1.

Nie Genglan was sixteen when he learned he was the true young master of a cultivation clan.

But when he returned to the Nie family, he found that his parents only favored the impostor, while his younger siblings were ashamed to have a useless mortal for an older brother.

The impostor knew he hated being touched by men, yet deliberately toyed with and humiliated him, repeatedly putting him in the wrong.

With no other choice, Nie Genglan traveled to Lingyin Sect and began his path to immortality.

He swore to cultivate and attain the Dao, so he could protect himself in this world of the strong preying on the weak.

But not long after he became an outer disciple at Lingyin Sect, the impostor and his friends bullied him and kicked him into the Infinite Demon Realm.

When he awoke, he was lying on the jade bed of a white-robed man of peerless immortal beauty.

His robes were half-open, his collarbones just visible.

The man in white opened eyes as cold as ice, holding him in an intensely intimate embrace.

Startled, Nie Genglan struggled violently, then gathered up his clothes and tried to flee.

The man in white said, "Your body is infected with the sinister aura of the Infinite Demon Realm. Dual cultivation is the only cure. Otherwise, your insides will tear apart, the skin all over your body will peel off, and you'll die in agony as countless insects devour you."

Nie Genglan stopped abruptly.

He couldn't die yet.

Until... those hands, cool and smooth as ice and jade, forcibly pressed down on his waist. Nie Genglan suddenly grabbed them, his eyes silently reddening.

At the same time, a hundred miles away at Lingyin Sect, Sword Venerable Qinghong, who was in seclusion, was battered by wave after wave...

2.

The man in white disappeared. Nie Genglan searched for him like a madman but found nothing, and could only return to his sect.

Not long afterward, news spread across the entire Liuyue Continent that the peerless Sword Venerable Qinghong intended to take a male courtesan from the mortal realm as his disciple.

Later, people saw the aloof and extraordinary Sword Venerable standing hand in hand with the male courtesan. Their sword spirits, too, entwined and lingered together without end. Beneath the brilliant light, the two figures shone dazzlingly.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

[Short scene]

At a tavern, some cultivators sneered that Nie Genglan must have used seduction to become Sword Venerable Qinghong's disciple, and must have seduced countless men along the way to get where he was.

"Filthy and shameless! You have no class!"

"How could the Sword Venerable let himself be fooled by him?"

Nie Genglan's gaze darkened. A searing, icy sword intent swept over them, sending the gossips sprawling and screaming.

"I've got what it takes to make the Sword Venerable fall for me. If you don't believe it, you're welcome to try."

That night, on the bed.

Sword Venerable Qinghong's voice was hoarse. "Who are you telling to try?"

"I didn't... Mm!"
