At Cangling Sect's disciple recruitment, a boy appears whom everyone will remember, not for his pretty face, but for his glowing, rainbow-colored hair. His hair dazzles the eyes of the other contestants and elders alike.
Then the boy single-handedly tears down the sect's protective formation.
The elders: ??!
The other contestants are swept into the mess without a scratch, and Cangling Sect tearfully accepts the largest batch of new disciples in its history.
One would expect a disciple with such keen observation and decisive execution to have excellent natural aptitude, but the boy has the lowest-ranked Five-Element Spirit Root in the cultivation world.
The elders who had considered taking him as a disciple say nothing. The boy, oblivious, points to Immortal Venerable Qinghan and insists on taking him as his master, even calling him "beauty" with shameless familiarity.
To everyone's surprise, Immortal Venerable Qinghan agrees to the boy's unreasonable request.
The other disciples: Is it too late for me to start calling Immortal Venerable Qinghan "beauty" too?!

After joining the sect, the disciple continues to be as unconventional and self-willed as ever.
The player is always wandering around the sect with a blood-soaked head, as if no one else is there. At first, the disciples scream in terror, but they gradually get used to it.
Things often vanish into thin air wherever the player goes. Sometimes, the place is left so barren that not a blade of grass remains.
The player mechanically repeats conversations with other disciples and elders until he hears what he wants.
The player's jobs run the gamut, from punching above his weight to slay ferocious beasts, to helping his junior sister write eighteen love letters to eighteen different recipients.
Some say that when there's no danger, the boy is the greatest danger of all. But when danger comes, the unreliable boy always finds some way to resolve the crisis. And if all else fails, Yun Qiuyang can call for backup :)
Others argue that Immortal Venerable Qinghan would never stand by and watch the sect fall into trouble.
Everyone: ...

Because he's so good at stirring up trouble, the player's health bar is always on the verge of running out. Most of the time, the world's number one Sword Venerable is the one who heals him. One quick heal is enough to let the player go wild for half a day.
After doing this so many times, Qinghan's healing arts grow ever more profound. In the end, Tian Yuxue even opens a special course to share the medical knowledge he's gained through practical experience.
Immortal Venerable Qinghan often sighs. This world is too dangerous; his little disciple is always one step from death.
Everyone else: Maybe there's something wrong with your little disciple?
Tian Yuxue: Impossible. Qiuyang has always been a good boy. He never goes looking for trouble.
...Immortal Venerable, when did you go blind?
Some want to ask, but no one dares.

One day, Yun Qingyu gets an item that can check an NPC's affinity, so he grabs a familiar-looking passerby at random to test it.
[Du Lixin's affinity for you: +70/-70]
Yun Qingyu: How can it be positive and negative?
The player refuses to believe it and keeps testing NPCs, only to find that every affinity score has both a positive and a negative value.
The player accepts the fact that affinity can be negative, until he tests it on his own master:
[Tian Yuxue's affinity for you: +99]
Yun Qingyu: !!!
*Bonus scene
Yun: I want to dye this thing green!
(He really does.)
Tian: So full of life.
*Another bonus scene
On their wedding night, the player and his master drink their nuptial wine, kiss and cuddle on the bed, then lie down in each other's arms.
And then nothing happens.
The excited player waits a long time for what he expects to happen next, then abruptly turns around to find his master smiling, peaceful and content in his sleep.
Player: ???
The player grabs him by the collar and shakes him hard: Why are you sleeping? Wake up and sleep with me!!!

A shameless, mischief-loving player bottom x a sweet, gentle, nurturing master top
1. Don't casually assume the player's motives or moral standards.
2. The player has two conflicting traits: he's somewhat of a universal heartthrob (and not all the affection is romantic), yet he's also universally disliked.
3. The bottom confesses first. Don't read if that bothers you.
4. The top really is sweet and naive. Even after turning dark and coming back, he's still sweet and naive, and believes everything the bottom says.
5. One-on-one romance. Readers who insist on one particular pairing, beware (highlighted).
6. His hair isn't limited to one rainbow-colored, Mary Sue style. It can also have highlights, gradients, and different color combinations, and vary in length, curls, and straightness. The player does whatever he wants!
