Synopsis
Mutual devotion + possessive hero + devoted leads + happy ending
A sharp-tongued but softhearted goddess vs. a scheming demon lord
In a dream, Bai Jie saw a demon who would destroy the five continents and four seas. To stop him, she went to Mount Kunlun under the pretext of searching for the Primordial Fruit, hoping to find the supreme god from her dream and discuss how to defeat the demon. But she didn’t find the god. Instead, she found the Demon Lord.
The hero’s perspective:
When Mu Jinzhou became the target of everyone’s hostility, he met an extraordinary young man. He clung to this young man to get into Mount Kunlun and cultivate, and they accidentally formed a Heartbond Curse. From then on, he was always under the young man’s protection.
Years later, when they met again, he discovered that the young man he had known was actually a woman...
One day, after Bai Jie had protected him for a long time, Mu Jinzhou saw her shield someone else when a beast horde arrived. He raised his hand and killed the demon beast attacking Bai Jie.
That night, the other person brought Bai Jie flowers and confessed his love.
The flame in Mu Jinzhou’s hand wouldn’t go out...
Ever since they formed the Heartbond Curse, Bai Jie’s life had gone like this:
The day the Heartbond Curse flared up:
They ran into demon beasts.
Bai Jie: “Take out your sword and fight.”
Mu Jinzhou: “I don’t know how.”
So the two of them were chased by a three-gold lion halfway up the mountain.
They had to go to class on the mountain.
She: “Fly on your sword.”
Mu Jinzhou: “I don’t know how.”
So the two of them climbed all ten thousand and ninety-nine steps.
Everyday life:
Mu Jinzhou was being hunted. Bai Jie: “You can’t die.”
Something was wrong in Mu Jinzhou’s sea of consciousness. Bai Jie: “You can’t die.”
Mu Jinzhou had been kidnapped? Bai Jie: “You can’t die.”
