Did the Dragon-Blooded Hero Raise a Rabbit Today?

A free story for you. Thank you all for your support.

Bai Tu is just an innocent lop-eared rabbit.

He is happily munching on carrots in a secret realm when three-headed hellhounds chase him for eight whole streets. In his panic, he runs straight into someone's arms.

He looks up and meets a pair of eyes cold as tempered stars.

The person lifts Bai Tu's ears with the scabbard of his sword and sneers. "Little monster, there are two things I hate most..."

Bai Tu curls into a little ball of fluff, his ruby-red eyes shedding big fat tears.

Then comes a metallic ching.

The sword goes back in its sheath, and the rabbit goes into his sleeve.

Later, the man makes him a chew toy out of ten-thousand-year-old black ice,

and uses a binding rope as a toy to tease him.

When Bai Tu chews through The Nine Heavens Sword Manual,

the man holds his paw and wipes away his drool. "Didn't hurt your teeth, did it?"

Until one day, Bai Tu accidentally eats a transformation herb

and suddenly becomes a beautiful young man, with rabbit ears atop his head.

The man's gaze changes in an instant.

He pins him down on a jade box full of spirit herbs, his expression unreadable.

Chu Linyuan is widely acknowledged as the chosen one of the cultivation world.

He has cut down the Heavenly Dao with his sword, is arrogant and untamed, and hates two things above all else:

First, anyone more arrogant than him.

Second, anyone who dreams of becoming his Dao companion.

Until he finds a snow-white lop-eared rabbit in a secret realm.

The rabbit, fleeing from a demon beast, trembles as it crashes into his arms, its ruby-red eyes gazing up at him, wet and shining.

Chu Linyuan sneers. "A mere little monster..."

But his hand, entirely of its own accord, tucks the rabbit into his sleeve.

Later, the entire cultivation world knows:

Chu Linyuan keeps a rabbit and spoils it rotten.

It eats all the thousand-year-old spirit herbs in his collection, so he finds it ten more plants. If it wants spirit fruit, he moves heaven and earth to find some.

After it transforms, the beautiful young man can make Sword Venerable Chu's heart itch with a single lowered glance or upward look, yet he loves to wander away from the cave dwelling for fresh air.

Chu Linyuan pins the young man down. His voice is hoarse. "Stay in the cave like a good boy and give me baby bunnies, all right?"
