These arcs should take about ten chapters to finish. If you're interested, don't miss out!

[The unserious blurb]

After transmigrating from the interstellar age, Lou Shuangzui thought he was just a supporting character in a pure-love cultivation novel. But after following his master up the mountain and meeting the senior brothers and sisters from each peak, he realized he had transmigrated into a crossover world.

His cool second junior brother would one day be forced into a relationship by a disciple who turned evil. His flirtatious, amorous third junior brother would one day be taken advantage of by a wolfish disciple. His gentle, courteous fourth junior brother would one day fall in love with his own disciple...

So you're all targeting members of the same sect!

The future sect leader, his senior brother, closed his notebook with a thud and smiled darkly. Then he turned and saw their peerlessly elegant master.

Well, actually, he could understand.

Blinded by his master's beauty, Lou Shuangzui couldn't help thinking so.

But after sending off his 10,086th "disciple," who had come to challenge him and make a move on his junior brother...

Lou Shuangzui (furious supporting character)

To wake his sleeping master so he could get off the job sooner, Lou Shuangzui decided to take a desperate gamble. If his master couldn't wake up because he lacked spiritual energy, would dual cultivation do the trick?

"Shuangzui... you..."

"Master." Lou Shuangzui's fingertips brushed his master's trembling lips, his voice tender and affectionate. "You're awake."

Vines wound tightly around them, leaving no space between them.

A sharp pain came from the side of his neck, leaving a bloody bite mark.

Lou Shuangzui's eyes narrowed with pain, but his smile grew more bewitching. "That hurts... Master, will you bite me again?"

[The serious blurb]

Lou Shuangzui was once the leader of a mercenary alliance in the interstellar age. After transmigrating, he thought he had returned to ancient Earth ten thousand years in the past, reincarnated as a prince in a crumbling feudal dynasty.

Then the northern tribes finally broke into the capital, and thirteen-year-old Lou Shuangzui fled all the way to Jiangnan.

By a stream running past little bridges, white pear blossoms fell like snow, though they were not snow. A handsome, white-haired immortal stood beneath a tree with his hands behind his back. One glance over his shoulder was enough to make Lou Shuangzui remember him for ten million years.

The man smiled warmly and held out a hand to Lou Shuangzui. "My name is Lian Chaoxi. Would you like to be my disciple?"

Only then did Lou Shuangzui realize that he had transmigrated into a pure-love cultivation novel he had casually glanced at for fun in his previous life.

He was the supporting-character head disciple and future sect leader to the protagonist shou. Whenever the protagonist shou was framed, the protagonist gong defected to the demon realm, or one of the supporting characters ran into trouble, he would step up and shoulder the burden of the sect. Meanwhile, this beautiful master before him, as lovely as a painting, had become little more than a backdrop early on in the story. Whenever the novel mentioned him, it was always with the same line: If only Master were still here.

Then let Master stay.

He took one long look at the peerlessly elegant immortal and bowed.

"Your disciple Lou Shuangzui pays respects to Master."

"What characters make up your name?"

"The hall is full of guests, drunk on flowers; one sword chills fourteen provinces."

"A fine name."

[Reader's guide]

1. A controlling, venom-tongued, beautiful shou disciple x a gentle, upright gong master who nevertheless covers for his own disciple.

2. The shou is a mild heartthrob, and not exactly a good person.

3. Written to indulge the author's tastes. The shou enjoys pain, takes the initiative, and is willing to face his own desires. He's not an innocent boy who gets embarrassed by the slightest touch.

[Worldbuilding]

1. Cultivation levels: Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Spirit Transformation, Void Return, Dao Integration, and Tribulation Transcendence.

2. Demon Realm: Any race can become demonic; those who do become residents of the Demon Realm. Immortal Realm: Humans cultivate immortality and integrate with the Dao. Yao Realm: Yao cultivate and shed their former forms. Underworld: Governed by the cycle of reincarnation and responsible for the souls of the dead. Ghost Realm: Souls that do not enter the cycle of reincarnation and have abandoned the Underworld's order.

3. Besides the main realms above, there are three thousand minor worlds, collectively called the Human Realm.

[Please note]

1. The shou is both flirtatious and heartless. Before committing to anyone, he's a player. He flirts and may have fairly intimate physical contact, but doesn't go all the way. He was sexually experienced in his previous life but is chaste in this one; the gong is chaste.

2. This is a fictional world, though some era names are inspired by history.

3. Some aspects of the worldbuilding draw on primordial myths, but most of it is original.

4. The story contains a slight preference for the shou, who also has a bit of a heartthrob quality.

5. If you'd be so kind as to read, please give it a little star!

Theme: Everyone deserves to be the protagonist of their own life. No one is born to be a background character.
