one and severed all his connections. The once-famous, all-game number-one powerhouse became a newbie nobody knew.

They say what is meant to happen cannot be avoided. In the game, He Guifeng tried to give them both some time to cool off as his disciple, Shi Liao Fu Yi, pursued him again and again. But fate has a way of bringing people together when they least expect it. There was no escaping it.

After a series of twists and turns in real life, two people who had once been strangers gradually grew familiar with each other.

Added January 16:

It suddenly occurred to me that using an account reset for a full-dive online game makes this kind of like a fake-rebirth story... But now that the protagonist has started over, it's pretty interesting that the love interest outranks him in the game, while outside the game the protagonist outranks the love interest.
