After Stealing the Protagonist's Fortune, They Came Looking for Me

[The protagonist has flaws and is not perfect. Read with caution.] [The official and pirated versions differ significantly. Please read the official version on Jinjiang.] [If you spot any garbled text, please point it out. Thank you very much.] Yue Zhezhi discovered that he was a vicious cannon-fodder character with a special constitution. To rewrite his tragic fate, he took off his mask, adopted a secret identity as a wandering cultivator, and set out to swindle the protagonist, Rong Yan, out of his fortune. After ten years of diligently swindling him, Yue Zhezhi finally managed to steal a tiny bit of his fortune. He immediately forged a fake letter claiming he was going home to get married and fled back to his sect under cover of night. He planned to keep his head down and live out his life with that tiny bit of fortune. 2, After hiding in the sect for five years, Yue Zhezhi was forced to leave and meet the junior apprentice who had been training outside all this time and whom he'd never met. The junior apprentice seemed ill, proud, and aloof. The moment Yue Zhezhi saw him, he went cold all over, his heart pounding. He wanted nothing more than to turn and run as far away as possible. His luck was rotten. The junior apprentice was none other than the protagonist, Rong Yan. 3, When Rong Yan left the sect as a youth to train, he met a wandering cultivator. The cultivator was beautiful and harmless-looking, and would chat with him about everything under the sun and quietly slip him all kinds of sweets. Rong Yan knew he cultivated the Heartless Dao and shouldn't fall in love, but he still developed feelings he shouldn't have. He protected the other man at every turn, even when he himself was in danger. He protected him for ten years, but the other man ran away. All he left behind was a letter saying he was going home to get married. Rong Yan was furious and searched everywhere. After scouring the six provinces without finding him, his Heartless Dao was utterly destroyed. He stopped dreaming of him and stopped hearing phantom voices, but was so consumed by hatred that he coughed up blood. If I ever find you, I'll kill you and grind your bones to dust! 4, With his Heartless Dao destroyed, Rong Yan was forced to end his training and return to the sect. When he saw the masked senior apprentice who had come to escort him back, a smile slowly appeared on his face, and the taste of blood rose in his throat. Looks like... I've found him.
