Lu Jiu has three secrets.
First, he was transmigrated into a fetus and was born with all his memories.
He transmigrated into the cultivation world and, from the start, won over a greedy, sickly half-immortal master with his skill at stewing goose in an iron pot. He conquered his tsundere senior brother and made a whole group of frail, disabled tutors change their minds and come around.
Second, he was born with a supernatural ability: mind reading. Simply put, he can hear everyone's inner thoughts!
The moment he joined the immortal sect, the gossip poured in, and every juicy secret was better than the last.
A powerful cultivator dresses as a woman to seduce his sworn enemy and break his enemy's heartless path!
Lu Jiu: You cultivators really get up to some wild stuff! Wait, why is that sworn enemy the junior uncle I just met?
An elegant, peerless immortal lord has a child out of wedlock, and the father is the Demon Lord he secretly stole seed from!
Lu Jiu: How thrilling! Hold on, that cinnabar mole between the Demon Lord's brows looks familiar, and he looks like my tsundere senior brother too?
A sect's young prodigy is a womanizer who cheated on eighteen people, men and women alike, and is actually a fake young master impersonating someone else.
Lu Jiu: Wait… the real young master is me? My late master was actually the legendary greatest cultivator under heaven!
And the tutors who raised him weren't frail, disabled men kindly taken in by his senior brother, either. They were all extraordinary figures.
The Sage of Go, the Pill King, the God of Cooking, a divine general of the imperial court…
Lu Jiu: Wait… are my backers really this powerful?!

His third secret is that Lu Jiu has a mysterious friend.
When he was little, he lived in a run-down temple in the countryside, while his friend lived at home. They had never met, but a pair of matching phoenix-patterned jade pendants let them talk remotely, and they stayed in touch for over a decade.
After growing up and moving to the city to enter the Tianshu Academy, Lu Jiu learned that his friend Huai Qing was the academy's number-one prodigy, had topped the Azure Cloud Rankings for ten years running, and was known as the cold and aloof, peerless beauty among immortals.
Huai Qing was handsome and kind, offered to tutor him, and was a quiet, gentle roommate who treated him with respect.
Best of all, he had no inner thoughts!
Overjoyed, Lu Jiu gave his friend his signature iron-pot stewed goose. If one goose wasn't enough, he also had sauce-brined duck!
At last, some peace and quiet! QAQ
Until one night, Huai Qing guided Lu Jiu through sword practice hand over hand. Lu Jiu lost focus and stumbled into his arms. Not only was Huai Qing not angry, a gentle smile curled his lips. Beneath the moon, his beauty outshone the clouds by a mile.
For the first time, Lu Jiu heard his inner thoughts
Little Jiu, adorable. I like him.
