I Died After Saving the Obsessive Male Lead

Su Qing is a veteran employee at the Transmigration Bureau.

He's the kind who's so bad at his job that he's on the verge of going broke.

Desperate to put food on the table, he steels himself and takes on a long-abandoned SSS-rank mission that no one has ever completed: transmigrating into a cultivation world to save an obsessive Immortal Lord.

Back then, no one in the cultivation world could have predicted that this unremarkable nobody was about to rewrite the fate of the entire world.

Even fewer knew that the aloof Immortal Lord would nearly choke up while reading his letters. Before they had even met, longing had already overflowed.

"Master..."

"I miss you so much..."

Our classmate Su Qing, for his part, was like: ?

He didn't get it. He didn't understand. He had no idea.

He was a model wage slave: save someone, leave, collect the reward. He never lingered in a mission world.

As for those people's feelings... Oh, sorry, they can't come out of their little worlds and punish him anyway.

He had always lived by this carefree philosophy, until his mission ended and he returned to the Transmigration Bureau to collect his reward, only to see a familiar figure sitting in his boss's chair, filled with restraint, anguish, and loneliness...

That's when Su Qing realized he might have taken things too far this time.

Ji Wunian had done many wrong things in his life.

The biggest was failing to summon the courage to stop his master from leaving all those years ago, when he found him boring.

He hadn't been brave enough to pin him to the bed, entwine himself with him day and night, and make the faithless ingrate drown in pleasure until he had no time to think of anything else.

Everyone said the Immortal Lord was free of desires. Only he knew how deep his own desires ran, and that he would never be forgiven for them in this lifetime.

So, Master...

Have you returned... to grant your wicked disciple's wish?

-

Clouds gather, heavy with rain.

Desire stirs, ready to bloom.

[Tips]

1. The character introductions make it clear: this is a story about two masters of secret identities peeling back each other's layers like an onion.

2. Yes, after three years of hard practice, the author ultimately reverted to the first draft (ahem). But I changed the order of narration, moving material that originally came later to the beginning.

3. Our goal is to spread positive energy. Enjoy reading!
