[A remarkably easygoing, slow-witted woman] x [A clingy ghost who'd love to drown people in his tears]
Zhao Qingxun was an odd presence in his sect.
As a medical cultivator, he had never treated anyone because of his extreme cleanliness.
As a senior brother, he struck too hard during sparring, so nobody dared challenge him.
As a handsome man, his sharp tongue and sour expression earned him not a single admirer.
Though none of that applied to Liu Zheng, she was sometimes genuinely afraid of her Third Senior Brother.
The two of them teamed up for a secret realm trial. She counted as she killed monsters, and halfway through, Third Senior Brother suddenly burst into tears. "Zhengzheng, you haven't talked to me for half an hour. QAQ"
Before Liu Zheng could reply, he turned around and slew the monster attacking them from behind, still crying. "Zhengzheng, it's so dangerous here. I'm so scared, sob sob sob >_<"
When they went down the mountain on a mission, Third Senior Brother was careless and accidentally fell victim to a secret technique of the Hehuan Sect. Clutching her sleeve, he shed tears like they cost nothing. "Zhengzheng, it hurts here, and there too. You'll help me, right? *^_^*"
Liu Zheng: ...
Every time, she gave in to Third Senior Brother's tears.
But... Liu Zheng furrowed her brow in confusion. If she remembered correctly, before she died, they were archrivals competing for the title of number one under heaven. And he didn't act like this back then, did he?
Liu Zheng died in his arms.
Zhao Qingxun held her, feeling her breath slowly fade away, his body trembling uncontrollably.
In his previous life, he had done everything he could to win Liu Zheng's favor and forge a bond with her. At last, he became the "archrival" she occasionally thought of.
But he never expected her to die just as she was about to ascend.
But it didn't matter. No matter how many times she was reincarnated, no matter whether she remembered him, he would find her, lift her up, and help her stand at the summit once more.
He just seemed to have scared her by accident?
(Actually, he hadn't.)
Liu Zheng: Sometimes I'm genuinely afraid of Third Senior Brother...
Everyone else: Yeah, we've always been scared of him. Whenever anyone gets close to you, he puts a sack over their head and beats them up. (Sobbing)
