Shen Luoyi is a famously beautiful fool in the cultivation world.
He has neither talent nor the willingness to work hard. Relying on the fact that his master is the foremost figure of the Daoist sects, he flaunts his beauty and does whatever he pleases.
Then one day, his master unexpectedly dies, and the Tiansui Sect falls into decline.
His old enemies eagerly prepare to make the most beautiful man in the world, who has been swaggering around for centuries, experience the hardships of life.
His rival, who claims to have the script and know the future, gleefully tells him:
His newly accepted genius disciple is actually plotting against him. Within a hundred years, the disciple will imprison him in a room and humiliate him in every way.
The Tiansui Sect will rise to glory again and once more become the greatest sect in the cultivation world, but it will be under his precious disciple's leadership.
Shen Luoyi: !! There's a deal like that?
A socially anxious slacker, Shen Luoyi is forced to hold things together after his master's death. He looks at the mountain of sect business piled up before him, then at his disciple's handsome face. The very next day, he happily carries his little quilt to his disciple's bedroom to move in.

No one knows that Ji Yanzhi, the renowned head of the Tiansui Sect and the foremost figure of the Daoist sects, has always harbored a dark desire: he wants to hide his only disciple, Shen Luoyi, away from everyone else.
He keeps telling himself to hold back, to hold back a little longer, afraid his feelings will scare Shen Luoyi.
Until Ji Yanzhi is tricked by someone and gravely injured, his body regressing to its teenage years.
The outside world believes him dead, and his old enemies descend on the Tiansui Sect.
To protect his precious disciple at close range, Ji Yanzhi has no choice but to return in a teenager's body and become Shen Luoyi's disciple after joining him at the selection tournament.
But one day, after returning from his usual training, he finds a limp, fluffy-caterpillar-like Shen Luoyi sprawled on his bed.
Shen Luoyi: A hundred years is too long. Disciple, hurry up already. I don't want to work hard anymore, QAQ
Ji Yanzhi: !!!
Old enemy: I never thought a useless pretty face like you would endure so much humiliation for the sake of restoring your sect, even at the hands of a disciple who's clearly up to no good. Very well. Since you're so devoted and loyal, we won't stand by and do nothing!
Shen Luoyi: ...Huh?
Content notes: 1v1, both characters' first relationship, pure sugar and pure feel-good fun, seemingly older top but actually younger, the master and the disciple are the same person.
