Luo Yun Yuan, son of a revered immortal, spent twelve years hidden among mortals. When Tianshu opened its mountain gates, he carried his family’s jade pendant and set out on the path to immortality.
At the academy, he met a mysterious girl named Li’er, whose eyes burned like flames. They spent seven years together, until he was expelled from the sect for breaking its rules. Three years later, they met again in the Netherworld Rift Valley. The girl from his past had become the new ruler of the Demon Realm. The Red Glass Demon King looked at him with icy eyes and no longer recognized him.
Their battle shook the mountains and shattered the seal on their memories. It turned out that everything they had shared, from the resonance between his jade pendant and her hairpin at their first meeting to their exploration of the Lihuo Caverns side by side, had been buried beneath two seals: one locked away the Demon King’s memories, and the other sealed their mortal past.
Then came an even greater mystery. Why had his father retired from the position of revered immortal? Why was the Immortal Realm investigating the Empty Spirit Dao Body? What secrets of the Three Realms did the jade pendant that could sense Chili conceal?
From the Hidden Spirit Domain to Tianshu Peak, from the Netherworld Rift Valley to the Myriad Demon Mountains, Luo Yun Yuan embarked on a journey to recover his memories, uncover his origins, and reach the pinnacle of the Dao. When the Nine Nether Demon Lord sought to overthrow the Three Realms, he ultimately proved his Dao through the laws of space and time, becoming an emperor who stood above all the heavens.
At his side stood the Demon Empress, clad in fiery red, watching the clouds drift by with him.
