On the night when the Goddess Sect was destroyed, Shen Qingci was abducted from the ruins by Demon Lord Xiao Jinyan and became a prisoner in his palm. She was originally the youngest disciple in her sect, and she had a secret love affair with her master Luo Shuheng, who was as gentle as jade. The unspoken master-disciple relationship was the most secret light in her life. But Xiao Jin hated her for leading the right path and destroying his altar, and even more paranoid about her as a substitute for his deceased wife - just because her eyebrows and eyes looked a little like the queen who died young. He threatened his senior brother's life, trapped her in the cold pool palace where the sun never shines, and used the most ruthless method to rob her body and mind. He forced her to wear the clothes of the devil and dance the dance of the devil. The word "substitute" was engraved into her bones and blood every word.
She blamed him for his indiscriminate revenge and for casting other people's shadows on her, but in their entanglement day after day, she glimpsed the broken past hidden in his frozen eyes. But her master Luo Shuheng, who was far away in the world, never gave up looking for her traces. The master-disciple relationship that was not tolerated by the world became the knife hanging in her heart and the glimmer of light that supported her survival.
Misunderstanding is the natural chasm between gods and demons, and hatred is the shackles that bind each other. He used possession as a shield to cover up the obsession that he dared not express; she used forbearance as a blade to hide her unquenchable character. When the dust-laden truth surfaced - the cause of his deceased wife's death was actually closely related to the right path, when Luo Shuheng found Hantan Palace, the choices between master and apprentice, love and hate, and good and evil were suddenly thrown down.
