My Biggest Fan Is Actually Myself

"My father said that back when Senior Brother Qiu first joined Kunlun, the elders nearly fought over taking him as a disciple."

"For those with Clear Dao Heart, the path of cultivation is without any obstacles; it's naturally a smooth road. After a few Jiazi Cycles, they'll be a Nascent Soul expert."

"So, after all the scrambling, the Kunlun Sect Master insisted on overcoming all difficulties to take him as his disciple."

"Wow." Hearing this, everyone could only sigh in admiration, their faces filled with envy.

"And the legends about him are all true. In Kunlun and Penglai, there are corresponding witnesses, so it can't be faked."

Shi Liuli said this, pulling out a small booklet from her sleeve, and continued:

"This is something I got from a Kunlun Daoist friend after spending a lot of money through connections. It's the biography of Qiu Changtian, you can take a look."

Everyone immediately crowded around, craning their necks to read.

Luo Yan scratched his ears and cheeks outside the door, wanting to go in but not daring to, feeling incredibly frustrated.

He could only hear the discussions from inside:

"The cover even has a sketch of him! He's indeed handsome and dashing, my favorite type!"

"It's different from what I imagined, but the one in the painting is even more handsome! Ahhh, I really want to touch his face!"

"To think such a perfect man exists in this world! Damn it, if only I had gone to Kunlun to become a disciple back then!"

"Junior Sister Shi, could you lend me this booklet to admire for a few days?" a Senior Sister asked eagerly.

Shi Liuli immediately snatched it back, clutching it to her chest and shaking her head desperately:

"No, no, I need to keep this booklet with me personally. You can go buy one from the people at Kunlun."

"Little Junior Sister, don't be so stingy."

"How about I trade you a Seal of Demonic Imprint? Plus two East Sea luminous pearls!"

Luo Yan left with a blank expression.

Walking on the garden path within Yuqing Temple, he began to seriously contemplate a question:

Does this count as him cuckolding himself?

Of course not.

Firstly, Eldest Young Lady Shi's feelings for Qiu Changtian are currently just idol worship, not true romantic affection.

Even if it might develop into a crush later, that's for the future; it's not the case now.

Secondly, Luo Yan himself doesn't have any romantic feelings for Eldest Young Lady Shi.

This is the key point!

Although Eldest Young Lady Shi is pretty and cute (and cooperative when he's brushing synchronization values), as Qiu Changtian and Xu Yinglian said, her personality is simply too immature.

Getting angry at Xu Yinglian, whom she's never met, over something so bizarre.

To put it nicely, it's called not knowing the immensity of heaven and earth; to put it bluntly, it will cause trouble in the future!

Of course, her personality is also due to her exceptionally privileged upbringing.

Her father, Elder Shi Ding, is a pillar of the Artifact Refining lineage within Yuqing Temple. Not only the Sect Master of Yuqing Temple but even the Ziwei Sect Master of Kunlun shows him respect.

Furthermore, within the Tiangong Workshop, there are three Golden Core cultivators. Third Senior Sister Liang Ruohua is at the Spirit Manifestation stage, Second Senior Sister Lei Caiyan is at the Root Seeking stage, and Senior Brother Linghu Chu has already cultivated to the peak of the Subtle stage, only needing to fully return to the void to form a core and become a Nascent Soul elder.

With so many powerful Senior Brothers and Sisters around, who would dare to provoke Shi Liuli? Even if someone disliked her, they would likely just avoid her.

As a result, developing a self-centered personality is only natural—not to mention, Shi Liuli hasn't completely gone astray yet and still occasionally cares about her Junior Brother, which already speaks to her inherently good nature.

Although Luo Yan has to serve this Eldest Young Lady to brush synchronization values, honestly speaking, compared to the gentle and considerate Senior Sister An, and the intelligent and proud Junior Sister Xu, Eldest Young Lady Shi's personality is indeed not likable.

Forget it, forget it. Let her like whoever she wants.

Anyway, Qiu Changtian is me, and Luo Yan is also me. As long as I don't like her, it doesn't matter who she likes.

Luo Yan returned to his workshop and continued with his studies.

Elder Shi Ding had assigned him three tasks:

One, study the Way of Formations and the Art of Cauldron Forging.

Two, refine Qi and improve his cultivation.

Three, serve Eldest Young Lady Shi well.

Of course, the original words weren't exactly like that; they were "When you have time, ask your Senior Sister for guidance."

Given his "One Hear Thousand Comprehensions" talent, Luo Yan understood his master's underlying meaning perfectly: be accommodating to Shi Liuli in every way, and incidentally brush up on his hypocritical persona synchronization values.

As for refining Qi and improving cultivation, there's no need to be too fixated.

After all, the Qi Refining Technique of the Tiangong Workshop lineage is "Three Flowers Gathering Spirit," which has very average cultivation efficiency. It's a waste of effort to cultivate it now; it's better to wait to ascend to the next stage at Li Palace.

After a few more days of study, the day finally arrived for the Kunlun envoy delegation to arrive, catching up with Qiu Changtian's timeline.

At this moment, Qiu Changtian was following the Ziwei Sect Master and others into the main hall to attend the welcoming banquet. Elder Shi Ding was also there to show his support.

Unexpectedly, the Senior Brothers and Sisters were not enthusiastic about forging connections with Kunlun people, except for Shi Liuli, who was eager to meet her idol brother, and Senior Brother Linghu Chu, who was reluctantly dragged along.

Everyone else was holed up in their own workshops, so Luo Yan didn't need to make any excuses.

In the evening, after the banquet ended, Shi Liuli bustled into his workshop again.

"Junior Brother, Junior Brother!" she complained as soon as she entered the room. "Wow, that Xu Yinglian is so disgusting, I'm telling you!"

She rattled on about Xu Yinglian, leaving Luo Yan completely speechless.

Hmm, besides princess syndrome, she's also vengeful, petty, and a gossip.

"Junior Brother! What do you think?" Shi Liuli asked indignantly.

Luo Yan:...

"Are you saying it's my fault?!" Shi Liuli's eyebrows shot up, and she put her hands on her hips, giving him a look that said, If you don't explain this clearly, I'll bite you to death.

"No," Luo Yan could only sigh. "I was just thinking, what kind of dashing figure is Kunlun's Chief Disciple Qiu Changtian? How could his Junior Sister be so vulgar?"

Fake persona, sync value +1

Although he didn't finish the second half of his sentence, Shi Liuli understood his meaning. Her face immediately lit up, and she said, "Well said! As expected of my Junior Brother. Indeed, if that Xu Yinglian were just an ordinary disciple, I wouldn't bother with her. But as Qiu Changtian's Junior Sister, she's unmotivated and instead spends her days trying to stir up gossip with her Senior Brother. I absolutely cannot stand that!"

Luo Yan was completely numb by this point, so he simply nodded along, cooperating with Shi Liuli's badmouthing. Things like "pretentious coldness" and "molting phoenix" were said, causing the sync value to soar. Eldest Young Lady Shi was overjoyed, and the anger she felt from arguing with Xu Yinglian finally disappeared completely.

"It's still Junior Brother who understands what's right," Shi Liuli said cheerfully. "Oh, right, I'm telling you, I and a few Senior Sisters and Junior Sisters have organized a society. Do you want to join, Junior Brother?"

"What kind of society?"

"It's a fan club to support and learn from Senior Brother Qiu, of course. We've tentatively named it the 'Changtian Society'."

Luo Yan almost spat up blood. You want me to join my own fan club?

But on second thought, it wasn't impossible.

If he let it go unchecked, who knew what kind of trouble Shi Liuli and her group of Senior and Junior Sisters might cause for Qiu Changtian!

I can't just stand by and do nothing!
