(Cool, aloof CEO bottom who knows how to bait × younger, overpowered golden-boy puppy top)
Spiritual qi has revived on Blue Star. Lin Qingmu, the Lin Group's CEO, is paralyzed from the waist down and unable to awaken an ability. His shares are seized by the second branch of the family, and he is kicked out of the company.
One day, while Lin Qingmu is undergoing physical therapy at his villa, a strangely dressed, blood-soaked young man falls from the sky and lands in his hot spring pool.
Lin Qingmu raises a laser cannon and points it at the young man's head.
But in the next moment, he gets a good look at the young man's flawless, handsome face and tall, striking figure.
His breath catches for a moment. Lin Qingmu changes his mind and takes the man in.
-
The young man is called Ye Xuance. He claims to be the chief disciple of the Sword Sect in the Cultivation Realm, born with a sword bone, but wicked men sealed his cultivation, and after falling off a cliff, he somehow ended up on Blue Star.
"Your jade pendant is an ancient divine artifact. I sensed it, and it activated a spatial passage that brought me here."
Lin Qingmu hands him the pendant. "Come on, activate it again."
Ye Xuance earnestly tries several times, but fails. His expression turns awkward.
Lin Qingmu smiles knowingly and lets him stay anyway. After all, he's after the man's face, not his brains.
The trouble is, Ye Xuance takes his role too seriously. He clings to Lin Qingmu all day, urging him to cultivate, and even tells him he can heal his legs.
Lin Qingmu gives him noncommittal answers while coaxing him aboard a black-market starship bound for an extraterrestrial planet. He has no power or influence now, and only by getting far away from Blue Star can he keep them both safe.
Unexpectedly, space pirates hijack the ship midway through the journey. Just as everyone's lives are hanging by a thread, Ye Xuance steps forward and knocks out the A+-rank ability user leading the pirates with a single punch.
He even pierces the enemy ship and tears it apart with his bare hands.
Everyone: How terrifying!
Lin Qingmu: Hm...?
-
After clearing up their misunderstanding, Lin Qingmu finally begins cultivating. His progress is astonishing, and his relationship with Ye Xuance grows steadily closer.
But someone's "straight man" reactions are just too much...
"Brother Lin, you're so handsome."
"Brother Lin, you smell so nice."
"I want to be with you forever, Brother Lin."
"I'm a sword cultivator. I don't need a cultivation partner. Having one would only slow down my sword-drawing speed."
Lin Qingmu: All right, then.
-
Later, the two return to the Cultivation Realm. Lin Qingmu's constitution unexpectedly manifests while they are cultivating, and Ye Xuance finally tells him the truth: Lin Qingmu has the rarest and most potent furnace constitution in the Cultivation Realm.
After hearing him out, Lin Qingmu gazes quietly at Ye Xuance with his cool, phoenix-shaped eyes. "Is that so? I thought it was the stuff you put in my wine that did it."
Ye Xuance: ?!
All he did was sneak in a spirit fruit that Lin Qingmu had been saving for later.
Just as he is about to deny it, Lin Qingmu reaches out first and gently strokes his conspicuously nervous face. "So you didn't do it because you like me, and you don't want to cultivate together with me either, right?"
Looking at Lin Qingmu's refined, handsome face, warm yet alluring, Ye Xuance's mind goes blank.
After a long pause, just as Lin Qingmu is about to feel disappointed, Ye Xuance blushes and murmurs, "I do. I've always wanted to..."
Lin Qingmu: ?
Before he can finish being surprised, Ye Xuance pulls him into a fierce kiss.
Lin Qingmu: Mmm...
Turns out that someone may be shy, but he's strong too.

Coming Soon: I Awakened Before My Beautiful, Tragic Adoptive Brother Fell
Su Mutang is the adopted son of the Yu family, a minor clan in the Cultivation Realm. Gentle by nature and delicate in appearance, he lost his birth mother early, but after the Yu family took him in, his adoptive parents doted on him, and his adoptive elder brother cherished him above all else.
But one day, Su Mutang wakes up and discovers that his adoptive brother, Yu Heting, is a beautiful, tragic cannon-fodder character in a storybook.
In the story, Yu Heting, born with a sword bone and extraordinary talent, is actually the destined vessel for possession by a Nascent Soul patriarch of the Carefree Sect. He fails to escape and is tortured to death, and his sword bone falls into the hands of the protagonist, who profits from the situation. The Yu family is wiped out as a result.
·
After learning of Yu Heting and the Yu family's tragic fate, Su Mutang stops coasting through life. He cultivates diligently while searching for a way to prevent Yu Heting from being possessed.
One day, the Tianqi Secret Realm opens, and it contains soul-stabilizing grass. For Yu Heting's sake, Su Mutang disguises himself and enters.
Inside the realm, Su Mutang teams up with a demonic cultivator to secure the grass, but accidentally spends a night of passion with him.
Knowing that humans and demons are on different paths, Su Mutang leaves the secret realm the next day with the soul-stabilizing grass.
The soul-stabilizing pill is successfully refined. Su Mutang personally delivers it to Yu Heting, but cultivators at the sect recognize his true identity and tell him who his birth parents are.
Just like that, Su Mutang is inexplicably taken back to his birth family, then inexplicably becomes engaged to the Sword Venerable's closed-door disciple.
Helpless, Su Mutang goes to the Sword Sect to try to end the engagement. But the genius sword cultivator secretly takes him to his room, removes his disguise, and reveals the familiar face of the demonic cultivator.
Su Mutang: ???
The demonic cultivator: "Marry me and complete the mission, and I'll help your adoptive brother leave the Carefree Sect."
After agonizing over it for a long time, Su Mutang agrees.
·
Later, the demonic cultivator becomes the Demon Venerable, and the Sword Venerable's chief disciple becomes the Sword Venerable. Together, they create a fusion cultivation technique and unite the Cultivation Realm.
In the Demon Palace.
Su Mutang looks at the Demon Venerable, who has united the two realms and fulfilled his ambition, and asks for a divorce so he can go home.
Unexpectedly, the Demon Venerable removes his disguise again. This time, the face he reveals is Yu Heting's.
Su Mutang is utterly stunned.
He tries to run, but is caught and brought back.
Yu Heting presses a hand to the back of his neck and murmurs, "The Demon Venerable can have you, the Sword Venerable can have you, but your elder brother can't?"
Su Mutang: ...Help! Why is this nothing like the storybook?

(Extra Scene)
From childhood, Su Mutang always thought that if he ever found a husband, he would want someone like Yu Heting. But he also thought that someone as aloof and self-disciplined as Yu Heting probably had no need for a cultivation partner.
So Su Mutang figured he had no need to marry, either.
Until he met that taciturn demonic cultivator in the secret realm. His looks were utterly ordinary, but his eyes were strikingly like Yu Heting's.
One night, drunk, Su Mutang couldn't help telling the demonic cultivator the secret of his storybook.
After hearing him out, the demonic cultivator asked, "Then why not tell your brother?"
Su Mutang closed his eyes and slumped against a tree. "He'd definitely think I'd gone crazy."
The demonic cultivator gazed for a while at Su Mutang's soft, beautiful profile, then gently gathered him into his arms and sighed. "You really don't understand him at all."
Su Mutang had already fallen asleep.
