[I wrote this because I was craving a shizun gong who is the main pursuer, but got stuck later. I'll do my best with this one too. Thanks to everyone who bookmarked it, 2025.7.7]
Ru Quexian had enjoyed twenty years of smooth sailing when someone suddenly came looking for him.
"You are the reincarnation of Immortal Xiyu. You must save the Three Realms."
Ru Quexian replied, "Are you talking about me? Sorry, that's beyond my abilities. See you around."
After much arguing, Ru Quexian came away with a pile of treasures and reluctantly agreed to take a look at the cultivation world.
Then Immortal Xiyu's disciple, the current number one in the cultivation world, True Immortal Yaohui, declared his passionate love for him. Ru Quexian immediately realized things had taken a dire turn!
He sent an angry message to that person. "You didn't tell me the master and disciple were like this! No way, I can't do this. I want to go home."
That person: "...I'll pay you more. Besides, True Immortal Yaohui has even more treasures. You can swindle him... I mean, whisper sweet nothings in his ear."
Ru Quexian angrily replied, "How could I be that kind of person!"
In the end, Ru Quexian was laden with all kinds of rare treasures.
A friend asked Yu Weihui, "You really gave him all those treasures?"
Yu Weihui didn't care.
To him, Ru Quexian was the rarest treasure of all.
He was grateful that, after enduring the vicissitudes of life and the Infernal Hell, his shizun could still remain true to himself. The phoenix magpie was meant to fly freely, without restraint.
He was also grateful that they could meet again.
P.S. 1v1, with the shou's feelings for the gong being stronger
