The Immortal Venerable Has Two Beloveds

[A first attempt at this style in a beginner's village. The outline for this book is actually nowhere near finished, but I'm short on experience, money, and inspiration. In the future, I might find a way to overhaul and rewrite it, or just start a new book.]

Pre-release blurb for The Cultivation World's Number One Wage Slave is at the very bottom~

[Complete]

After Bai Yu suffered the destruction of his family, he became a primordial spirit. By a twist of fate, he possessed the eye of a blind man.

As long as this frail, sickly blind man cultivated diligently and improved his inner power, Bai Yu could reconstruct his physical body.

As long as... as long as...

Who could have guessed that the blind man, Nan Xijiu, the dignified son of the sect leader, would have so little standing, constantly being ostracized and reviled?

The guy can't see. At this rate, when will he ever make it far on the path of cultivation? Bai Yu couldn't take it anymore.

"Idiot! Even if you can't see, can't you hear? They're just deceiving you!"

Nan Xijiu froze. In the pitch-black world before his eyes, he asked, "Young master, who are you?"

Bai Yu was stunned. "...You can hear me?"

"...I'm your eyeball. I came to life."

To regain his freedom as soon as possible, Bai Yu helped Nan Xijiu see the way and recognize people, cut down traitors, and fight monsters...

With Bai Yu's help, the "good-for-nothing" everyone had looked down on became a true heaven-blessed prodigy.

Nan Xijiu was no longer a blind pretty face. He regained his sight and became the most revered cultivator in the cultivation world.

Bai Yu also discovered that Nan Xijiu seemed able to see through him.

If he wanted to see white magnolias, the next moment Nan Xijiu would personally travel thousands of miles to find them.

If he wanted to visit the Flower-Piled House, the next moment Nan Xijiu, with his transcendent looks, would enter the establishment and make headlines across the cultivation world.

Gradually, Bai Yu realized that this guy really could hear his thoughts?

Having come to a great realization, Bai Yu decided to fake his death and take revenge without leaving a trace. With astonishing determination, he even lied through his inner monologue.

At last, Bai Yu was able to reconstruct his physical body.

That day, Bai Yu put on a grand performance of a tearful parting. Only after leaving Nan Xijiu did he let himself praise his own acting.

He thought Nan Xijiu would still be as calm as a dead pond, and would readily accept the departure of his living accessory.

He didn't know that Nan Xijiu had sat motionless at the place of his death for a long time, his eyes growing dim and lifeless, as though he had gone blind all over again.

After successfully faking his death, Bai Yu didn't finish reconstructing his body until seven years later. When he returned to the cultivation world, the first thing he did was seek revenge on his enemies.

Only after avenging his family did he learn that Nan Xijiu had been waiting for someone all along.

Only then did he realize that he had given Nan Xijiu not only a bright future and peerless cultivation, but also an unattainable dream.

--

Nan Xijiu can see and hear Bai Yu's memories and inner thoughts.

"I'm your eyeball. I came to life."

No, you're not.

You're Bai Yu, the surviving son of the Bai family, who crawled out from beneath a pile of corpses.

Nan Xijiu discovers that Bai Yu is a very contradictory and fascinating person, and decides to tease him.

Nan Xijiu: He insults me to my face, but secretly he has feelings for me!

Until one day, he clearly hears Bai Yu sneer inwardly.

His primordial spirit scattered, his soul utterly destroyed...

It seems his star really has fallen.

[Outwardly cold and unfeeling, but actually a mischievous black-to-white shou x blind, beautiful, strong, and tragically doomed gong who convinces himself the other guy loves him]

Reader advisory:

Redemption and romance, three parts angst and seven parts sweetness.

As a primordial spirit, the shou can possess anyone, and he's also ridiculously overpowered.

The gong will regain his sight.

The setting means there will be a lot of inner monologue. If that's not your thing, please read with caution.

Please don't offer writing advice. If you drop the book, please don't come back to tell me. Extreme gong or shou fans, please be advised that this isn't for you. Beginner writing ahead. Please read civilly and help create a positive writing and reading environment.

Pre-release:

Before Yin Yuansheng died, he had accumulated immeasurable merit and earned the chance to choose a new life for himself.

He transmigrated into a cultivation novel as the leader of the demonic sect, bound to a "Do Good Deeds" System, and brought his whole body with him.

No cultivation, no golden core, just an ordinary mortal body.

Even so, he spent every day working for the cultivation world's System.

[In sixteen years, the villain will come here to take your life. Accumulate enough kindness points before he arrives, and you'll get the chance to choose a new life and start over!]

During the sixteen years Yin Yuansheng spent working, he started by persuading the demonic cultivators in the demonic sect to do good deeds.

The demonic cultivators staged a mass revolt in the main hall:

"We're not doing it! We want to burn, kill, and plunder!"

Facing a group of demonic cultivators who could easily crush him to death, Yin Yuansheng slammed the table with great authority. "Are my words meaningless?"

Instantly, the hall fell silent. No one dared object again.

On the surface, he was the Demon Venerable himself, capable of destroying a city with a flick of his finger.

In reality, he was so terrified on his first day on the job that he turned away and secretly shed a few tiny pearls.

Yin Yuansheng: Every one of these people looks vicious and terrifying QAQ!

Yin Yuansheng had no fighting ability whatsoever, and knew full well he was a paper tiger. Every day, he was on tenterhooks, afraid someone would assassinate him.

Fortunately, he had a trustworthy subordinate. When it came to fighting, that was best left to someone capable.

It wasn't until his subordinate pinned him to the bed and sealed his acupoints that Yin Yuansheng finally realized, in utter horror:

This subordinate was up to no good!

--

As the noble leader of the demonic sect, Si Qi woke up one day to find himself reduced to an unknown nobody, while an unknown person had taken his place.

What's more, no one thought anything was wrong. Not a single person recognized him anymore.

Si Qi immediately decided to assassinate the current leader and reclaim what was his.

He snuck into the Demon Venerable's room at night and raised his dagger, about to strike, when a clap of thunder rang out. The next moment, the impostor Demon Venerable threw himself into Si Qi's arms, trembling with fear.

Si Qi: Him??

And so, for no apparent reason, he embarked on the path of cleaning up after this good-for-nothing Demon Venerable.

Si Qi: Fine, fine, then I'll take you as compensation :)

A timid little good-for-nothing who looks ferocious shou x a real Demon Venerable gong who seems hard to handle and really is hard to handle

Theme: Fate may be hard to defy, but trust in the power of a tiny spark.
