Senior Brother

Yun Zheng was the child of the founding elder of the Yunxian Sect. After the elder died, the sect began to decline, and all its hopes rested on Yun Zheng. Everyone in the sect treated him like their own child and taught him their secret movement techniques. Unfortunately, the founding elder's spiritual aptitude had not been passed down to Yun Zheng. Despite years of grueling cultivation, he still could not ascend.

There was someone else in the sect with the greatest spiritual aptitude. To surpass him, Yun Zheng challenged him again and again, winning by a narrow margin every time. Yun Zheng thought his cultivation was good enough, but when he tried to ascend, that person defeated him.

Only then did he realize that the other man had been hiding his true abilities all along.

"Pei Xuan, you despicable little..." The Yunxian Sect's fortunes had run out, and Yun Zheng left the sect, determined to be at odds with his senior brother Pei Xuan. Everyone said Yun Zheng had a bad temper, but they did not know that he had left the sect in a panic, fleeing for his life.

Pei Xuan accidentally discovered a secret: the son of a sect elder could become pregnant.

Yun Zheng was so pretty and alluring that it was hard to tell if he was a man or a woman. Knowing how ambitious he was, and how he had trained for years to restore the Yunxian Sect's glory despite lacking the spiritual aptitude, Pei Xuan found him a way forward: dual cultivation.

When he finally held the man he had coveted for years and laid him on the bed, Pei Xuan understood what the greatest pleasure in the world meant.

But afterward, the man realized it had all been a ruse and fled the sect on unsteady legs.

Years later, Yun Zheng's cultivation had reached great heights. At the Ascension Ceremony, he saw Pei Xuan seated on the platform that would decide whether he could ascend to immortality, dressed in a black cloak.

Pei Xuan toyed with his wine cup, running his fingertips over it bit by bit, making Yun Zheng blush furiously in the middle of the ceremony.

Behind the hall, before Yun Zheng could escape, the cloak wrapped around him. A warm body pressed against his back, and the man's voice whispered temptingly, "Did seven days and seven nights make your belly swell?"

Yun Zheng held his breath, a long sword trembling in his hand.

"Did it?" Pei Xuan's palm rested on Yun Zheng's lower abdomen as he murmured in his ear, "The seed of a despicable little man."
