Bai Zhi suffered through three hundred years in the Bitter Cold Abyss alongside Xuan Xiao, repeatedly cutting her wrists to give him blood and keep him alive.
When they finally escaped, Xuan Xiao swore before all the demons that he would marry her.
But then his old love, Lin Qingxue, cried and made a scene, pretending to hurt herself. Xuan Xiao cast his old vows aside and tricked Bai Zhi into giving up her spiritual blood to save the woman he loved.
