[Cool and aloof, pure-hearted disciple gong x stunning beauty shou with maxed-out strength]
The little butterfly had no name. It was just an ordinary butterfly, so ordinary that its whole body was pure white, without a single marking. Its companions often laughed at it.
One day, while out as usual, it came across a very strange person. He was exceptionally handsome, carrying a long sword and bearing an air of proud, frost-defying elegance.
The little butterfly fluttered its wings and curiously approached, but the next moment, all sound vanished. It had been enclosed in a shield of spiritual energy.
"Found you."
Ah! So this was a bad person!
The bad person brought it to a magnificent, ethereal residence. The people there had no wings, yet could soar through the air on their spiritual swords.
They said this was the cultivation world. They also said that their master had been searching for a white spirit butterfly for years, but it was the first one he had brought back.
Oh, so the bad person was called Master, and he had a strange hobby of collecting ugly butterflies.
The bad person gave the little butterfly a name: Lin Piaopiao.
The day it got its name, the little butterfly happily beat its wings and circled the bad person called Master several times. In its heart, it cried:
"Piaopiao, Lin Piaopiao. I like this name. Thank you, Master."
The man's expression suddenly changed. He caught the fluttering little butterfly and asked with a frown:
"What did you call me?"
"Master. Aren't you called Master?"
The little butterfly knew this person could hear its thoughts. Strictly speaking, anyone with cultivation could hear a spirit butterfly's thoughts.
It answered as though it were obvious, but the other person lowered his eyes, looking utterly dejected.
"...Anyone can call me Master, but you can't. Understand?"
The little butterfly always felt that this person was remembering something through its ugly little body.
When word got out that Venerable Yunxiao had caught a white spirit butterfly, the Demon Venerable led a force to surround the sect.
The bad person was powerful, but the Demon Venerable seemed even stronger.
Watching the man spit out mouthful after mouthful of blood, the little butterfly suddenly mustered up its tiny courage and flapped its wings, trying to fly over. But it was so small that sword energy swept it away again and again.
The little butterfly was furious, and hated its ugly little body even more. In a fit of rage, it transformed into human form!
At the same time, a transparent barrier appeared over the distant battlefield, securely enveloping the man who was spitting blood.
"Stop right there! Don't hurt him!"
The Demon Venerable turned around in delight. Looking at the youth in white, he cried out:
"Lin Piaopiao, I knew it was you!"
And the man on the other side of the barrier gazed at him with feverish devotion:
"Master, you've finally come back."
Lin Piaopiao stood there, completely bewildered.
After that day, Qingling Sect seemed to change. Visitors flocked to Master's residence, all wanting to see the newly transformed junior disciple.
The senior disciple, who had always clamored to make a butterfly specimen, shielded the young man in white and drove them away one by one.
"Why are you sending them away? Am I so ugly that people can't bear to look at me?"
The senior disciple gazed at the youth before him, unable to tear his eyes away for a long time.
"No. You're very beautiful."
The little butterfly looked at the locked courtyard gate, confusion in its eyes.
"Then why are you locking me up?"
"Because everyone wants to keep beautiful things for themselves."
[A few extra notes and ramblings]
1. This idea came to me in a flash. I'll keep working on the blurb.
2. He has memory loss early on, which leaves him emotionally detached. He'll regain his memories later, so he won't stay a silly, sweet innocent forever. He's actually a very scheming, flirtatious beauty.
(Early on, he's dazed and adorable, flirting without realizing it. Later, he'll deliberately set off a bloody reckoning.)
3. This is a story with a whole cast of admirers. The characters' one-sided crushes are all intense!
