Xiao Shengduan is the one and only disciple of the famed Sword Master, Yue Rushuang.

To the world, he’s seen as unbelievably lucky. But only Xiao Shengduan knows what Yue Rushuang is really like behind closed doors.
“Your stance is wrong. Again.”
“Your sword wind was off by an inch. Again.”
“You’re half a moment late today—add another hour of training.”
Far from being doted on, he’s treated with near-military harshness!
One day, after yet another brutal training session, Xiao Shengduan finally snaps.
His small hands tremble on his sword hilt, tears clinging to the corners of his eyes as he cries out, “You don’t deserve to be called a Master! All you do is ab*se me!”
ab*se?
Yue Rushuang narrows his phoenix eyes, silently draws his life-bound sword, and tilts his disciple’s chin with the icy blade.
He watches, satisfied, as Xiao Shengduan’s trembling pauses—before escalating into a full-body shiver.
“I wasn’t aware.”
Yue Rushuang thought he was just scaring the kid a little. But Xiao Shengduan’s face flushed red with fury, and he began sobbing again.
“It is ab*se! Up at sunrise, sleep past midnight—that’s the schedule of a farm animal!”
Unmoved, Yue Rushuang coldly lifted his chin further and said with mock cruelty, “Very well. If that’s what you believe, your new name shall be Xiao Chusheng1.”
Xiao Shengduan choked mid-sob and turned his face away indignantly:
“I don’t want it!”
As if he hadn’t caught the pun—“Xiao Chusheng” sounds just like “little bastard.”
So much for that aloof, noble reputation… Yue Rushuang was clearly cold-blooded and vengeful to the core!
Later, Yue Rushuang has a long, vivid dream—
In it, his only disciple lives a miserable life after Yue’s death, mistreated by the sect. To protect a relic left behind by his master, Xiao Shengduan even takes his own life.
“I’m sorry, Master. I couldn’t protect your things…”
Yue Rushuang watches helplessly as his beloved disciple dies, the dream so real it leaves him shaken.
But when he opens his eyes, he sees a bright-eyed Xiao Shengduan—young, full of life, running up to greet him.
“Master, you’re back from seclusion?”
Cheerful and full of energy, he’s nothing like the broken boy from the dream.
Unsure whether the dream was a warning or illusion, Yue Rushuang makes a decision,
He must train Xiao Shengduan even harder—to ensure he has the power to protect himself.
…But this kid is way too delicate. Before the plan’s even a tenth complete, he’s already screaming that Yue isn’t fit to be a master.
Yue Rushuang can only laugh in disbelief.
This child still needs to be beaten into shape.
