The Immortal Master Lives Off His Partner

One day, Nan Gui regains his memories. The good news: He is a Nascent Soul True Monarch who failed his tribulation and reincarnated to cultivate again. Once he starts cultivating, he can return to the peak of his power. He's the perfect standard-issue protagonist of a power fantasy. The bad news: Earth's spiritual energy is too thin to support cultivation, and his current situation can be summed up in one sentence: “His mother is missing, his father is in surgery, and his life is falling apart.” The good news: He recently received a million yuan. The bad news: He earned it by selling himself to a man. In short: He became someone's lover. The Nascent Soul True Monarch is a thing of the past. Now he's just an ordinary man who has to bow to the almighty five pecks of rice. A real man knows when to bend and when to stand tall. Nan Gui quickly accepts reality. He used to be a mighty Nascent Soul cultivator admired by all, but a kept man should know his place. If he's going to live off someone, he has to do it well. Improving his skills is essential. Nan Gui holds The Kept Man's Guide to Self-Cultivation. No, wait! He holds The Full-Time Househusband's Guide to Self-Cultivation. In the past, he scoffed at it. Now he studies it frame by frame. After Yan Bei breaks off her engagement to her cheating fiancé, she's in a bad way. One day, her nine-year-old cousin takes Yan Zhibei's spare phone and tells her mysteriously that he's found her a new online boyfriend. They're meeting that afternoon! Before shoving Yan Bei out the door, her cousin thoughtfully reminds her to pay the man the remaining five hundred thousand yuan. The poor kid must have been scammed. Yan Bei decides to meet the eighteen-year-old college guy who scammed a primary school student out of 188 yuan in pocket money. After meeting him, Yan Bei says, “A mere million? That's nothing.” She thought she'd gotten herself a pretty-boy boyfriend, but it turns out he can host guests and cook, fight ghosts and take on little demons. Not only does he have a youthful face and a fit body, he also has nimble fingers for cat's cradle and a waist that never quits. Theme: Be self-respecting, independent, strong, and self-reliant.
