[Wily Old Fox vs. Naive Husky]
No one in the cultivation world has never heard of the sword cultivator Wen Yi, the foremost of the "Four Geniuses of Songchi," unmatched by anyone. He is also an unaffiliated cultivator with no master, nominally affiliated with the Sword Sect.
They say he ties up his hair with a red ribbon and smiles as he talks. The Shanhai Sword in his hand can command the respect of all beneath the heavens, or gently brush snow aside and pluck flowers.
A sword cultivator like him should have become a Sword Immortal who led the cultivation world of his generation. Yet he suddenly fell in a battle against a Heavenly Demon.
His body was never found.
Five hundred years passed, and the world changed beyond recognition.
The Sword Immortal of the past had become Wen An, a frail, sickly mortal chef who rarely told the truth and loved to wisecrack.
He thought he would never again have anything to do with cultivators, but then he ran into a green young Immortal Lord.
The young Immortal Lord was handsome and dashing, full of youthful vigor.
And he shamelessly wanted to take Wen Yi as his disciple.
Wen Yi: "..."
What a mess.
*
The young Immortal Lord is named Sheng Chi, a rising star who is all the rage in the cultivation world.
His parents are members of the "Four Geniuses of Songchi," renowned and powerful figures of high standing.
...Both are old friends of Wen Yi's.
Sheng Chi's parents had told him stories about the Sword Immortal since he was little. He idolized the Sword Immortal and wanted to become a great hero just like him.
Taking his own experience as an example, he also likes to encourage his disciples by telling them about the Sword Immortal.
"The harder you work, the closer you'll get to becoming like the Sword Immortal."
Wen Yi: "Tsk."
Since when was he a unit of measurement?
*
At a family banquet, Sheng Chi finally found his long-lost, unofficial disciple.
He was about to go over and scold the guy for disappearing without a word, when he saw his parents holding his unofficial disciple down and force-feeding him all kinds of snacks.
The guy looked more like their son than Sheng Chi did.
Sheng Chi: "?"
"Let me introduce you. This is our old classmate, your Uncle-Master Wen Yi."
Wen Yi was wrapped in a thick fur coat. He raised an eyebrow and tilted his head, looking as sly as a fox.
"...Master?"
Sheng Chi: "..."
What a mess.
Theme: Face life bravely.
