He was Si Li, the Celestial Realm's Immortal Venerable in charge of rites, cold and composed, upright and disciplined, praised by the Three Realms for his noble character.
He was Mo Yu, the Demon Realm's young lord, proud and solitary, with a fierce, obsessive heart, willing to betray all living beings for one person.

“Si Li, in your heart... was there ever even the slightest place for me?”
“Never.”
