The foremost seat of the Immortal Realm once mended the Heavens, but in doing so, used up all the spiritual energy in his body. All he had left was a long lifespan and a body full of ailments.
Foremost Seat of the Immortal Realm, Lou Chenghan: No matter. Once I swallow the Heaven and Earth Elixir, I can recover as good as new.
But when he split open the mountain gate with his life essence, the Heaven and Earth Elixir had vanished, leaving behind only a tattered note:
Master, your disciple will gladly take the Heaven and Earth Elixir. I suggest you take up demonic cultivation instead. You’ll get twice the results with half the effort~
Lou Chenghan spat blood all over the ground. Gritting his teeth, he fled into the snowy forest to live in seclusion, intending to recuperate and spend the rest of his days in peace.
His wicked disciple, who had been expelled from the sect hundreds of years ago, was hanging upside down from the rafters of his room, grinning as he handed him a blood-soaked demonic heart.
Gong Shengnie: Master, Master, a fresh demonic heart! Swallow it, and we can take up demonic cultivation! From now on, let’s cultivate together!
Lou Chenghan trembled all over and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Just as Gong Shengnie happily thought he was about to anger his master to death, Lou Chenghan suddenly collapsed.
Gong Shengnie crouched down and poked his master’s body.
Cold and stiff.
He’d frozen solid.
Gong Shengnie smiled as he conjured a ball of flame.
That wouldn’t do. He planned to make his master his own possession. How could he let him freeze to death like this?
Five hundred years ago.
The foremost seat of the Immortal Realm’s first disciple turned demonic and wreaked havoc across ten cities, cracking open the Heavenly Gate and letting in the miasma.
The foremost seat put righteousness above family, then pursued his disciple’s primordial spirit for thousands of miles, finally destroying it on the shores of the Black Sea.
That destruction fulfilled Lou Chenghan’s divine mission and brought about the future Demon Lord, Gong Shengnie.
Gong Shengnie wanted to see just how Lou Chenghan could resist now, without the Heaven and Earth Elixir or the spiritual energy in his body, reduced to dragging his ruined body through a miserable existence.
He was going to make this once lofty immortal revered as a god become a demon through and through, subdued by his bloodline, and from then on obey his every command... never again able to do anything that would hurt him.
Reader’s Guide:
A sickly, aloof master on the receiving end X a shameless, grinning disciple on the giving end
* The disciple is obnoxiously shameless early on and does plenty of outrageous things. If that’s not your thing, just scroll on by.
* The one on the receiving end is sickly, but not physically weak. He fights dirty and is not the fragile, porcelain beauty type.
* The author loves melodrama, so please don’t scrutinize the logic. Pretty please!
* This is an id-driven work, so please don’t apply your moral standards to it!!!
* It may or may not be satisfying, and whether it’s your thing is up to you.
