In his previous life, Shen Huai was an illustrious business magnate adored by all. After waking up one day, he found himself inside a male-oriented novel about a protagonist's rise to power, as a cannon-fodder tool who gives the protagonist a secret manual and then disappears.
What a joke. He thinks Shen Huai is fit to be his stepping stone?
Shen Huai saved the protagonist, who was on the brink of death, breathed life into him, and taught him a cultivation technique.
Seven years passed. Shen Huai raised a cool, bamboo-like young genius with his own hands, then broke his pride with those same hands. Hatred now outweighed admiration in the young man's eyes, yet he still had to bow and kneel before Shen Huai.
Shen Huai contentedly patted his head. Good disciple, your master wants you to be the most obedient dog at his side.
But the little dog only seemed obedient. Rebellious underneath, he secretly cultivated an evil technique, hoping to practice dual cultivation with Shen Huai and seize his power.
Shen Huai couldn't let him have his way. He turned the tables and thoroughly devoured the protagonist, while the jade-like young man stifled his moans beneath him.
Shen Huai licked the blood from the corner of his lips and smiled, satisfied and wicked. "Good disciple, you look pretty cute when you kiss, too."
The next day, his disciple, drained of his power, got dressed and ran away. But a love curse had been placed on them both, forcing them to make love once every seven days.
With his power fully restored, Shen Huai chased him to the Martial Arts Tournament. There, he found the hall silent, countless old acquaintances bowing their heads in fear as they tremulously called him the Venerable Zhu Xue.
The cultivation world's only half-deity, a star of calamity, aloof and arrogant. Rumor had it that his parents were dead, his mentor had died suddenly, and all three of his disciples had betrayed him. He had supposedly fallen many years ago.
Today, he had returned.

A legend circulated throughout the Three Realms: the cultivation world's greatest, Venerable Zhu Xue, and the Demon King Li Qianxuan were mortal enemies.
The two had fought for ten days and ten nights, shaking the Three Realms. A blood moon hung in the sky as their battle raged from the heavens to the underworld. When they fell into the River of Oblivion, they somehow awakened the Soul Tree, which had not appeared for a thousand years.
The Soul Tree ensnared their minds. Afterward, one remained unconscious for hundreds of years, while the other woke with a drastically changed temperament, transforming from a charming, amorous Venerable into a cold-hearted cultivator of the Ruthless Dao. He captured children with spiritual roots from all over and raised them as furnaces. During his heavenly tribulation, his three disciples joined forces to assassinate him, and he vanished without a trace.
Years later, Venerable Zhu Xue returned once more.
The unconscious Demon King Li Qianxuan also miraculously awoke, leading an army of hundreds of thousands from the demon realm to surround the Venerable's residence.
Just as the Three Realms expected war between the immortals and demons to break out at any moment, Li Qianxuan stepped out from the army with a slightly rounded belly, declaring that he was pregnant and demanding an explanation from Venerable Zhu Xue.
This became the strangest story in the Three Realms.
P.S. He's not pregnant. The shou is just messing around.
