After Two Proud Dragon Protagonists on the Broken Engagement Route Eloped Together

Two awful people fall in love.

A play-the-pig-to-eat-the-tiger, manipulative, show-off of a bottom, and an upright-to-the-point-of-absurdity Sword Venerable, an arrogant dragon-like hero of a top.

Blurb:

The good-for-nothing Nan Zhiyu has been dumped.

Their marriage contract is torn up on the spot. The frail, dragon-like hero is showered with money by his fiancee, who tramples on his dignity and humiliates him, yet he can't fight back.

With red-rimmed eyes, he grits his teeth and makes a fierce vow:

"Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river. Don't look down on a poor young man!"

The immortal-looking young man, holding the money from the broken engagement, seems so bullied that he's about to collapse.

In truth, his cultivation has already surpassed the Ninth Heaven. He closes his eyes and revels inwardly:

"Don't pity this delicate flower. Bring on the mountains of gold and silver! ↗ My wallet is waiting to be plundered. ♂ Humiliate me with money even harder, oh yeah, skrr."

The good-for-nothing Qin Porong has also been dumped.

Their marriage contract is torn up on the spot. The dragon-like hero is showered with money by his fiancee, who tramples on his dignity and humiliates him, yet he can't fight back.

With a dark look and a mocking smile, he makes a fierce vow:

"Great generals and ministers aren't born to noble blood. A man must make himself strong. If you look down on me, Miss, then there's no need for us to marry!"

But the dragon-like hero, whose swordsmanship has already surpassed the Ninth Heaven, is soon soaring high:

"The land of Bashan and Chushui is bleak and desolate. Responsibility~ I don't cry, bro, I just count money, lose sleep, FLOW, withdraw early, and live it up, swagger down the street, and fly solo."

When they spot each other wearing the same secretly delighted expression,

they sit down and smile at one another.

"Brother, on your own?"

"Alas, I just got dumped, brother."

"Alas, me too, brother."

They feel a kindred bond.

When they get to talking about who dumped them, Qin Porong says with calm dignity, "Brother, I was dumped by Miss Wang Cuicui of the Nine Great Families."

Nan Zhiyu stares, bewildered.

"Huh? Brother, why does your fiancee have the same name as mine?"

After a few awkward seconds of silence,

Nan Zhiyu apologizes first.

"Alas, I cheated on you, brother."

He didn't have any feelings for his fiancee anyway. He may as well make things easier for his brother.

Qin Porong also feels inexplicably guilty and sighs.

"Alas, it's fine, brother."

He was completely unmoved by being dumped anyway. He may as well make things easier for his brother.

But their gazes grow more and more tender.

"Brother... you're so good to me, brother."

"Brother... don't say that, brother..."

Nan Zhiyu lowers his head shyly, while Qin Porong rubs his hands together guiltily.

That night, they decide to travel together, also known as eloping.

_

Nan Zhiyu is so manipulative he puts on an act every day,

while Qin Porong is so upright he's downright absurd.

The whole world looks down on them.

But as they travel together, fighting monsters and leveling up,

the two oddballs with their bizarre thought processes decide the other is just wonderful.

Nan Zhiyu gazes at him admiringly: Damn, Brother Qin is so cool. He cuts down anyone who gets in his way.

Qin Porong can't stop praising him: Damn, Brother Yu is so cool. He insults anyone who gets in his way.

Nan Zhiyu presses a hand to his heart, blushing: Brother Qin, I'm too lazy to fight monsters. I need you to swing your sword for me.

Qin Porong is tender and considerate: Brother Yu, I'm not good with words. I need you to insult them for me.

They look at each other and smile.

It's no trouble at all, brother. Of course I'll do it.

Two dragon-like heroes cultivate immortality together, eating and living under the same roof.

Soon they're as close as brothers who share a pair of pants.

Together, their twin swords make them invincible beneath the heavens.

_

A dragon-like hero has plenty in common with another dragon-like hero.

For instance, immortal cultivation, and also...

"No, brother, you don't get it, brother."

Qin Porong patiently gestures to the person in his arms.

"Dual cultivation means we practice our cultivation together, then scrub each other in the clouds and rain. That's why it's called sharing the clouds and rain."

Nan Zhiyu suddenly understands and sits up from the other's broad chest.

"So that's what it means, brother. I get it now, brother."

He offers a theory to the person beside him with earnest instruction.

"Then 'reversing the phoenix and overturning the luan' means we fight our way up to the Ninth Heaven, capture the phoenix and the immortal luan, and make them our mounts."

They look at each other and smile.

That'll definitely improve our cultivation.

And their gazes grow more and more tender.

"Brother... you're so good to me, brother."

"Brother... don't say that, brother..."

Nan Zhiyu lowers his head shyly, while Qin Porong presses his lips together, blushing.

That night, they decide to practice their cultivation together, also known as dual cultivation.

_

After dual cultivation, both of their powers improve greatly.

But the two dragon-like heroes fall into a strange silence.

Qin Porong leans over, lifts the covers, and gently rubs Nan Zhiyu's lower back. He apologizes in a low voice.

"I'm sorry, brother. I couldn't control myself last night and wronged you, brother."

He went a bit too far with that mistake:

He accidentally transformed into Zhao Zilong of Changshan and went in and out seven times.

Nan Zhiyu, who'd cried until he passed out the night before, lies weakly in his arms.

After all, he'd gained plenty of cultivation from being tossed around,

so he feels a little guilty.

"It's fine, brother. We're men who like men. It's only human nature."

And their gazes grow more and more full of irrepressible passion.

"Brother... you're so good to me, brother."

"Brother... don't say that, brother..."

Nan Zhiyu lowers his head shyly, while Qin Porong holds him and kisses him wildly.

That night, they decide to make dual cultivation a regular thing, also known as becoming cultivation partners.

_

Both are heaven's favored sons, single-minded in their pursuit of strength.

So they join hands and smile at each other, their swords ringing as they point toward the heavens and the blazing sun.

"Brother, I want the whole world to come running to you."

In the eyes of the ambitious young prodigies, their admiration and passionate love for each other shine brightly, undisguised.

"In the name of brotherhood,

you are the one and only love of my life."

5. [Content notes]

■ Everyone is awful, and it's very melodramatic.

■ The fiancee breaks off the engagement right from the start and is a supporting character.

■ The golden finger is ridiculously overpowered. The top and bottom are dragon-like heroes who reach the Deity Transformation stage at sixteen or seventeen. They're the strongest in the whole book, so don't read if that bothers you.

■ There is no chance of "not looking down on them and therefore not breaking off the engagement." This is an alternate cultivation world governed by the law of the jungle, where everyone just wants to get stronger. So click to read about awful people falling in love.
