By a twist of fate, Liu Ruolan became a disciple of the head of the Hanxiao Sect. Under Yufeng's guidance, Ruolan's cultivation improved day by day, but complicated feelings also grew between her and Yufeng. After a series of events, the Demon Lord Chenyin returned and the war between immortals and demons began. Yufeng's immortal body was destroyed, and when it was remade in the mortal realm, demonic energy seeped into it. After returning from his tribulation, Yufeng was affected by the demonic energy. When he heard that Ruolan was about to marry, he could no longer restrain his desire.
The icy spring water brought Liu Ruolan back to her senses in an instant, but Yufeng suddenly pulled her into his arms. “Lan'er, don't go. Don't leave me...” His scorching kiss fell on her lips, rough and desperate.
“M-Master...” Liu Ruolan stared in terror at the Yufeng before her, both strange and familiar.

A forest steeped in demonic energy reeked of blood, the stench so foul it made one want to retch.
“Let me guess. Which will you choose?” The Demon Lord Yinchen paced around Yufeng with amused interest.
Yufeng agonized over the choice between Ruolan and Liyan. Ruolan saw every hesitation and every glance.
“No, that can't be. Master said I should trust him...” It was as if an invisible hand were squeezing Ruolan's heart so tightly she could barely breathe.
At last, Yufeng took a deep breath and looked firmly at Liyan. “I choose her.”
Ruolan lowered her eyes helplessly. Tears fell silently, and the last glimmer of hope in her heart was extinguished. Yinchen's chilling laughter was like a sharp blade
