The Rebellious Son of the Nine Heavens

On his wedding day, Chu Lingxiao, the Immortal Realm's number one wastrel, was stripped of his cultivation by a cup of poisoned wine from his fiancée. Bound by nine layers of immortal-demon shackles, he was thrown into the Ten Thousand Demon Abyss as food for demons. The whole Immortal Realm cheered: The Chu family's useless son is finally dead.

No one knew that a fragment of a Demon God's bloodline lay sealed beneath those shackles. No one knew that this wastrel, who had spent sixteen years fighting crickets and chasing dogs, had long since memorized all thirty thousand volumes of the Chu family's hidden library: pill recipes, formation diagrams, artifact manuals, and secret histories.

Su Qingxue, saintess of the Netherworld Sacred Sect in the Demon Realm, possessed a Lunar Demon Body and had been raised by her sect as a sacrificial offering. At the brink of death, the one who saved her was a human medicine slave with a gift for talking nonsense: "I can cure your illness, on one condition: you protect me."

The pills he casually refined had demon alchemists fighting over them; the formations he casually set up left every pursuer who entered lying on the ground. As for the egg he picked up, it hatched into a flat-haired beast that no one dared to provoke.

The shackles shattered one layer at a time, and his enemies came one by one. The Immortal Realm called him a demon sympathizer, while the Demon Realm called him a traitor to the immortals.

Chu Lingxiao laughed. "A demon sympathizer? My mother was a demon. A rebellious son? My father is Chu Tiankuo."

The day he crawled out of the Ten Thousand Demon Abyss, the powerful figures in the highest heavens saw their good days come to an end.
