Reborn as the Demon Lord's Beloved

Before being reborn, Su Jinxian had reached the Deity Transformation realm. Because he trusted a scumbag, he ventured alone into the Demon Domain to steal a Blood Lingzhi, saving the righteous immortal sect that would later drive him to his death. * After being reborn, Su Jinxian cultivated the Heartless Dao. His cultivation soared, and ascension was just around the corner. Yet everyone slandered and vilified him. The scumbag was especially heartbroken, unable to believe that Su Jinxian had stopped worshipping the ground he walked on. He claimed a demonic sword had bewitched him and vowed to make him come to his senses. Su Jinxian sneered. "Scumbag, get lost." * The Demon Domain's ruler, Shan Guiyao, was a lunatic whose hobby was provoking powerful people into fighting to the death. He liked to skin people and make their hides into lanterns, hanging them at the entrance to the Demon Domain. On a whim, he decided to help Su Jinxian ascend, then kill him and take his sword. But when Su Jinxian bathed in front of him, completely unguarded, Shan Guiyao's heart went into disarray. Shan Guiyao feigned composure. "He's trying to seduce me." * Later, Shan Guiyao pinned Su Jinxian against the foot of the bed and tempted him. "Cultivate with me, and I'll help you ascend." After a moment's hesitation, Su Jinxian said, "I don't want to." A few things to know before reading: 1. This is a one-on-one romance. The love interest has an ex, but they never slept together. 2.
