Beauty of the Yellow Springs

Wuling was an evil creature born of a sacrifice made by an entire nation.

She ate human hearts and drank human blood, and was wicked beyond measure.

Yet the Ziwei Emperor personally bestowed upon her the title of auspicious omen. From then on, nothing in Heaven or on Earth could stand in her way.

He gave her a new life, but she ruined his destiny as an emperor for ten lifetimes, leaving his future among the stars bleak.

So Wuling had no choice but to give herself to him, shackling herself to him for all eternity.

Qi Zuo was a crown prince of noble status.

When the emperor suddenly fell ill, Qi Zuo was hunted by rebels and, gravely wounded, fell into an ancient tomb.

Inside the tomb were paper figures indistinguishable from real people, snakes and insects guarding the grave, priceless funerary treasures beyond description, and the tomb's owner, a woman with skin like ice and bones like jade, as beautiful as an immortal.

And in the coffin where she dwelled day and night lay a skeleton.

The supposedly dead crown prince returned, bringing a beauty with him.

The beauty had red lips, pale skin, and extraordinary looks.

There was just one catch.

She had to drink the crown prince's blood day and night to see the sunlight.

She was a creature of the tomb.

And the woman he loved.

Rumors in the capital had it that the emperor would bestow upon the crown prince a principal wife: the chancellor's daughter, a refined young lady, gentle and virtuous.

In the Eastern Palace, pitying gazes turned toward the beauty seated there, her expression calm.

She held a teacup, her slender white fingertips even more lustrous and translucent than jade.

That night, the beauty's fingernails grew long and crimson, and she held them against Qi Zuo's throat.

The beauty smiled sweetly. “Since you brought me home, you must be faithful to me. If you take a wife, I'll kill one. If you take two, I'll send them both to the underworld to keep me company.”

Reader's Guide:

1. Quick transmigration, 1v1. The above is the blurb for one of the worlds.

2. The heroine is nonhuman, immortal, and has a very unusual moral compass.

3. A sweet romance. There may or may not be scumbags getting what they deserve.
