As the two acknowledged young geniuses of Lichen Palace, Jiang Xingyun and Gu Xifeng have the same exceptional talent and the same pride. They've always disliked each other and secretly competed.
After completing a few missions together, Jiang Xingyun's opinion of Gu Xifeng improved a little. He decided that Gu Xifeng wasn't so bad after all, and even gave him a rare smile.
Gu Xifeng stared, completely transfixed.
The next day, the young man passionately began pursuing Jiang Xingyun.
Jiang Xingyun: ...
Before he could sort out his own feelings, the two of them fell into an enemy trap during a mission. Gu Xifeng risked his life to save him, taking a hundred arrows through his heart before his body fell into the underground inferno.
The young man's passionate love was frozen in that moment, becoming a cold moonlight that would never leave Jiang Xingyun's heart.
After several years of grieving, Jiang Xingyun's master foisted a child on him, saying he'd found him on the road and was giving him to Jiang Xingyun to play with. Jiang Xingyun didn't want to bother with the child, but the boy tugged at his sleeve and flashed a bright smile that seemed familiar. Moved, Jiang Xingyun took him as his disciple.
Eight years later, Jiang Xingyun encountered the people who had killed Gu Xifeng again. Their leader was wrapped from head to toe in a hooded cloak, radiating a ghostly aura. His face was impossible to make out.
Seeing his enemy again made Jiang Xingyun's eyes blaze with fury. He attacked with a lethal move, but the man didn't even dodge, taking the sword head-on. Then he walked toward Jiang Xingyun step by step, his voice urgent and trembling: "Have I... met you somewhere before?"
Little disciple: I have a friend who seems to have fallen for his master, but the master has a white moonlight he can't forget. What... should my friend do?
Gu Xifeng: Urgent! I came back to life and found out the person I love has a new sweetheart. That person is younger than me and better at winning people over. What should I do?

1. Gu Xifeng is the little disciple, and the little disciple is Gu Xifeng. When he died, one fragment of his soul flew away. So this is a split-soul top. The soul will eventually reunite, but before that, there will be a lot of mutual jealousy.
2. Because he's missing part of his soul, there will be an amnesia arc.
3. Sweet and cool puppy / gloomy ghostly top x cool, violent beauty bottom. One-on-one, happy ending.
4. The top is as tough as his dick. Even when he's stabbed clean through and bleeding all over, he doesn't care. But as soon as his wife sheds a tear, he panics. One tear falls into his mouth and he behaves.

Your wife is looking for you. You are also looking for your wife. Why is it not considered a two-way trip?
