My Master Forced Me to Be a Stand-In

1.

Just after Lan Ze'an takes human form, he is chosen as a replacement disciple because he resembles Chu Ya, the disciple of Venerable Chu Manchuan of the Cangxiao Sect.

Calling him a replacement is no exaggeration.

Chu Ya has spent his life competing with the sword and has never lost.

Lan Ze'an, on the other hand, loses his very first sect tournament.

He thinks he and Chu Ya are nothing alike, but gradually realizes they share one thing.

He, too, has dared to fall in love with his master, his senior brother's teacher.

2.

Chu Manchuan has always been cold-hearted. The most irrational thing he ever did was fail to stop his disciple Chu Ya when he got drunk...

Only to be told the next morning that Chu Ya was dead.

He waited seven hundred years for Chu Ya, only to discover that Chu Ya had apparently been cultivating the heartless path all along.

One enters the Dao through love, then, upon reaching a certain level of cultivation, severs love with a stroke of the sword to become a Golden Immortal.

Chu Manchuan glares at him, finally unable to hold back: "Chu Ya! How dare you toy with me like this!"

Lan Ze'an listens, his heart aching with unspeakable bitterness. "As long as Master is happy, this disciple is willing to be Senior Brother's substitute."

3.

At long last, Chu Ya regains his memories, but before Chu Manchuan can settle accounts with him, he discovers that Chu Ya has split into two personalities again.

Lan Ze'an thinks Chu Manchuan has made him a vessel for Chu Ya's soul, and that he only managed to keep his sanity by fighting to the death.

Chu Ya thinks that during the seven hundred years he was gone, his master really did find a substitute and even grew attached to him.

When Lan Ze'an comes to his senses, he is heartbroken. "Master really has always treated me as a substitute!"

When Chu Ya comes to his senses, he is so jealous he is nearly insane. "Isn't that guy just a substitute? Why does Master care so much about him?"

Chu Manchuan: "..."

P.S. 1v1, younger gong; the gong does not cultivate the heartless path.

Coming soon: "Lord Fox"

A master of soothing tempers VS a short fuse

A beautiful, scheming tyrant and a straightforward nine-tailed fox spirit

When the jade mine he is in charge of collapses, Lian Heng heads up the mountain to seek shelter.

In a temple at the summit stands a strange statue of a nine-tailed fox.

The nine-tailed fox wakes after years of slumber to find the world transformed. Spiritual energy is thin and weak, and some strange force has sealed away his magic.

The wards around his mountain are damaged. A trespasser enters his shrine, reverently sets down a spirit-gathering stone, and asks for his protection.

Hmm... Very good. Someone has brought me an offering.

The nine tails behind the fox sway with satisfaction. He appears proudly on the altar, looks his follower up and down, and promptly declares, "From now on, you will call me Lord Fox."

Lian Heng, who has set down a blood diamond after getting caught in the rain: "..."

His years of materialism are ruined, and his worldview is shattered to pieces.

Theme: Turn the tables against adversity and become a better version of yourself.
