The complete manuscript is in progress, and I expect to finish it in 2024!
I drew the shou on the cover myself!
(Yes, the shou's weapon is a staff. Bet you didn't expect that.)
Feel free to follow the story in advance!
Luan Cijin:
An indulgent, proud, affectionate junior brother shou who loves acting cute
Lang Yunyu:
A wise, devoted senior brother gong, as elegant as an orchid and bright as the moon
Luan Cijin truly never expected such a clichéd plot to happen to him.
In his original life, the carefree young master had been practically worshipped. Now he had suddenly been given a new identity and was expected to suck up to someone like a lovesick puppy. Hah, not a chance.
He simply did as he pleased, carefree and lazy, but people in the sect found this little good-for-nothing more and more adorable.
Then one day, Luan Cijin was taking a stroll in the hills behind the sect when he met a breathtakingly handsome man.
The handsome man was courteous and mild-mannered, with a refined, distinguished appearance. He was the very picture of a gentleman, serene as the moon and clear as a breeze.
Luan Cijin's heart lurched. He was a total bottom, and this elegant, gentlemanly type was exactly his weakness.
So he made the first move. When he discovered that the handsome man was the sect's senior-most disciple, he began using cultivation as an excuse to visit him and exchange insights. He had only planned to flirt with the handsome man, but who could have guessed that his cultivation would also keep improving under the man's watchful guidance?
Luan Cijin: What a lovely surprise.

Just as Luan Cijin could see his senior brother growing more and more gentle and flirtatious toward him, with only a thin sheet of paper separating them, everything changed. A fellow calling itself the System appeared.
It claimed that this world was a novel, and Luan Cijin was supposed to be a villainous supporting character.
It had been recuperating for a while due to a lack of energy. Now that the plot had deviated further and further, it appeared in a hurry and demanded that Luan Cijin follow his missions. Otherwise, his beloved senior brother would be erased when the world collapsed.

Lang Yunyu noticed that his beloved junior brother had been treating him coldly lately.
He wouldn't let Lang Yunyu hold his hand or touch his head, and even spoke to him in a barbed tone.
What was wrong? Lang Yunyu was at a loss. He had always been elegant and detached from worldly concerns, and couldn't figure out what he had done to upset his junior brother.
He made expensive crystal stones into ornaments and gave them to his junior brother, who threw them on the ground. He nearly lost his life retrieving a divine weapon from a secret realm after his junior brother had casually mentioned it, only for the other man to glance at it and toss it aside. He even wrinkled his nose in disgust at the blood covering Lang Yunyu.
Lang Yunyu's beloved junior brother had thrown his heart to the ground and shattered it.
He couldn't believe his junior brother had really fallen out of love. So he made one last attempt and asked him to become his cultivation partner. His junior brother cruelly humiliated and rejected him.
The light vanished from Lang Yunyu's ever-gentle, tranquil eyes, and dark emotions rose within him.
Just then, he suddenly heard his junior brother's voice, the familiar, sweet and clingy voice he knew so well.
A choked voice made his heart clench. “Senior Brother, I'm sorry... I want to be with you, Senior Brother... I love you so much...”
He jerked his head up, but his junior brother still wore that look of disgust.
What... was going on?
P.S. The System is no good. The senior brother will soon make mincemeat of it.
The author guarantees there will be no angst at all.
The story is split evenly between the plot before the System appears and the plot after it appears.
Theme: Love is fearless. Love is a mutual journey.
