On the Run with a Demonic Cult Villain

Blurb:

When Yu Ruosu first arrives in the Canglan cultivation world, she finds it in turmoil as demons and monsters rise, while her family is falling into decline.

She tells herself: Don't worry, I have a natural sacred constitution and extraordinary talent. I'll cultivate, advance through the ranks, turn the tide, and restore my family!

But her aunt tells her that people with a natural sacred constitution are just tools, born to save the world and doomed to die young.

Yu Ruosu: ...

Do I have to become a useless cultivator just to stay alive?

Yet the world is unpredictable, and even being useless proves impossible.

Her elder brother leaves home, her younger sister flees an arranged marriage, and Yu Ruosu calmly takes her sister's place as the bride.

But she is abducted the day before her wedding ceremony.

Li Yang, a beautiful and refined man from the demonic path, has features like a painting.

Passing through the Central Region, he is surrounded by a group of righteous sects. To escape, he abducts a bride.

Li Yang: "Miss, forgive me. Help me get away, and I'll let you go home."

Yu Ruosu: "All right."

Then Li Yang, the demonic rogue, goes back on his word and refuses to let her go.

Yu Ruosu, calm and composed just as her name suggests, simply goes along with him.

Li Yang: "You have a wild streak, young lady, and I like it. Would you be my demonic wife?"

Yu Ruosu: ...

She says, "Let's talk about something else."

Li Yang: "Do you know about the natural sacred constitution?"

Yu Ruosu: ...

Damn it, there's no way to change the subject now!
