[A/n: The fictional cultivation practiced in xianxia is heavily based on the real-life meditation practice Qigong. The stories usually include elements such as gods, immortals, demons, devils, ghosts, monsters, magical treasures, immortal items, medicinal pills, and the like.]
The movie, 'Scarlet Heaven', is based on the Cultivation Xianxia genre. The plot is about a master-disciple relationship. With the master being a cultivator of righteousness while the disciple falling to the side of demonic cultivation for the temptation of faster and higher cultivation techniques.
The movie is about how the disciple fell to using demonic means to protect his righteous master hated by hypocrite cultivators that envy his master's high position in their world as well for his late-stage cultivation levels which rank among the top. In this movie, the current Film Emperor Lu Ziyun played the role of the master while Xia Ying played the role of the demonic disciple.
There's a vague romantic relationship between the two but since the director removed most of the scenes that leave ambiguous sensation. The movie ended up a straight man's movie. As during the filming the silly director Wang Tian, who wanted his own lover to have even less interaction with Lu Ziyun, that the movie ended up being a harem based thing. The staff and actors could only sigh in defeat for their emperor's childishness and possessiveness.
Xia Ying on the other hand, who ended up in a clear role of having an extremely respectful position towards his master in the movie, just rolled his eyes over his lover's antics. Scarlet Heaven still had a nice ending in which the disciple sacrificed himself to eliminate the Demonic Cult that tempted him to fall in darkness as everything was done to protect his most respected master. The high face quality of the actors was a plus.
Adding up Lu Ziyun's experience as a famed Film Emperor and Xia Ying's almost perfect acting that as soon as Scarlet Heaven came out of the cinemas, people lined up to watch it with great anticipation as both the movie director and casts were all top class. In just a few months, Scarlet Heaven will become a blockbuster movie.
As Scarlet Heaven was finished, Wang Tian and Xia Ying made a few more movies together. One is directing while the other was always the protagonist of each movie.
Once this shameless couple ended up finishing 5 movies within 5 years that they've decided to take a vacation together while waiting for the awarding ceremony where Xia Ying was chosen as one of the candidates for the Best Actor Award. Their Tourism list was filled with famous spots like Forbidden City, Great Wall, Sanya Beach, etc.
Enjoying everything their country could offer, having a blissful time as lovers. While relishing the scenery in Sanya Beach, laying under the huge umbrella under the scorching sun of summer, Xia Ying had a dream about the first month of his transmigration.
Just give a clear ending to the relationship between Xia Ying and Lu Ziyun. Our MC went home straight leaving the group of reporters to barge on the stunned Film Emperor he left in their hotel room. He went back to the condominium which the film emperor gave to him.
Taking all his things, Xia Ying received a go signal from his reliable system who arranged for him a new residence within the Restricted District left to condo and head to his brand new home. After completely changing Xia Ying's silent and cold temperament to a mischievous and indifferent character, despite Xia Ying's famed appearance, no one thought of him as Xia Ying.
As they say, changing one's nature changes everyone's perspective of you. Using a transportation application on his phone to get a cab to pick him up, Xia Ying spoke to his system all the way.
"Exe can you prepare some furniture for my new house. Post Ancient fixture with a hint of modern touch. You may choose randomly. Do I have to use a redeeming ticket for it?"
[No need Host. This simple request doesn't really need anything in exchange. Things for unranked were cheap and low quality. They equate to pebbles in our Nether System with a pricing of 0. Unless the host requires to get trash materials with a size of a big company, only then Exe would need to exchange one redeeming ticket for it. Much less the host doesn't need any money. Just according to the host's savings of trillions from your original world before getting pulled here, you can be someone considered as extremely rich.]
"That's also true. My loots from before should be enough to feed me for a few worlds. Then if I need a few materials to create life changing technology I could just use my original savings to buy it?"
[Host could give me the list of materials you need and I will just deduct the cost that will be needed for the items.]
Xia Ying passed a list of materials he wanted to his system for accounting. He also let him take the cost personally to his savings without informing him. The materials he wanted were just low-tier medium-class items.
[Things that can only be found in the E Class world. Buying a few to give him acceptable satisfaction should pass through this world's custom.]
"I don't want to go hacking all the time but Xia Ying only has meager savings for this lord to spend. Exe looks for a big company in this world that is almost bankrupt and buys the ownership of it. Include the personnel and staff. I want a company that ventures in technologies."
[Found one. Already bought it over. The papers were in the processing stage but the shares and deeds were already under your name. Further orders?]
Xia Ying passed complete blueprints from his memory to his system. It's just an Elementary level program from his original world. Something made by children from where he came from.
"Once you finish that, give these two blueprints for housekeeping and transportation semi-AI controlled software templates. After creating a prototype send it together for the company but I want my own customizing, complete output. I want one soon. Tomorrow will do."
[Exe could send the host the complete output tonight.]
"I will wait for it then. Please install high-level security in the house. I want a Tech room with three retractable monitors. As for the company name I will think about it for tonight. Send orders to the company. The prototypes should be finished within a month. I want a finished product within 3 months.
I've already left a step-by-step instruction for it. There is no way for the original residents of this world to not understand that much. As they only need to assemble it at this point. Once I've thought of the company name, it will be open within this year. Half a month if they are fast. The finished product will be out of the market before the end of the year.
Tell them if they've done everything well according to my orders I will give them 30% share to be split to the first team to give me a satisfying output."
[Understood Host. Exe had completed all host's requests for the brand new house in Restricted District. The Mansion is now fully furnished and the Tech room was made. Surveillance and monitoring were connected to the Tech room as the main core. The security level of the house was upgraded to the highest possible in this world. Materials, Host needed were collected. A pair of complete finished products for Automated Cleaning Machine (ACM) and AI-driven cars have been placed in the host mansion to be checked.
The rest of the requested materials and prototypes as well as blueprints have been sent to the company when the Ownership Turnover was completed. The situation and orders the host gave were properly conveyed to the current CEO who has the current highest position after the owner, which is the host, through video call using Xia Ying's avatar which Exe controlled.
They've accepted the orders without question. The CEO will be visiting the host as soon as the finished product is made. Everything was done accordingly without traces. Please don't worry about the host.]
"Good. For now, continue monitoring the two Protagonists. I will take a rest for this day and continue my task tomorrow." said Xia Ying who just arrived in front of his mansion in the Restricted District.
After paying the fare for the cab, he passes through his mansion gate using his own registered biometrics as Xia Ying. Every asset he has in this world was under his current body's identity as Xia Ying. Once the gate scanned his right-hand biometrics the gates of the mansion he owns opened for him.
Entering the brand new house, Xia Ying took the rest of the day off and slept. Xia Ying played possum in his mansion while watching a live surveillance of the two heavenly sons of the world he is in. While spending some time home after fishing for his job, Xia Ying took control of the virtual world.
After erasing all the traces of Xia Ying's identity, leaving only a few natural bot accounts under his control, no one knows Xia Ying's real existence in the virtual realm. Hacking through a few satellites from NASA, giving them a hint of his identity as God of the cyber world, they sold him a few satellites as well. He was known as Jade. Jade his Pseudonym in the Virtual world where was considered God.
[a/n: Ying from Xia Ying's name also means Jade in English.]
One morning while he was eating his breakfast made by his automated housekeeper at the same time completely covered Xia Yang's reputation online with mud. Xia Ying passes his time while eating fruits delivered to his mansion through online transactions as he watches his twin brother's live-streamed tantrums.
On the screens before him, he watched Xia Yang throw his phone to the wall after reading his Weibo post. Defaming him as an actor and calling his whore or fake white lotus and such. They even say that he climbed on the film emperor's bed to get what he has now but what angered him the most are those posts saying good things about his twin brother, Xia Ying, for his selfless sacrifice.
Realizing that his phone had died, Xia Yang can only continue checking the latest post on his laptop. Reading thoroughly for a few minutes his rage ascended once again and this time his laptop died. In just half a day Xia Yang's phone, laptop, and tablet had all died chivalrously to ease their owner's anger. Xia Ying took a record of the whole scene.
Ding. Dong.
All of a sudden his mansion doorbell rang. The monitor that shows the frame outside his house gates illustrated a black luxurious car with a single repeating digit plate stopping in front of his mansion. Before the gate, a man in a formal suit was holding a huge bouquet made of pink peonies and black roses on his left arm and a box of full flavored macaroons.
The one bringing it is none other than a man called Yi, according to Xia Ying's database this man is that person's personal confidant. It was the driver who rang the bell for him. Xia Ying met the man called Yi by the door.
Xia Ying with his usual cold façade like the original temperament of Xia Ying. "Who might these gentlemen be?" asked politely by the actor.
Secretary Yi, who saw Xia Ying open the gates for him, bowed his head respectfully. "Sir Xia. Please accept the gifts from the Emperor." said the confidant and gently pass the bouquet of pink peonies and black roses to the young man before him.
Thinking of why he couldn't see anyone following behind the actor, Yi showed a bewildered expression. He wouldn't believe that this young man lives in this huge place without servants in it.
"I live alone," said Xia Ying while pinching the peonies and roses in his arms.
An amused smile appeared on his face. "A bouquet of Pink Peonies and Black Roses, I see." he then received the box of macaroons with his other hand. "Tell him. Next time I want tarts. The bouquet. I like it a lot."
Secretary Yi who received Xia Ying's message for his boss. Bow his head once again as he waited for the latter to enter his house. Only then this man returned to the car, taking their leave as they've finished their task.
Once Secretary Yi reported the result to the Emperor as soon as he returned, he was stunned to see his strict boss suddenly chuckling on his own. He knew that his courtship was approved by his chosen one.
The emperor murmured happily, "I should prepare tarts for tomorrow then."
This courtship continued until he and Xia Ying met for the first time in the audition of Horror Tales where they officially met face to face and had their first interaction. In the end, the pair ended up becoming a couple infamous in the whole country.
Xia Ying had a nice dream of the past. Once he opened his eyes from his short nap while sunbathing, he saw his lover kneeling before him holding a huge bouquet of orange and black roses on his right while a pair of black rings inside an exquisite box on his left hand.
Wang Tian smiled as he looked at his lover with a tender gaze and gentle smile, "My future wife will you marry me?" Asked the emperor on his knees.
While everyone's eyes were on them, a collective gasp from the audience and bodyguards led by Yi to control the people to stay in distance from the couple. This is a proposal the emperor has been planning for years.
After finally having a vacation together as a couple, Wang Tian decided to use this opportunity to propose to his move. There's commotion surrounding them but ever since the eyes of these two met all others except for each other were ignored.
Waiting for his lover's answer, Wang Tian only saw Xia Ying reach out his left hand towards him. A mischievous but real smile appeared on his beloved lips while his eyes softened only for him.
"Orange and Black roses bouquet. I love this bouquet and Yes, I shall marry only you, A'Tian," replied Xia Ying as he watched his lover put the ring on his left hand's ring finger. Instantly standing and grabbing his waist carrying him in his arms.
"Hahaha! With this, you are finally mine, Ying'er! I only love you." said Wang Tian.
Xia Ying, "I also love you." and then they've kissed.
After Wang Tian's successful proposal, the wedding was withheld because the couple were both nominated for a Golden Awards this year. Unable to leave the country, they can only spend their time planning for the wedding.
A few days later.
At the awarding location for the Golden Awards.
Xia Ying received the reward as the newly enthroned Film Emperor with Scarlet Heaven getting the Movie of the century award and Wang Tian received the Best Director of the year award.
These shameless couples whose marriage was announced during the Awarding Night flew the same day to get married abroad. As for what happened the rest of their lives, you already knew their ending.
[A/n: The meaning of the first bouquet: Pink Peony means Love at first sight while Black Roses means Obsession. The Second bouquet of Orange and Black roses. Orange Rose has a meaning which symbolizes enthusiasm and desire. If you're looking for a way to express admiration and attraction - with an underlying message of passion and excitement. This is a good choice for it.]
