Tentative blurb
In his previous life, Lu Xiyin was the Xuan Yuan Daoist Venerable, the greatest swordsman in the realm. Just as he was on the verge of ascending, his ungrateful disciple joined forces with various factions to kill him.
Fortunately, Lu Xiyin was lucky and was reborn. In his new life, he was a good-for-nothing at cultivation, scraping by in the cultivation world thanks to his looks.
But it seemed he'd died too messily in his previous life. Either the sect he'd founded got into trouble, or the rift in the demon realm he'd sealed started leaking again. Trouble was everywhere, and the cultivation world was such a mess that he couldn't even lie flat in peace.
He patted his level-one beginner's iron sword and sighed, forced to start cleaning up after himself.
Just as he was diligently trying to be a good person and do good deeds, his enemies from his previous life started dying mysteriously, each in a more gruesome way than the last. Everyone said the Xuan Yuan Daoist Venerable had died with unfinished business and returned as a vengeful ghost!
Lu Xiyin: ? I didn't. I swear.
When his ungrateful disciple recognized him, Lu Xiyin thought, Well, this life is over too. After he was imprisoned, he lay there like a lazy fish and waited to die. But his beloved disciple, covered in blood and looking like a demon from the underworld, came to stand before him and said, "Master, I've avenged you. Now only I remain, for you to finish off with your own hands."
Lu Xiyin: No thanks. I'm not interested.
A traditional, melodramatic master-disciple story about reconciling after a breakup. A laid-back master who lies flat, forgives everything, and follows the path of ruthless detachment x a deranged disciple. 1v1, with the pursuing top going through hell to win him back (not necessarily a hell everyone will find satisfying, but the author thinks it counts).
Theme: Keep your heart full of sunshine and look on the bright side of life
