Qingzhu and Her Cold-Hearted Snake

【Heart-wrenching love + tragic misunderstandings + a groveling pursuit + fantasy + physical and emotional anguish】 Duan Qing was once a carefree tree spirit in the Cloud Immortal Palace, but because of Li Yuan, she was exiled and turned into a demon. She loved Li Yuan so deeply, yet in the end all she could do was retreat to the mortal world with a heart gone cold. She stood timidly behind Li Yuan, watching him fall into demonic cultivation for the woman he loved and endure endless torment. Duan Qing refused to abandon him. She stayed by his side in every way she could, hoping he would turn around and look at her, just once. Until Li Yuan used their child to save the woman he loved... Duan Qing fell apart. Her battered heart could no longer bear another wound. She wanted to set herself free, so she let go and stopped clinging to him. When Duan Qing hurried to the Celestial Realm, Mu He had already revealed her true form. The demon fox shouted through her tears at the person before her, “Give me back my child!” How could the Celestial Realm tolerate a demon fox acting so brazenly? The Celestial Emperor struck Situ Mu He with a single palm, knocking her back into her original form. Red-eyed, Duan Qing rushed forward and shielded Mu He, now a little fox again. Sobbing, she cried, “You’ve already gotten everything you wanted. Why go so far as to wipe us out?” Li Yuan cast Duan Qing a cold glance, then waved his hand and threw them both from the Immortal Execution Platform into the mortal world, leaving them to fend for themselves. Duan Qing held the bloodied little fox and wept for a long time. Only when fallen leaves covered them did her tears finally stop. Enough. Enough. Love was something she could do without.
