The year of the sect tournament, the sword cultivator Qian Qiusui burst onto the scene and claimed the title of top disciple.
Everyone thought that Xie Changji, the young master of the Xie family, who had been certain to win the title, would become her sworn enemy. Instead, he turned around and became an alchemy cultivator with next to no fighting ability.
The girls who had once admired his youthful prowess were heartbroken. After all, alchemy cultivators were notoriously weak in battle.
But during an adventure in a secret realm, everyone discovered that the once-genius Xie Changji had only to lift his chin, and the current senior sister, Qian Qiusui, would present him with every ingredient he wanted for his pills.
He even insisted on riding her sword whenever they flew!
The sect's top disciple, Qian Qiusui, merely chuckled. Her beautiful, otherworldly face showed no anger as she reached behind her and slipped a hand beneath the robe of the person behind her, gently teasing him.
"Young Master saved my life. Whatever you need me to do, I'll give it my all."
Xie Changji clenched his teeth and tugged at his disciple's robe, covering the suggestive red marks she had left on his neck the night before. A faint blush betrayed him, yet he couldn't help anticipating the touch of her cool fingertips.
Being addressed so respectfully as "Young Master" only made him more mortified. What nonsense about being his savior? This woman clearly saw him as the antidote to her water-spirit-root furnace physique!
