That day, Yao Ali found a beautiful young man on the verge of death in the woods. Twenty-four soul-devouring nails pierced his heart every day, leaving him wishing he were dead.
The kindhearted little witch couldn't bear to see him suffer, so she formed a shared-fate gu with him to share his pain.
One day, the little witch came to find him in the back hills and slipped him a small note. "I'm leaving. Once you regain your divine powers, you can break the shared-fate gu yourself. I've written the method on the paper!"
"Take care of yourself, okay? Don't get hurt again."
Yan Jingchao scoffed and couldn't be bothered to give her another glance. Only later did he learn that the little witch was about to marry far away.
On her wedding day, Yan Jingchao watched the young woman climb into the divine phoenix wedding sedan, joyfully hurrying off to the man she loved.
He thought that shared-fate gu had a powerful aftereffect: his heart hurt more and more, all the way to his very core.
On her wedding night, Yao Ali's immortal husband drained her divine marrow, tore out her bones and sinews, and threw her into the Demon Abyss. She didn't think it hurt that much.
Later, she used gu magic to rebuild her body. Even the pain of being reborn through the flames was bearable. She stormed the Immortal Capital for revenge, then was struck by heavenly lightning for killing a god. Her bones shattered one by one, and yet... she was still alive.
With a life that stubborn, Yao Ali didn't know what to say. She lay quietly in the damp Demon Abyss, waiting to die.
Someone came quietly and gathered her broken body, then fed her warm blood from his heart every day.
She opened her eyes and saw the fallen young man she'd saved years ago, now wearing a black brocade coat. Yan Jingchao, now lord of the Demon Abyss, looked at her coldly. "I owe you a life. Now we're even."
Yao Ali noticed the blood-red gu mark on the young man's pale wrist.
She tried to look closer, but the Demon King coolly covered it with his sleeve.
As the heavenly lightning shattered his bones, Yan Jingchao, who had endured most of the agony, knelt at the bottom of the Demon Abyss, his mind blank.
All he could remember was a girl who'd cut her hand on a knife and tearfully said, "Yan Jingchao, I'm afraid of pain."
"Don't be afraid."
"I'm here."
