Xie Qian, Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect, devised a new cultivation method. He had to bind his hands and feet, cover his eyes, and endure seven days of burning desire. Success meant a breakthrough; failure meant severe injury.
Xie Qian had struggled through six days and was nearly at the end when someone suddenly broke through his barrier. The next thing he knew, a man was sitting on his lap.
Xie Qian: "? Who the hell are you?"
Luo Jingchuan had seen Xie Qian once at the Immortal Alliance Conference. From that one glimpse, the man's face haunted his dreams night after night.
A moment's mistake while studying formations sent Luo Jingchuan straight to Xie Qian. Seeing the man before him bound in chains and suffering, Luo Jingchuan gritted his teeth in fury. Who dared treat him like this? If he ever found out, he'd grind them to dust!
He reverently kissed the handsome face he'd longed for day and night and murmured, "Don't be afraid. I've come to save you."
Xie Qian, Sect Master of the Hehuan Sect, issued a wanted notice throughout the Immortal Alliance, vowing to kill the person who had ruined his cultivation and sullied his innocence.
He added one more line: Influenced by his cultivation method, until he has recovered, this person must cultivate together with him every day.
The Immortal Alliance was thrown into an uproar.
Sword cultivator genius / demonic cultivator big shot / wealthy artifact cultivator: "It was me. I'm that lecher."
The members of the Immortal Alliance argued over it day after day, until Luo Jingchuan, Sect Master of the reclusive Qingwu Sect, mastered an ancient killing formation and trapped them all inside it.
Luo Jingchuan was covered in wounds from using his blood to create the formation. Xie Qian could barely stand to look at him, but Luo Jingchuan didn't care in the slightest.
He only smiled and asked Xie Qian, "Sect Master Xie, these people aren't good. I killed them all. Is that okay?"
*Sweet, silly sunshine top / beautiful but tragic bottom x tech nerd / hopeless romantic bottom
Content warnings:
1. The top is powerful and immensely charming, and is a popular idol in the Immortal Alliance. He doesn't start out in the Hehuan Sect, and there will be career and revenge storylines.
2. The bottom pursues the top at first, but later they dote on each other. Both are completely satisfied with each other. The top returns after being mistreated, but still has the heart of a boy: he dares to love and hate, and lives freely and boldly.
3. As mentioned above, the top will suffer. The angst comes from his past. After he meets the bottom, the story is mostly sweet. The bottom will go berserk and unleash a storm of pain over the injustices the top endured.
