What do you do when you wake up and inexplicably find yourself possessing someone else's body? This is urgent.
When Zhu Ling woke up in the body he'd possessed, he found a sword laid across his shoulder. The ordinary-looking young man facing him, sword in hand, asked, "Have you lost your memory?"
Zhu Ling hesitated.
The man continued, "You just went into cultivation deviation, and your meridians are in disarray. It's normal to have lost your memory."
Zhu Ling asked, "Then why did I go into cultivation deviation?"
The ordinary-looking young man said, "You fell deeply in love with me, but couldn't have me. You just confessed your feelings, only for me to reject you coldly. You were so humiliated and angry that you went into cultivation deviation."
The young man added, "You put a love curse on me. If you go more than three zhang away from me, you'll suffer unbearable pain."
"Why am I the one who suffers?" Zhu Ling asked.
The young man replied, "Because you can't bear to see me suffer."
"...That kind of makes sense. But why do you care whether I suffer or not?" Zhu Ling pressed.
"Because I'm kind," the young man said.
Right, so I've inexplicably possessed a stranger, and now I have to play a lovesick fool who seems to have something wrong with his head... My bright future is certainly full of promise.
Jun Yanzhou was poisoned and forced to switch bodies. Before he could get used to his new body, his old one was possessed by someone else.
What could he do? He had to trick the guy into leaving.
The body-snatcher took to playing the lovesick fool so well. Honestly... ahem, if he really wanted it, giving him another body wouldn't be a problem.
Have you heard? The Demon Lord Jun Yanzhou plays the lovesick fool for Qi Refining disciples every day.
Please note:
1. The shou is frail and sickly.
2. The shou doesn't actually act like the gong's lovesick fool. He's only pretending.
The story from the blurb starts in chapter one.
The idea came from a September 2023 meme, and the pre-release page was created in March 2025.
I just wrote the theme off the top of my head... ()
