Li Buzhuo made a name for himself at a young age and was one of the best demon hunters around. Lately, however, he had been troubled, caught between happiness and worry. After giving it some thought, he summed up the reasons:
Happy: My little apprentice, who parted ways with me five years ago, is back.
Worried: There seems to be something wrong with his head. He's forgotten that I slept with him.
So Li Buzhuo thought, if he pretended not to know either, they could put that accident behind them, go back to being a loving master and apprentice, and he could once again enjoy the comfortable life of having his apprentice, his magic tools, and a warm bed all to himself.
But the longer he kept up the act, the heavier the dark circles under Li Buzhuo's eyes became. The moment he opened his eyes each morning, Yu Guixi was right there. When he closed them at night, Yu Guixi was still on his mind.
Dreaming about your apprentice every single night? Had he been possessed or something?
Wait.
For once, Li Buzhuo doubted himself. Was it possible that not only had he been a beast in the past, but he might be one for the rest of his life, carrying that name to the bitter end?
It seemed he really did covet the apprentice he'd raised himself.
