The Immortal Lord's Green Lotus Stand-In Has Had Enough

[Dear readers~ Please add my other ongoing novel, After the Medicine Servant Saved the Fallen Peerless Beauty, to your collection!]

Immortal Lord Beiheng is the foremost figure of the righteous path. Legend has it that although he is admired by countless people, he has no interest in beauty and never sets foot in the mortal world. He is the most noble and immaculate person in the immortal sects.

Tao Zhi is the young lord of the Demon Realm and the sworn enemy of the prestigious righteous sects. After failing his tribulation one day, he is reborn as a green lotus in Immortal Lord Beiheng's pond.

Tao Zhi: How thrilling! I've ended up right under my natural enemy's nose!

He has to keep his secret identity under wraps and make sure that bastard Immortal Lord Beiheng doesn't discover him.

So Tao Zhi hides his little claws and obeys every order from the immortal lord, all so he can gather spiritual energy and restore his true form as soon as possible. Then he'll give Immortal Lord Beiheng a grand present to repay today's grudge.

By a twist of fate, Tao Zhi learns that the immortal lord has a white moonlight in his heart, and Tao Zhi is merely that person's substitute. Everyone thinks Tao Zhi will be heartbroken, but in truth, he is laughing wildly to himself.

Being a substitute is great! Being a substitute is wonderful! If he plays his role well, won't all the rare treasures he needs to restore his true form come rolling in?

A bright future lies right before him. If he doesn't seize this chance now, when will he? Tao Zhi is even more excited!

His white moonlight is frail, so Tao Zhi spends his days leaning lazily by the window, looking as if the slightest breeze might carry him away.

Immortal Lord: "What are you doing?"

Tao Zhi coughs up a mouthful of blood, gazes at the sky at a 45-degree angle, and recites: "Red beans grow in the southern land. How many branches will sprout when spring comes...?"

His white moonlight is elegant and magnanimous, so Tao Zhi sheaths his claws and smooths his edges. He can even tolerate a third party crawling into the bed of the person he loves.

The immortal lord grits his teeth in secret. "You're not angry?"

Tao Zhi: "No. As long as you're happy and content."

Tao Zhi diligently plays the role of the white moonlight while his hands keep plundering rare treasures from the immortal lord's residence. He has no idea that the immortal lord's gaze is growing more and more peculiar.

Everyone assumes that the little green lotus in the immortal lord's residence will eventually be driven out of the immortal sects. After all, the white moonlight and the substitute are as different as heaven and earth.

The immortals wait and wait, until the marriage ceremony of Immortal Lord Beiheng, whose name is known across the five realms. He holds the hand of that "substitute," and when the aloofness fades from his brow, his eyes are full of love for him.

"He is the only person I will ever take as my cultivation partner. It has always been him, from beginning to end."

The immortals are in an uproar: What did we miss?

Tao Zhi: ...I'd like to know, too.

Blurb:

Xu Youchuan is a country boy who transmigrates into a xianxia novel about a domineering protagonist. One day, he is chosen to enter Medicine King Valley as a servant.

However, he discovers that things are completely different from what he expected. The Medicine King is an "evil immortal" who kills without batting an eye, and his life is in grave danger.

Then he saves a "medicine human," neither human nor object, and they become dependent on each other, spending every day together.

To Xu Youchuan, the medicine human is still young and must be a poor child who was tricked into coming here.

He takes good care of him, occasionally sneaks him antidotes and nourishing pills, and chats with him each day to pass the time.

The medicine human's heart is dead, so Xu Youchuan holds tightly to his hand and drags him out of the abyss.

As time passes, Xu Youchuan even plans to help him escape.

Who could have guessed the medicine human was once a genius cultivator?

Qin Jue made a name for himself at a young age. He was once the most gifted disciple in the immortal sects, and ascending to immortality would have been no difficult feat for him.

Then he was ambushed and fell from the clouds into the mud.

He thought he would spend the rest of his life as a medicine human, with no control over his fate and not a shred of dignity, until he met Xu Youchuan.

That day, Qin Jue regained his peak cultivation and turned the cultivation world upside down. He once again set foot on the supreme immortal mountain that all looked up to.

But Xu Youchuan said to him:

"Go back. It's time for me to leave, too."

Qin Jue's eyes reddened. He embraced him with all his strength and said, almost obsessively, "Anyone can leave, but not you."

Perhaps the poison in his heart had never gone away, and Xu Youchuan was the only antidote.
