Rong Chen, heir to the Northern Capital's princely house, had been a shameless troublemaker who loved to stir up trouble since childhood.
When he came of age, his father sent him to Aishan Sword Sect to clear his mind and cultivate his character.
The old sect master of Aishan solemnly introduced the sect's youngest elder as his master.
Looking at the little elder before him, half a head shorter, with fair skin, bright eyes, and pearly teeth, Rong Chen lifted his peach-blossom eyes and grinned maliciously. "Little guy, are you weaned yet? Are you going to teach me swordsmanship while drinking milk?"
He'd planned to follow up with, "Do you cry a lot?" and "Do you have cavities?"
But he never got the chance to say either.
After being kicked out of the sect's main hall, Rong Chen finally learned just how high and steep Aishan's ten-zhang flight of heavenly steps was.

During one chance encounter with demons while the master and his disciple were out on a mission:
Rong Chen was unlucky enough to be poisoned by a charm toxin.
He grabbed his jade-faced, narrow-waisted, slender-legged little master, Mu Quan, and asked in a low voice, "Could you help me?"
Mu Quan lowered his eyes.
The man's gaze before him had grown dark and deep, the corners of his eyes unnaturally red, and veins stood out across the backs of his hands.
At last, the little master gave an almost imperceptible nod.
He grabbed Rong Chen by the collar and, in a dizzying whirl, threw him into the snowfield's icy spring, a privilege normally reserved for the sect's high-ranking elders during cultivation.
He broke the rules and made an exception, holding Rong Chen in the spring for an entire day and night.

Rong Chen: From now on, we'll each use our own terms. I'll call you Master, and you'll call me Big Brother.
Mu Quan: ...
