Reborn: No Longer a Sacrificial Lamb of a Master

[Reborn Protagonist Who Wants to Lie Flat VS His Smiling-Outside, Dark-Within Disciple]

In his previous life, Shen Xiyu was the sect master of Qianshan Sect. He devoted himself entirely to the sect. He trained his young disciples strictly, worked tirelessly to reform the declining sect, rushed to help his fellow disciples whenever they were in trouble, and fought with all his might to uphold justice against demons.

In the end, everyone despised him:

The people of Qianshan hated his strictness and lack of warmth, clamoring for a new sect master.

His fiancee thought he was old-fashioned and dull, and secretly found someone else.

His disciples complained that he never gave them a moment to breathe and only ever made them work. Despite all his efforts, his achievements were mediocre.

They joined forces to kill him at the Xuanming Cliff.

And after he died, his beloved disciple dug up his bones, ground them to dust, and had them burned by ten thousand ghosts.

Reborn once more, Shen Xiyu saw things differently.

If they wanted a new sect master, a new partner, and a new master, then let them. There was no need to force them to stay.

Shen Xiyu resigned from all his posts as sect master of Qianshan, took over the declining Beast Taming Sect, and raised a whole bunch of adorable spirit beasts. He occasionally taught part-time at the Jixia Academy, adopted a handsome younger brother, and began living a wonderfully carefree life.

If there's no place for me here, there's always somewhere else.

Later, Shen Xiyu's spirit beasts were selling for a million each at minimum, and everyone was begging to get one. With their help, he went on to save the entire cultivation world!

The Jixia Academy cheered wildly for Shen Xiyu:

"Look this way, my idol!" "My idol, I've been waiting for you!"

And at his side was a well-behaved, gentle young man with a handsome face.

"Big Brother, I'd gladly die for you!"

The people of Qianshan had always thought Shen Xiyu couldn't live without them. Only after they lost the debate, and Qianshan descended into chaos, did they realize the truth: they were the ones who couldn't live without Shen Xiyu.

But one day, then two, then three...

They never saw their sect master Shen again.

And now,

his beloved disciple, his fiancee, Qianshan Sect, and even the entire cultivation world panicked.

"Sect Master Shen, please come back. Don't make me get on my knees and beg you."

"Master, I was wrong. Please look at me."

"Xiyu, you're the only person I've ever loved. Please come back."

They wept and begged desperately...

But sorry, once you've lost someone, they're gone for good.
