Rebellion Against the Heaven

Story

When Luo Jianqing was just resurrected and reborn in the past, he felt that he lived on stolen time. 

He remembered how his junior fellow disciples were murdered in the frozen North, and everyone believed that he was the murderer. He remembered how he turned from the beloved senior disciple of Tai Hua Shan to the hated fugitive. He remembered how the hateful Li Xiuchen killed him with his master Xuan Ling Zi's sword. 

All these tragedies happened because they lived inside a novel and the plot mandated these to happen. 

Seeing Xuan Ling Zi before everything happened stirred anger, grief and disbelief inside him. Even though Xuan Ling Zi didn't accept Li Xiuchen as his disciple like before in his previous life, he was still cold and distant. 

Jianqing touched the tattoo of two petal lotus on his forehead. This was the proof of the cultivation method he learnt from Xuan Ling Zi. The more petals the tattoo had, the more advanced the cultivator was. There were already eight petals in the lotus tattoo on Xuan Ling Zi's forehead. 

He knew that according to the novel, Li Xiuchen was the favourite of the heavenly mandate, so he could wreck and destroy so many lives with sheer luck. He needed to strengthen himself to destroy him. 

He stared at his master's hut, where Xuan Ling Zi secluded himself for cultivation advancement. 

One day I'll be powerful enough that you can't hide from me, he thought. He was already branded a demon cultivator in his past life. This time he would let nothing stop him from getting what he desired. 

Jianqing remembered the day Xuan Ling Zi died for him. 

Even his murderers were shocked at the death of the most powerful cultivator in the world. With his death, Xuan Ling Zi burnt away his internal spirit to set up a protective barrier to protect his disciple and lover. 

Jianqing killed off almost everyone of the killers that day for murdering a man with a nobler soul than them and the love of his life. His heart stopped feeling pain from that day, because from then on, Xuan Ling Zi disappeared from the world. 

He was determined to change the world's fate from the day he was reborn in this world. He received and lost more than expected throughout his journey. Two of his most important people have died and he wouldn't see them again. 

He could trap himself in a massive illusion for a glimpse of his love until he was devoured by the monsters. However, he was determined to create a miracle with his own hands. The heavenly mandate has long been used to ruined many lives. He would rebel against the heaven. 

As powerful cultivators, both Luo Jianqing and Xuan Ling Zi could easily clean themselves up with magic. It didn't stop Jianqing from dragging Xuan Ling Zi into the hot spring and taking a bath together.

Jianqing felt that it was worth it to set up the magical restriction formation in advance so that Xuan Ling Zi would agree to it. Xuan Ling Zi let his long hair hang down over his shoulders and closed his eyes. He looked as cool and distant as moonlight. The magical tattoo of golden lotus on his forehead made him look like an immortal unaffected by the world. 

Jiianqing knew it was only an illusion. Xuan Ling Zi became the most powerful cultivator before his birth. Growing up as his disciple, Jianqing learnt about his many exploits from others, not to mention the many battles they fought side by side against the whole cultivation world. Yet Xuan Ling Zi gave up everything to fight for him. Jiangqing would never forget that.

Even after what they have gone through, Jianqing's heart raced as he saw Xuan Ling Zi naked. He would never have expected that they could get together when he was reborn. At that time he only wanted to drag his mentor to the abyss with him. 

He kissed Xuan Ling Zi's eyelids, his cheeks and his lips. The path of heaven was rebuilt. One day they would ascend together.

When he kissed Xuan Ling Zi's chest, Xuan Ling Zi pulled him into his arms and said, "We're in public."

"We as cultivators should focus on cultivation all the time."

"Do you want to practise sword fighting with me?" Xuan Ling Zi asked. Then he blushed as he caught up with his meaning. 

"Double cultivation is serious business," Jianqing said before submerging himself in the water for more persuasion. 

Soon he lost himself In overwhelming pleasure as Xuan Ling Zi fused their internal spirits together during sex. He held onto Xuan Ling Zi, wanting to merge themselves together. 

This was the life Jianqing wanted. It was what they deserved after fighting against the heavenly mandate and freeing the world.
