The Venerable Master Is Really Busy

Zuo Nianci had no parents. He seemed to have appeared out of nowhere at an orphanage, and since no one thought it strange, he was allowed to stay.

When he was a little older, his exceptional talent caught the eye of a kind person who adopted him.

His adoptive father was an old traditional Chinese doctor who taught him how to heal others every day with a stern, unsmiling face. In that environment, Zuo Nianci grew into a cheerful, outgoing person who always wore a bright smile.

Perhaps it was just his little trick for enjoying life.

After all, that pretty face of his could spare him a lot of trouble.

His carefree life hadn't lasted long when,

just as he thought his days would remain peaceful and uneventful, the little stone hanging around his neck carried him away from this world.

Back in the world, Zuo Nianci had no choice but to maintain the persona of a distant Sword Venerable as he arrived in the cultivation realm.

Aside from keeping up his act in front of other people, he threw the cultivation world's main storyline completely off course.

Zuo Nianci blinked and smiled innocently. "I guess I really do have great taste. I casually picked up a poor little thing, and he turned out to be the male lead."

Heaven's Will: Hmph! I don't believe you! (Clenches fist.)

So Heaven's Will spitefully followed the original plot and threw the male and female leads into a "small world" ahead of schedule, hoping to put their romance back on track.

Zuo Nianci couldn't find his disciple. Considering Ji Yantian's unbelievably terrible luck, life in the small world was probably going to be rough for him. Zuo Nianci couldn't help worrying.

Besides, he had nothing left to do in the cultivation realm. Life had become dreadfully boring.

So he decided to leave behind a puppet to fool Heaven's Will, while secretly following them to the small world to experience a new life.

And perhaps look after his disciple, too?

(Bottom's point of view)

Ji Yantian was the cultivation clan's favored genius on the Eastern Continent. One day, he lost his cultivation. The people who had once looked up to him, his fellow disciples, his fiancée, and even good-for-nothings, all came to kick him while he was down.

He had always known people could be cold, but he never expected that everything was a lie.

After twice escaping death, just as all hope was shattered...

"Huh?" A white-robed immortal descended before him like a god from the heavens. "Whose child is this? How did you end up in such a state?"

The immortal's clear, gentle laughter brought him back to life.

That person was his one and only master, the one he'd searched for tirelessly, the one he held deep in his heart.
