Young Hero, Are You Running from Your Wedding Too?

Yue Xi had been called the most beautiful person under heaven for eighteen years. Everyone thought he was a girl, and even his mother was so caught up in the act that she insisted on marrying him off to the young lord of the Poison Sect, whom he'd been betrothed to as a baby.

They said the young lord of the Poison Sect had three heads and six arms, was ruthless, and killed without mercy. Yue Xi couldn't imagine how he'd react on their wedding night when he discovered his bride was a man.

To save his own life, Yue Xi ran away from the wedding.

In his eighteen years of life, he'd never set foot in the jianghu before. Luckily, on his second day out there, he picked up a companion.

The boy was handsome and pale. When Yue Xi found him, he was sitting under a tree, coughing, looking like a sickly person who wouldn't live much longer.

Yue Xi was an outgoing sort, so he generously shared his water flask and asked:

"Friend, the world is vast and the jianghu stretches far. Meeting you must be fate. Who are you? Why are you here alone?"

The boy shot him a cold glance and tossed out two words:

"Running away from a wedding."

Yue Xi felt it was all fated. Excited, he grabbed the boy's hand:

"!! Me too!"

Yue Xi and the boy, Mei Xianghan, set off to roam the jianghu together, and Yue Xi vowed he'd protect the little weakling.

They accidentally wandered into the utterly wicked Rakshasa Gang and were about to be silenced. Before long, the entire gang was wiped out, their bodies strewn a hundred paces away.

Yue Xi: "We don't have to die! Xianghan! Heaven is on our side!!"

Mei Xianghan quietly disposed of the poison and filthy blood in his hands, then smiled and nodded:

"It's all thanks to you, Brother."

The two encountered bandits holding up travelers. Yue Xi was just about to fight them, but the next moment, they fled in disarray.

Yue Xi looked at the wooden sword in his hand. "I'm so strong!"

Mei Xianghan put away the Poison Sect token and coughed twice, pretending to be frail:

"Brother is brave and mighty. Your sheer presence was enough to scare the enemy away. How impressive."

The two spent all their money and had no choice but to sleep under a bridge. As they passed a luxurious inn, the innkeeper came out smiling to greet them:

"Congratulations! You're the five hundredth guests to pass by our inn today. Here's a prize: two passes for a lifetime of free stays!"

Yue Xi thought their journey through the jianghu was going a little too smoothly. They kept stumbling across treasures, and whenever they met bad people, they escaped danger before a fight could even start.

Yue Xi thought he must be some kind of child of destiny, until one day, the two of them encountered a disciple dressed in the garb of the Poison Sect on a small road.

Yue Xi cried out in despair:

"It's over! My three-headed, six-armed, blue-faced, tusked fiance has come to settle the score. Xianghan, run first!!"

But the Poison Sect disciple hadn't come to capture him.

The man dropped to his knees with a thud:

"Young Lord!!"

Yue Xi froze, then turned to look.

The pale, handsome boy smiled and spread his hands:

"Three heads and six arms, with a blue face and tusks?"

Yue Xi: ?

...So it was you.
