As I stood on the Immortal Execution Platform, ready to jump, my husband hurried over:
“Ling Yao, don't be afraid. I'll take care of everything.”
I didn't even look at him. I jumped straight off the platform.
Because in my past life, the girl my husband brought home, his beloved Su Su, caused trouble everywhere.
First, she ran to the Supreme Lord Lao's place and scattered all the pills from his alchemy furnace across the mortal realm. Then she went to the Matchmaker's Palace and tied red strings around the wrong people.
She also released the Demon Venerable who had been sealed away, and finally leaped from the Immortal Execution Platform without a trace of hesitation.
When I heard what had happened, I wanted to tell my husband to take it easy. Instead, he pointed his sword at my nose and asked why I had forced his Su Su to her death.
I opened my mouth to explain, but the Supreme Lord Lao and the Matchmaker both rushed to my chambers and insisted that I had done all those terrible things.
Only then did I understand: they had mistaken me for Su Su. But I looked nothing like a mortal girl.
I patiently explained, but the Supreme Lord Lao brought out a replay of the past.
My face was unmistakably on it.
I was made the culprit and thrown into the Demon Realm, where the vengeful Demon Venerable killed me with a single slap.
When I opened my eyes again, I had returned to the day before Su Su caused trouble.
