After Becoming Dao Partners with the Demon Lord

The bad news: The Demon-Sealing Formation has broken.

The good news: A Xian is still alive.

The worse news: She became a cultivation partner with the demon sealed inside the formation.

To avoid being hunted by her sect, A Xian has no choice but to sneak around with her demon husband.

Fortunately, the demon never causes trouble. He even puts aside his weapons to cook for her and takes care of her in every way.

When A Xian hunts monsters and exterminates demons, the demon sometimes lends a hand, without the slightest concern for what happens to his own kind.

Apart from the rewards he asks for becoming harder and harder to handle, A Xian is generally quite satisfied with her demon husband.

Until one day, she learns from her fellow disciples that the demon by her side is not the demon that was suppressed in the Demon-Sealing Formation.

Her fellow disciples indignantly point out, "He killed every monster and demon in the formation, lived next door to you there for ten years, then tricked you into becoming his partner. He must have an ulterior motive and bad intentions!"

A Xian says, "Oh," and doesn't take it to heart.

Everyone has their secrets, don't they?

If she finds out he's up to something, it won't be hard to get rid of him then.

Having overheard A Xian talking with her fellow disciples, Yue Heng calmly picks up a fine blade and continues chopping chicken.

A Xian will be hungry soon.

Yue Heng doesn't care whether A Xian will decide to kill him, because he has always wanted to kill her too.

Killing A Xian would be easy. The hard part is making up his mind.

Back then, when A Xian fell into the Demon-Sealing Formation, he stood amid a sea of blood and corpses, weighing whether to kill her himself or watch her fall to her death.

In a moment of inexplicable impulse, he threw away his sword and reached out to catch her.

She was the one in his heart, but she had never kept him in hers.

But it doesn't matter.

Once he's finished roasting this chicken for her, he'll kill her.

Some time later.

Once he's watched this firework show with her, he'll definitely kill her.

After that.

...Once they've slept, he'll definitely kill her.

A Xian: "Hey, where's my green gauze robe?"

Yue Heng: "...Don't move. I'll get it for you."

As the personal disciple of the leader of the Sifei Sect, A Xian has outstanding talent but a truly appalling level of cultivation.

When others hunt demons, she picks up the scraps. When a great demon attacks, she runs first.

Calling her a good-for-nothing would hardly be unfair.

Until one day, her identity as the demon's partner is exposed, making him a threat to the cultivation world. Instead of doing the righteous thing and killing him, A Xian fights the entire cultivation world for his sake.

Only then does everyone realize that A Xian was never a good-for-nothing.

She is the most dangerous one of all.
