The Fallen Phoenix

(This is a monthly subscription work. You can buy premium chapters at half price, or get a one-month membership to read them for free.) An unprecedented calamity swept through the Shangqing Realm, known as “You.” Wherever the You Calamity struck, bones littered the land, and even those lucky enough to survive were driven mad. For decades, no one found a way to resist the You Calamity, nor could anyone save those caught in its grip. Then a young man appeared out of nowhere, bearing a special spiritual power that could purify the calamity qi. He was warmhearted and kind, sparing no effort to save people and never demanding repayment. He shone like a beacon, his presence peerless. Everyone revered and thanked this heaven-sent savior, and wanted to befriend him. Yet only those closest to him knew that he was actually fickle and flirtatious, and had a habit of wounding people's hearts. P.S.: 1. The protagonist is the one being pursued, and he's a scumbag. Please consider that before reading. 2. The gong is split into multiple selves. There will be a love-rival showdown, then they'll merge. Happy ending. 3. Sweet and angsty, with plenty of melodrama. Not orthodox cultivation. Take a look at my next story: My Life as the Dragon Protagonist's Cat Why would a dragon protagonist who is wild and wicked, has countless enemies, always punches people in the face, and draws blood with every slash of his blade... keep a cat? Le Yuan, who has become a cat, wants to know too. But it's pretty great. The dragon protagonist never has to swallow his anger or let a grudge go unavenged, and neither does the kitty! After spending his days happily munching dried fish and showing off while putting others in their place, Le Yuan suddenly discovers that the dragon protagonist's cultivation technique is going wrong, and he seems to be on the verge of qi deviation... In his panic, Le Yuan turns back into a human: “Bro, wake up, wake up!” (shaking him hard) The dragon protagonist's eyes are bloodshot, his voice icy: “Bro? Hmph. What's that supposed to be?” Le Yuan: “...Then think about your cat! You're responsible for a cat and its food now, so you can't lose to your inner demon!” And so the dragon protagonist comes to his senses. “Seriously, I've never seen a cat slave with symptoms this severe. Every time his inner demon acts up, I have to hold him and soothe him.” By Le Yuan Wild and wicked dragon protagonist gong (Mu Xuefeng) x laid-back kitty shou (Le Yuan) Shou protagonist, happy ending, true-love sweet treat My completed works: loyal-dog male lead gong x scumbag villain shou: When the Villain Knows the Plot Overbearing CEO and cheerful, easygoing gong x obsessive, ruthless shou: When the Boss Becomes a Capturable Character Cool, aloof zither cultivator gong x beautiful, powerful, yet sweet and adorable demon lord shou (actually a devoted fatherly zither-playing dad gong): The Cutest Little Thing in the Demon Realm Theme:
