Immortal Venerable, Your Disciple Has Been Secretly Kept by a Taoist

One-line summary: A master forces his apprentice to die for love, then pursues him through a painful redemption arc. A Taoist priest leaves the clergy and becomes a domineering CEO who spoils his wife without restraint.

Everyone in the spirit realm knows that Si Qing is dead, having perished after summoning heavenly lightning upon herself. No one imagined she could come back to life, let alone in the mortal world a thousand years later, in an age of rapid technological progress.

A thousand years ago, in the Netherworld Sea

"Master, do you really want me dead that badly?"

Covered in blood, Si Qing gazed at the immortal-like Yun Hua Dijun before him, his eyes full of sorrow.

"Si Yuan needs your soul essence as a medicinal primer."

Yun Hua turned his gaze aside. Yet without hesitation, he thrust Wen Qing, the sword in his hand, toward his only apprentice, Si Qing.

What he never expected was that Si Qing would summon heavenly lightning upon herself.

"May Heaven and Earth bear witness, and the sun and moon attest: even if I am reduced to dust and my soul scattered, I will never serve as someone else's medicinal primer."

A thousand years later, in the spirit realm

"Disaster! The soul lamp of Daoist Lord Si Qing has reignited!"

The news sent the entire spirit realm into a frenzy.

The first to leave was Yun Hua Dijun, who had personally forced Si Qing to her death all those years ago and had not taken another apprentice in the thousand years since.

The mortal world

"Little Taoist, aren't you afraid I'll eat you?" A pair of beautiful legs slowly draped over Feng Chi's shoulders.

Feng Chi, his face stern, furrowed his brows and closed his eyes, slowly reciting a mantra to calm his mind. He couldn't help wondering what kind of monster he'd rescued.

"You short-lived little thing, do you know my name? It is Si Qing."

Later, the entire business world knew that the former Taoist priest, CEO Feng, spoiled his wife without restraint, giving her the stars if she asked, and never settling for the moon.

And the Taoist who once recited calming mantras at every turn now massaged his beauty's feet with rose oil in one hand.

"As long as you don't leave, I'd gladly let you eat me."
