What Should I Do When My NPC Dao Partner Shows Up at My Door?

The full-dive game "A Fairy-Tale Romance in the World of Cultivation" was all the rage, attracting countless players with its unique romance system.

As long as they met the requirements, players could become cultivation partners with any other player or NPC.

The red-clad NPC in the Abyss dungeon was every player's nightmare.

Countless players had been wiped out by him, and the game forums were full of complaints about his absurdly high combat stats.

But the moment Duan Mubai laid eyes on him, his heart started pounding.

He wasn't some overpowered NPC. He was exactly Duan Mubai's type.

Duan Mubai shamelessly and boldly pursued him, and one day, the red-clad NPC actually accepted his cultivation-partner application.

Then the game updated, and the red-clad NPC suddenly disappeared.

After quitting the game, Duan Mubai thought it had just been a failed online romance. But one day, at the heart of a storm, he saw a flash of red. With a single slash, it split the storm and came hurtling through the sky.

Black hair flying, breathtakingly beautiful, just as he had been at their first meeting.

Duan Mubai, the materialist, had never imagined he might meet Xiao Zhuyi in real life.

He had long made peace with the idea of a purely spiritual romance, but he never expected... Xiao Zhuyi would shatter the void to find him, and turn out to be a man of action.

To keep Xiao Zhuyi from causing a stir in the modern world, Duan Mubai laid down three rules.

One: no killing people on a whim or fighting violence with violence.

Two: no using magic recklessly or letting anyone find out.

Three: no kissing him without permission.

Hoping to earn a reward, Xiao Zhuyi followed the rules to the letter.

But when Duan Mubai was in danger, he still sprang into action in a fury. Red lotus flames blazed around him, making him look like a demon from the abyss.

The villains trembled in terror.

Oh no, we're not making it out of today alive.

Duan Mubai's face turned pale.

Oh no, how am I going to keep this a secret?

Xiao Zhuyi's face was full of displeasure.

Oh no, no kiss for me today!
