Everyone knows Zhou Yinghuai was born with immortal bones. Yet after one trip down the mountain, he returned with a disciple who harbored divine-demon bones capable of destroying heaven and earth: Xu Jinhuan.
He pitied Xu Jinhuan's past and took him on as his disciple.
But Xu Jinhuan hated him for not letting him kill his enemy with his own hands.
The first time Xu Jinhuan tasted jealousy was when he caught Zhou Yinghuai preparing a medicinal bath for an injured fox spirit. The fox, who had spent the whole day lying in Zhou Yinghuai's arms, was even getting his exclusive medicinal bath.
Xu Jinhuan sprang out of a corner, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "The gods truly love everyone. They spare no one, not even a fox spirit."
Zhou Yinghuai frowned slightly but did not answer, which only made Xu Jinhuan angrier. He hated that he wasn't a fox spirit himself. Then he could lie in his master's arms.
He went wild with frustration and deliberately let out demonic energy to scare the fox unconscious. Zhou Yinghuai looked down at the fox in his arms. "Jinhuan, stop acting out. Go accept your punishment."
In the punishment pool, Xu Jinhuan couldn't tell whether he'd passed out from anger or pain. When he finally woke and saw Zhou Yinghuai applying medicine to his wounds, he froze.
His master's touch was gentle as his fingers brushed over the scars. Xu Jinhuan suddenly rolled over, pinning Zhou Yinghuai against the bedpost and trapping him in his arms. He asked in a low voice, "Did you tend to that beast's wounds like this, too?" Zhou Yinghuai gazed at the countless scars, his eyes filled with boundless sorrow.
"I'll always be by your side."
The day Xu Jinhuan was imprisoned on the Demon-Slaying Platform, the immortal mark on his forehead burned fiercely. It was the mark left by his union with his master. When the elders cursed him, Zhou Yinghuai stood in front of Xu Jinhuan, sword in hand. "Whether he is a god or a demon is for him to decide."
"You've lost your mind!" an elder shouted.
Watching Zhou Yinghuai's plain white robes soak through with blood, his knuckles white from gripping his sword, Xu Jinhuan forced himself free of the demon-binding chains, roused the divine-demon bones within him, and fought his way out through a sea of blood.
"You mustn't!" Zhou Yinghuai cried, then drove his sword into Xu Jinhuan's core.

Everyone takes it for granted that Lu Yixing, who lives with the Shen family, is inherently beneath Shen Zeye.
Rumors spread everywhere. People mock him as an illegitimate son who must stay hidden, a stray dog Shen Zeye can summon whenever he pleases.
Lu Yixing never argues. He is gentle and reserved, always accommodating and trying to please.
Naively, he believes that if he is obedient and sensible enough, he can eventually warm Shen Zeye's heart and finally have a home of his own.
But his efforts to please and his humility are seen as false and calculating. Shen Zeye is possessive and awkward, and has in fact already fallen for him. But he is too proud to admit his feelings for Lu Yixing, so he hides his panic behind the most hurtful words. Day after day of cold indifference wears away the last of Lu Yixing's warmth.
When everyone is certain he can't leave the Shen family, Lu Yixing erases every trace of himself and walks away without hesitation.
He leaves cleanly and decisively. Shen Zeye watches coldly, certain it won't be long before Lu Yixing comes crawling back to beg for forgiveness.
But Shen Zeye is the first to beg. When Lu Yixing is slandered by his childhood friend and attacked by the entire internet, Shen Zeye seeks him out immediately, offering help with an air of lofty charity. As long as Lu Yixing obediently comes back and continues to listen, he can help him.
Lu Yixing merely replies with four words: "Thanks for your concern." His uncharacteristic attitude leaves Shen Zeye frantic. He steps in to try to settle things, only to uncover a shocking truth.
[The parents of newcomer actor Lu Wang are internationally renowned designers]
[The rising star endured years of humiliation as a child]
Reading the trending headlines, Shen Zeye finally understands how ridiculous he has been.
The once-superior heir to the Shen family loses every last shred of his dignity. Flustered and at a loss, he hurriedly gathers everything he owns and lays it all before Lu Yixing.
He thinks that if he humbles himself and makes amends, Lu Yixing will surely soften and come back to him.
But in front of everyone, Lu Yixing, who once gave his whole heart to him, is no longer the timid, self-effacing person he used to be. He looks up at the helpless man with a smile, but his tone is distant.
"Mr. Shen, you don't have to do this."
