Content warning: A subordinate oversteps, mild coercion, not a strong female lead
[Dark, twisted, ruthless disciple x aloof, otherworldly ice-beauty master]
Wei You had slept beneath the ice of the Northern Wastes for a thousand years when someone split open her ice coffin with a single sword stroke. She raised her sword and swept through three thousand li of wind and snow, then looked down and saw a boy.
He had the bones of an immortal, with astonishing talent.
Wei You taught him swordsmanship and the Great Way, raising the little disciple she'd picked up into a man of noble bearing who could tread the snowy peaks.
Later, her disciple pinned her down in the sea of consciousness, inhaled the cool fragrance at her neck, and narrowed his eyes.

As a boy, Xie Chenjun once met an immortal. Barefoot, she walked across a frozen cliff and looked down at him. "Would you come with me?"
White robes, a snowy sword, proud and untouched by the frost.
Xie Chenjun followed her out of the Northern Wastes, roamed the mortal world in search of the Great Way, and learned from her coldness and loneliness.
Later, he realized that being noble and upright wasn't enough to pluck the cold moon from the mountaintop.
Immortal arts were useless in the sea of consciousness. For the first time, he smelled the fragrance at the immortal's neck.
