Blurb:

Ruan Li is a tiny sea-moon jellyfish spirit. She's afraid of hot water and hard objects.

While undergoing a tribulation, she accidentally wanders into a strange tale and becomes the eldest daughter of a disgraced immortal family, exiled to a bitterly cold land.

Her family is poor, and life is hard. To support herself and her family, she sets her sights on the original owner's unseen fiance, an immortal lord. She sets up a fortune-telling stall and uses his reputation to make a fortune.

After all, this place is far from the emperor's reach. He can't do anything about it.

Then one day, just after she sets up her stall, her first customer arrives: a handsome, incredibly wealthy young nobleman.

"Can you really tell everything?" he asks.

"Of course. My fiance is the most distinguished young lord in the cultivation world, and he personally taught me," she promises, thumping her chest.

The nobleman gazes at her coldly. "Oh? I don't remember ever teaching you."

Ruan Li: Should I run, or get down on my knees?

Because of a promise made by their elders long ago, Helan Ling is forced to marry Ruan Li.

He dislikes this marriage forced upon him, and he dislikes her love of money.

So he neglects her and bullies her. Everyone knows that their marriage is in name only.

Then one day, they both fall into a hot spring. The woman he can't stand leaps onto him, on the verge of tears. "Husband, hurry and get me out! I... I'm about to boil!"

Reading guide:

* The heroine is a jellyfish: an adorable tentacle girl.

* The beginning is a little slow to warm up. The married life starts from the first chapter.

* Plenty of author-created worldbuilding, with both sweet and bittersweet moments. This is a romance, not a power-leveling story.

Blurb for the upcoming story:

The demonic path runs rampant, while the immortal world declines.

Sang Tao, a young disciple of the Acacia Sect who has never left her sect, is entrusted with a dangerous mission: infiltrate the Demon Sect, discover the weakness of the Demon Lord Ning Chen, and kill him in one stroke.

Sang Tao is lucky. In her first month at the Demon Sect, she discovers that Ning Chen has a familiar "illness."

By day, he is cold, heartless, and keeps everyone at a distance. At night, he locks himself inside a secret chamber and endures the agony of boiling blood and burning flesh.

Sang Tao writes to her sect: I have a chance. Come quickly.

That very night, she receives a reply: The time isn't right. Save him first.

Sang Tao can't understand why she has to save him, but she does as instructed and sneaks into the secret chamber. She uses herself as medicine, and after several days, finally relieves Ning Chen's suffering.

Later, the sect is still defeated by Ning Chen. He massacres the cultivation world to avenge his clan, wiped out years ago, but leaves her alive.

Sang Tao finally learns that Ning Chen knew all along she was an undercover agent and deliberately fed her false information. And the only reason he kept her by his side was that his childhood sweetheart needed her spiritual energy.

On a day when peach blossoms blaze, she leaps from the Cliff of Rebirth before his eyes, her soul scattered into nothingness.

Later, rumors say that after her death, the decisive and ruthless Demon Lord suddenly went mad. He rallied the demon armies of the world to attack the Underworld, all to find a single wisp of her soul.

Meanwhile, the Underworld's little princess, adored by her father and brothers after successfully completing her tribulation and returning home: Huh?
