[Irregular updates]
As Si Chenran lay dying, the System saved him, and they formed a contract.
At one particular disciple-selection ceremony, the System pointed to a boy who looked righteous and innocent, and said solemnly, "That person will kill you when he grows up, Host!"
Boy: ???
Seeing the killing intent flash in the Host's eyes, the System added, "He is protected by the Heavenly Dao, so you can't hurt him!"
So Si Chenran decided to take him as his disciple and keep him close.
*
The boy was the picture of a family destroyed. He became Si Chenran's disciple to avenge his family. Though surrounded by beautiful women, he stayed true to himself and resisted temptation.
Until one day, he saw his powerful master reveal a vulnerable side, and a dark thought took root in his mind...
Notes:
The master is the shou, and the disciple is the gong! Main character is the shou!
Content warnings:
1. The shou is heartless, selfish, and won't change.
2. The gong is upright and wholesome at first, but turns dark later.
3. Somewhat shou-focused.
4. There are side couples, and they're extremely melodramatic! Really, really melodramatic!
Theme: Everything is fate
