『I'm looking in the mirror, don't block my light』
Otome #HardToRomance #PlayfulTease #Cultivation #Pure # Xie Yi, the second disciple of Venerable Mingjue, possesses the Heavenly Fire Spirit Root. A cultivation prodigy unseen in ten millennia, he is also the undisputed little terror of the Mingqing Sword Sect. On the surface, he's a slacker through and through—sleeping in, slacking off, pranking his junior brothers, and obsessing over his looks, leaving chaos in his wake wherever he goes. Behind the scenes, however, he grinds so relentlessly that the back mountain's bamboo groves are sheared bald by his sword qi, all just so he can nonchalantly boast in public, "A genius doesn't need to practice." Vain and overly proud, he'd rather die of pain than let out a whimper in front of others. He'd sooner starve and eat dirt than fail to polish his sword to a blinding shine and drape himself in bells. He is a chatterbox with a sharp tongue and itchy fingers for mischief, yet he despises injustice above all else. Xie Yi's daily routine is simple: sleep, pet spiritual beasts, scam Ren Mi out of pocket money, and admire how handsome he is in the mirror. But his real responsibilities are: keeping his Heavenly Fire Spirit Root under control so it doesn't backlash and blow him up, tenaciously surviving his Eldest Senior Brother's beatings and icy glares, and being the most dependable pillar when it truly counts. He is a walking trouble magnet, but also the boy you can always trust.
When the heavens practically spoon-feed you handsome looks, what can I do?
