Dual Male Leads | Mysterious Scholar × Fallen Young Lord of the Demons | Fated Bond | Adventures Across the Six Realms
“Sir, are there really demons in this world who don’t hurt people?”
As Mo Di hid in a hollow tree and tended his wounds, his thoughts were consumed by the safety of his people. He was the young lord of the Demon Realm, fleeing pursuit in the Immortal Realm in search of a life-saving stone. But disaster struck at the Pillar Reaching the Heavens. His demonic powers crumbled, and he fell into this village of mortals.
His rescuer was a tutor named Bai Yan. Every day, he led an old ox to the fields, then crouched in the corner of his courtyard to feed the chickens and ducks. His fingertips were dusted with grain chaff, yet when cultivators from the Immortal Realm pursued Mo Di, he casually drew a talisman and trapped them.
“Sir, you know how to arrange formations?” Mo Di stared at the medicine Bai Yan handed him and sensed mountains and seas hidden in the scholar’s eyes.
Bai Yan only smiled. Steam from the warm tea blurred his features. “I know a little about unorthodox arts. Enough to protect you all, and this village.”
No one knew that this oxherd scholar could divine the fortunes and calamities of the Three Realms, yet could not see through his own fate. And no one could have foreseen that the sudden appearance of a fragment of the Five-Colored Stone would entangle the village of mortals, the fate of the Demon Realm, and even the undercurrents of the Demon Domain with the two of them.
The Celestial Venerable’s decree to exterminate the demons drew ever closer, while shadows from the Demon Domain watched from the dark. When Mo Di discovered ancient divine power hidden in the formations Bai Yan had laid, and Bai Yan divined that Mo Di’s fate was bound to the survival of heaven and earth...
Only then did they realize that this chance meeting might have been destiny from the very beginning.
“Scholar or not, I’m going to protect you.”
“Then let’s protect the mortal world first, and find a way for us both to survive.”
