Fu Jiang never imagined she would have anything to do with Song Xuan.
One was a demon who had slaughtered countless people, someone everyone avoided. The other was a cool, upright sword cultivator, respected by all.
Then one day, she fell into the human realm, her demon core shattered and her cultivation diminished.
To return to the demon realm, she forcibly formed a bond with Song Xuan, even though she knew he loved another woman. They became Dao companions.
When Song Xuan announced that he had a Dao companion, people in both realms stared in shock.
Mini Scene 1:
A sword-cultivating genius, renowned for his self-discipline and seen only once in a century, had actually become Dao companions with a woman whose cultivation was only at Foundation Establishment!
The woman was terribly frail, coughing several times with every step. Song Xuan indulged her, bending down to lift her into his arms. She naturally draped a hand over his shoulder. Though Immortal Lord Song’s voice was cool, there was a hint of indulgence in it. “You can’t walk anymore? Why didn’t you tell me?”
“...”
Later, when Fu Jiang’s identity was exposed, everyone learned that Immortal Lord Song’s Dao companion was no low-level cultivator. She was the demon king who inspired terror in both realms!
Mini Scene 2:
On the night she forcibly bound him, Song Xuan was deeply unwilling. He used all his strength to break free.
Fu Jiang gave him no chance. She lifted her eyes, took his hand, and slowly clenched her fingers, pressing them between his until their fingers were interlaced. Her crimson lips brushed Song Xuan’s cold ones as she whispered:
“Song Xuan, I tried being nice. Why won’t you listen?”
“Once my cultivation recovers, I’ll break our bond.”
“After that, you can still pursue the woman you love.”
For some reason, Song Xuan grew even angrier when he heard that.
Later, Song Xuan was trapped in a deadly formation. To save him, she entered his consciousness.
Only then did Fu Jiang learn that he had secretly loved her for years, even before he joined the Wujian Sect.
From beginning to end, she was the one he loved.
