Chu Yu was an injured cat demon whose demonic powers had been exhausted, leaving him able to maintain only his original form. The person who found him was the second senior brother of Wushang Sect. His parents didn't love him, and neither did his sect. He was coveted, bullied, and suppressed by powerful men and women from all walks of life, becoming a stepping stone for the Son of Heaven's Path. Chu Yu was killed early on, too, with a sword through his heart.
Reborn before he was injured, Chu Yu happily packed his bags and went to find Xie Yanxue. There he saw the aloof sixteen-year-old, pure and bright as moonlight, just as he had been when they first met.
This time, when the sect's beloved little junior brother, known as the "Wuxie Sword," once again tried to take the opportunity the young man had won at the risk of his life,
Chu Yu dashed forward and swiped at the white lotus with a claw.
"This is mine!!"
Realizing he didn't have a leg to stand on, he added, like a cat, "And this person in front of you is mine too!!"
-
After the little cat he had depended on died, Xie Yanxue completely succumbed to darkness. He fell to the demonic path, settled scores with his enemies, and with a single blade slaughtered all three hundred people in his sect, before taking his own life on Qingling Peak, where he'd lived as a child.
Only after he died did he learn that this was a danmei novel called "The Heartthrob's Shura Field in the Cultivation World."
And he was the cannon-fodder villain.
All the suffering and rejection he'd endured since childhood was summed up in the original story in one brief line: "Xie Yanxue had a tragic past and an obsessive personality, and eventually fell to the demonic path."
The massacre of everyone in Wushang Sect was nothing more than a plot device to revive the little junior brother through the help of a powerful Buddhist cultivator, then push the story back onto its prescribed track.
Reborn in his youth, he thought he would simply be at the mercy of the plot all over again.
But this time, his silly little cat stood in front of him, claws bared, shouting something like, "All of you, stay away from him! He's under my protection!!"
Then he would accompany him and turn the cultivation world upside down.
Extra scene:
Xie Yanxue fell to the demonic path again and became a dreaded Demon King, but a beautiful cat demon followed at his side.
According to the water-carrying servant, the Demon King indulged the kitty in everything. He raised fish in the corpse pool and planted flowers on the mountain of bones.
Only Chu Yu knew that there was one thing the man wouldn't give in on: "Can we skip it today?"
Xie Yanxue lowered his eyes, his voice full of undisguised sorrow. "Xiao Yu, you said you wouldn't make me sad again."
Forced to give in yet again that night, Chu Yu clutched his tail, the corners of his eyes red. He still couldn't understand what not doing it had to do with making Xie Yanxue sad!!
Silly and sweet X aloof and obsessive
A sweet, satisfying romance at heart
