The VIP chapters begin with Chapter 30, so please be careful not to buy the wrong chapters if you've already read them. * As a widely respected immortal lord, admired throughout the cultivation world for his noble character, Qiu Wu harmed three people during his long life. The first was his master. He dug out his master's spiritual root, then flayed him, tore out his heart, and ground his bones to dust, leaving him no chance to seize another body and return to life. The second was his senior brother, who was also his cultivation partner. He led his senior brother astray and drove him into demonic cultivation. The cultivation world joined forces to hunt him down and imprisoned him in the Demon-Suppressing Tower, where he spent a century without seeing daylight. The third was his disciple, the child he had raised with his own hands. He raised his disciple to become a prodigy of their sect, then, just when the boy was most devoted to him, took his spiritual root. The boy fell into the Demonic Abyss by accident and vanished without a trace. His master wished him a miserable death, while his senior brother hoped to see him disgraced and ruined. Only his mute little disciple never once voiced a word of resentment. Another century passed. As Qiu Wu's reputation was about to be ruined and his death seemed inevitable, he gave his disciple countless chances to take revenge and end his life. On the hundred-and-first chance, they were trapped in the snare of the major sects with no way out. Qiu Wu turned his back to his disciple, leaving himself completely defenseless. But this time, his disciple still did not strike. * "I led you astray and harmed you, hurt you and abandoned you. It's time I repaid you with my life. Why won't you do it?" Qiu Wu was a petty man who never let a grudge go unanswered. He couldn't understand it no matter how much he thought about it. His mute little disciple only replied, "But I think you've always been the best person in all three realms." * A seemingly noble and refined, but actually dark and unhinged master VS an upright and proper disciple who only acts cute and rolls around in front of his master Qiu Wu (Qiu Wu/Qiu Wu) VS Song Hong (Song Tingkong) The disciple is mute when he's little. He's much better as an adult, but still doesn't talk much. He prefers to write on his master's palm to communicate with him. Please note: The early chapters focus at length on raising the child. There is no romance between the disciple and his master before the disciple comes of age. The master and his former cultivation partner have no romantic relationship or intimate contact, only hatred. Switch, no preference. Sorry if that's a dealbreaker. This is not a toxic romance about a scum partner and their masochistic lover. Circumstances force their hand in some ways. The master's feelings take a while to catch up, but the master and disciple are indeed mutually devoted. The main story is told from both characters' perspectives, but the dual-perspective tag was omitted to preserve the switch tag. Theme: No matter what happens, face it with a smile.
