Li Daoxuan, the 187th-generation heir to Maoshan Ghost Dao, became a master of the occult at a very young age. Rumor had it he could command a hundred ghosts. Song Yuan gritted his teeth and confirmed that the rumor was true: he was the unlucky ghost being commanded by Li Daoxuan.
Every day, he had to float off and buy Li Daoxuan breakfast before he woke up. He was responsible for scaring away anyone Li Daoxuan didn't want to see, and at night he had to keep watch for him. In short, he was an unbelievably overworked corporate drone from the underworld.
When Li Daoxuan suggested he also take a part-time job at a haunted house, Song Yuan finally snapped.
Fine. Fine.
So you're treating me like a Japanese person, huh?
Then it wouldn't be unreasonable for me to borrow your yang energy and come back to life, would it?
For the sake of his resurrection, Song Yuan gave it everything he had!
When Li Daoxuan fell asleep, he secretly kissed him to absorb his yang energy. When Li Daoxuan was cold, Song Yuan climbed into bed and snuggled up to him, secretly absorbing his yang energy. He even snuck bites of the pastries Li Daoxuan left behind. Bet you didn't know that could absorb yang energy too, Li Daoxuan!
As time went by, the ghost world was abuzz with rumors that Song Yuan was a hopeless romantic, so madly in love with Li Daoxuan he could die.
Song Yuan (lighting a cigarette with a weary air.jpg): "...Does this even make sense?"
As a once-in-a-century genius of Maoshan Ghost Dao, Li Daoxuan had the gift of commanding a hundred ghosts, but that gift depended on his ability to maintain his Daoist resolve.
Li Daoxuan used to think that wouldn't be a problem. After all, he had always been free of worldly desires, until one day a rumor reached his ears.
Only then did Li Daoxuan take a good look at the ghost who spent every day by his side. He had smiling eyes and a pretty face. More importantly, it seemed he really liked me a lot.
From that moment on, the master of the occult couldn't sleep. When he caught the ghost secretly kissing him again, he finally made up his mind:
He likes me this much. It wouldn't be unreasonable for me to return his feelings a little, would it?
