The disciple I raised with my own hands turns out to be the prophesied demon star, born of my master and a demoness, whom the Heavenly Emperor wants dead. To protect him, I cut out half my spiritual roots, defy the laws of heaven, deceive the Heavenly Emperor, and make an enemy of the entire heavenly realm. After a thousand years of raising him, his gaze grows ever more feverish and dangerous. At last, his demonic power awakens, and he imprisons me deep within the Nine Heavens Palace, his fingertips tracing the scars I took for him.
“Master, the heavenly realm has wronged you. Shall I tear down the Lingxiao Palace for your sake?”
Only then do I realize that the obedient disciple I raised is actually a mad demon lord who has long been obsessed with me!
