Lanterns in Broad Daylight: The Deity’s Secret Identity Is Exposed, and the General Spoils Her Rotten

He Simu is the queen of the spirit realm and has lived for eight hundred years. Betrayed one day, she loses her divine powers and falls into the mortal world.

To stay alive, she is forced to form a "life-and-death pact" with Duan Xu, the most virile iron-blooded general in the Nine Provinces. Pretending to be a frail orphan with amnesia, she mooches off the general’s household.

At first, Duan Xu regards the delicate young woman who hides behind him whenever thunder rolls with icy disdain: "This is a military camp. We don’t feed freeloaders."

Later, evil spirits surround the city, the apocalypse descends, and everyone’s existence is mysteriously erased.

Duan Xu, covered in blood, stands in front of her, eyes blazing red: "A-Mu, don’t be afraid. As long as I’m alive, no one can lay a hand on you!"

Looking at the man’s wound, deep enough to expose the bone, He Simu sighs and thinks, Mortals are such a hassle.

The next second, she drops her frail-girl act and shatters every evil spirit in the city with a single palm strike!

Turning to meet Duan Xu’s stunned gaze, He Simu sheepishly rubs her flushed earlobe. "General, if I say I’m just a little stronger than average, will you believe me?"

Duan Xu: "...You call cleaving the Heavenly Dao in half with one sword 'a little stronger'?"
