The Unorthodox Path

[An early record of someone going absolutely bonkers. Don't read, don't read. Usually updated at 9 p.m.]

Wei Xun considers himself a good person, gentle all his life.

In his previous life, he enjoyed boundless glory, was kidnapped midway through, watched his reputation crumble into ruin, and died a miserable death.

Before dying, Wei Xun said, "If I see you in my next life, I'll run as far away as I can."

In this life, he inexplicably suffered a night of disasters and calamities.

Every clue pointed to him.

With little experience of the world, Wei Xun suddenly found himself saddled with an enormous blame.

In the end, he discovered they weren't disasters and calamities.

Three factions had conspired to frame him, all without saying a word.

Wei Xun: "Have I offended that many people?"

Wei Xun looked up and ran into a certain man.

Wei Xun: "I'm leaving."

Yun Tan: "I'm here!"

Wei Xun: "Aren't you afraid I'll take advantage of you?"

Yun Tan: "You can take advantage of me any way you like! I've got opportunities everywhere!"

And so Tan Yang gained a volatile Wei Xun on the move.

And a Yun Tan who trotted after Wei Xun wherever he went.

But there's no denying Wei Xun's life was full of ups and downs, and more downs, and even more downs.

His home was gone.

His country was gone.

He was gone, too.

"As long as the Unorthodox Path exists, Tan Yang will never fall."

Fellow practitioners of the Unorthodox Path, guarding the same souls along the Unorthodox Way.

One-on-one romance, two equally powerful leads, happy ending.

Ensemble cast.

[Content warnings]

I'm not very good at this, so please bear with me.

The plot is old-fashioned. It was originally an idea I had in middle school eight years ago.

Plot-focused, with a slow-burn romance. There are quite a few characters. Although this is danmei, it has many female characters.

I'm working hard to fix the logic bugs. Feedback is welcome!
