Blackened, unhinged, scheming-tea seme x a sharp-tongued, fickle, irresistible uke who abandoned him
Gu Xingyan, the Daoist heir of Wanxu Sect, issues a bounty: Anyone who injures Bai Heng can claim one thousand high-grade spirit stones with a recording stone as proof. Anyone who captures Bai Heng alive will receive one million high-grade spirit stones.
The whole cultivation world erupts at the news.
After all, a hundred years ago, the two were close friends everyone envied. When Bai Heng defected from Wanxu Sect, Gu Xingyan even knelt in the main hall for seven days to plead on his behalf.
Now they'd fallen out? And so completely? Everyone could smell the gossip.
One thrill-seeker with a death wish asks Gu Xingyan about it. He lets out a cold laugh:
"A hundred years ago, Bai Heng fawned over me and wouldn't leave me alone because he wanted to join Wanxu Sect. I thought he was sincere with me, so I treated him with all my heart. I reforged his spiritual roots and gave him a heaven-grade spirit artifact..."
"And what did he do? He defected from Wanxu Sect and made me look bad on both sides, then turned around and joined the Demon Sect as its young master. His followers even claimed I was jealous of his exceptional talent and had repeatedly framed him, leaving him no choice..."
"He's a despicable man. I must have been blind to help him so wholeheartedly."
Everyone is shocked by his words: Bai Heng really is a piece of work.
But when the rumors reach Bai Heng himself, all he can do is put a question mark over Gu Xingyan's head.
He can't take it. No man could.
He immediately issues his own bounty, complete with a lengthy statement:
"Gu Xingyan, stop spewing bullshit and twisting the truth. I fawned over you and wouldn't leave you alone? What a joke."
"Wasn't it you who praised my looks and gentle disposition, then insisted I join Wanxu Sect? Wasn't it you who showered me with compliments and begged me a thousand times to take that heaven-grade spirit artifact? And weren't you the one who sent me messages again and again, saying you missed me after we'd been apart for just two days?"
"And a hundred years ago, in that secret realm, you took advantage of me being unconscious from poison and bit my lips. Don't think I didn't know. Wasn't it because you'd been in love with me for ages and couldn't have me?"
"And let's not even get started on when we cultivated dual cultivation... You'd better watch yourself."
Everyone: Huh?
