His final step toward ascension went wrong, and the greatest cultivator in the world of cultivation, Wei Xiao, somehow transformed from a handsome and elegant Immortal Venerable into a ten-year-old boy.
The "highly esteemed" Buddhist disciple Xu Qing said this was Wei Xiao's tribulation. He needed to forget his past and start over as a child to ascend and attain the Dao.
Wei Venerable's four disciples were dumbstruck.
Question: What do you do when your master turns into a little kid? Asking online, this is urgent!
All four senior disciples were lifelong bachelors with no idea how to raise a child. So they turned their attention to Qing Yuan, their youngest fifth disciple. After all, no one understands children better than other children (?乛v乛? hehehe).
Female lead:
Because Immortal Venerable Wei Xiao was busy in seclusion, Qing Yuan had never met this so-called master in all the years since she transmigrated here. Instead, she had been raised by her grandmaster from childhood.
On the day Wei Xiao underwent his tribulation, the winds howled and clouds roiled, while Qing Yuan was lounging around with her grandmaster in his secret realm, completely unaware.
A few days later, her senior brothers brought a boy of about ten to the secret realm. Pointing at him, they said to Qing Yuan, "Here, Yuanyuan, this is your master. From now on, you're in charge of taking care of him."
Qing Yuan: ???
The young boy before her had fair skin and delicate features that hinted at a stunning future beauty, though his eyes were clear and foolish. Qing Yuan couldn't help blurting out, "Senior brothers, do I look like some brain-dead idiot to you?"
You expect me to believe whatever you say?!
PS: The male lead hasn't gone back in time to start over. He's still ridiculously powerful, and his strength will gradually return over time, but he has lost his memories at the start and will slowly recover them. The female lead was an adult in her previous life and is mature for her age, but since she was born into this world as a baby, she'll sometimes act like a child. Think of her as a relatively sensible kid.
The story mainly focuses on the female lead's growth and making up for the childhood her master missed out on in his pursuit of power.
I wrote this because I wanted to. I just want to share it with like-minded people. If you don't like the writing, content, or characters, please just say goodbye politely. The characters and plot aren't especially novel. If you come across a similar premise, with a master and disciple growing up together, it's purely a coincidence, so please don't read too much into it. This old web-novel reader hasn't come across one before~( ̄▽ ̄~)
