Original title: The Whole Immortal Capital Knows You Two Are Mortal Enemies
A seemingly cold and heartless bottom who is actually tenderhearted x a seemingly vicious and ruthless top who is actually clingy
In short: one of them changed so much and has a secret identity, while the other changed even more. From the other's perspective, even their gender changed. Neither recognizes the other, and only after their identities are revealed do they learn that they were each other's long-time cherished loves.
Blurb:
1.
Xiao Yanzhi, an otherworldly master who came to the Immortal Capital under a secret identity to search for scattered souls.
He thought that someone like him, who had lived in seclusion far from the world for years, untouched by worldly concerns and with a distant temperament, would never end up clashing with anyone in the Immortal Capital.
But not long after arriving, he had an enemy, and one whose cultivation was nearly as strong as his.
Baffled by such a formidable opponent, Xiao Yanzhi asked the person across from him, "I've never shown my face in the Immortal Capital before. May I ask where this hatred of yours comes from?"
The other person narrowed their smiling eyes and replied with malicious glee, "You're too handsome. I couldn't stand you from the very first glance. How's that for a reason?"
Xiao Yanzhi: "..."
Not good at all.
Only later did Xiao Yanzhi learn that the person hadn't taken issue with him for no reason. They were targeting the secret identity he was using.
2.
After arriving in the Immortal Capital, Xiao Yanzhi didn't miss a single clue about the souls, but he still hadn't made any progress in finding them.
His actual mission was going nowhere. Instead, the nemesis of his secret identity had latched onto him like a stubborn dog-skin plaster.
Today they'd threaten him. Tomorrow they'd fight him. He had to admit, the nemesis of his secret identity was pretty dedicated to the role.
Xiao Yanzhi didn't think much of it. If the other person provoked him, he'd fight back. If they left him alone, he'd focus on searching for souls.
Until one day, he suddenly realized that his nemesis was also the beloved little disciple he'd cherished for years.
Xiao Yanzhi: "...?"
Looking at his nemesis, who stood half a head taller than him and whose eyes occasionally flashed with a fierce glint, Xiao Yanzhi was dumbfounded.
#My spoiled little disciple has become someone whose name makes people tremble
#No, it's one thing for their personality to be different, but why doesn't their gender match either? Unless he remembered wrong, his disciple was a delicate little girl!
3.
After Xiao Yanzhi learned that his nemesis was also his precious disciple, he began avoiding the other's provocations. He couldn't bring himself to fight his precious disciple. In fact, when the other person was in danger, he even stepped forward and shielded them.
Strangely, the other person stopped picking fights with him after that.
Everyone outside said they were mortal enemies with a blood feud, but in reality, their relationship was fairly cordial.
Xiao Yanzhi had always thought they would continue getting along peacefully like this.
Until one day, after failing to find the scattered souls for too long, he suffered a backlash and leaned weakly against his nemesis's back.
He couldn't help teasing the other person. "Didn't you say you'd hated me from the moment we met? Wouldn't now be the perfect time to strike?"
Nemesis: "That was all a lie. The truth is, I fell for you at first sight."
Xiao Yanzhi didn't even have time to be shocked before his nemesis, no, his precious disciple, asked him with red-rimmed eyes:
"Master, are you going to abandon me again?"
Xiao Yanzhi: "..." I didn't. I wouldn't. Don't get the wrong idea.
Reader's guide:
1. The top and bottom are devoted to each other from beginning to end. The bottom has a secret identity at first, and neither recognizes the other, so they genuinely don't get along.
2. The top does not dress as a woman. The bottom simply mistakes him for a woman, though the bottom does have a cross-dressing scene, hehe.
3. At first, the bottom has lived in seclusion far from the world for years, so he's distant and seems like a cool beauty. Note: that's only how he seems. After interacting with the world, he'll gradually become more warm-hearted.
4. The romance isn't angsty, though the background may be a little tragic.
More to come. Enjoy reading, everyone!
