Due to the changes that occurred in the storyline, many things were meant to alter. That means. Even a few arcs would be skipped. For example, the part where the male lead would have gone out to search for a cure for his eldest disciple wouldn't happen anymore since Tyler and Feng Chao became dual partners.
The second thing was that in the original storyline, no one knew that the soul could be kicked out by using the dual cultivation technique. Both Tyler and the male lead were fortunate in this aspect.
So that was why the original Master Feng had embarked on a journey with the female lead. But now, neither did his eldest disciple fall unconscious nor was there any trace of a demonic soul. So the entire arc where both the male and the female leads in the original storyline went out and faced demonic cultivators' wrath would be skipped directly to the next best thing—spreading rumors.

Tyler was sleeping soundly when the ML hugged him from behind. He turned to push his lover away, but the arms on his waist only tightened even more.
Then he heard a familiar sentence that the ML mumbled in sleep. "Want to lay a hand on him?! Hah, over my dead body!"
Tyler pursed his lips and sneaked a glance at the ML's face before kissing on his lover's lips and hurriedly pretending to sleep. After 5 mins, the ML's lips curved up indicating that he was awake.
