[Sweet on the Outside, Dark Within] [Faked Death] [Yandere] [Two Powerful Leads] [Marriage First, Love Later]
A story about two sweet-on-the-outside, dark-within leads, and a long, painful journey to win back love.
During a training trial for Qingyang Immortal Sect disciples, someone sabotaged the group, and a mirage demon lured them into the Demon Realm's Four Directions City. Shi Wan came to their aid. Along the way, she encountered two great demon beasts and a Shen family cultivator she had been searching for for years.
Demon Lord Fu Rong of Yanhua was gravely wounded during an internal upheaval. To raise his cultivation as quickly as possible, he set his sights on Qingyang's abundant spiritual energy. He had tampered with the immortal sect's disciple trial, then rescued a direct disciple amid the chaos, hoping to use that favor to gain entry to Qingyang Mountain. Instead, he unexpectedly learned he had a fiancée...
The Zhuxue Peak was decked out in festive decorations. Fu Rong asked, baffled, "What are they doing?"
Shi Wan replied, "Getting ready for our wedding!"
The immortals cried, "Wait! Grand-Aunt, aren't you cultivating the Heartless Dao?"
When people thought of loving couples in the immortal sects, they thought of Fairy Mingluan, Shi Wan, and her wandering cultivator husband, who couldn't even summon a spirit sword. Every step she advanced on the Heartless Dao, she fell back a step, and being struck by heavenly lightning had become commonplace.
Everyone called her a lovesick fool. But when the identity of the husband she had so carefully cherished was exposed, she raised her sword within the sect's protective formation and unleashed her deadliest attack against him...
She lost, dying in Fu Rong's arms as her soul was destroyed in the blazing Glass-Cleansing Flame.
Shi Wan had let a wolf into her home and suffered the consequences, becoming a cautionary example in the immortal sects' lessons for their disciples.
In the Extreme Abyss Palace, Demon Lord Fu Rong hated a female cultivator with all his heart for deceiving him. He bound her soul for years, denying her reincarnation.
In the dead of night, he bent over Shi Wan and wept. "Wanwan, you lied to me. I hate you!"
