Just as Demon Venerable Sui Ci was about to claim supremacy over the immortal, mortal, and demon realms, he discovered that the remnants of the divine realm had reversed time at the cost of their lives. In the blink of an eye, everything returned to five hundred years earlier.
At this point, he was still a useless five-year-old, and lying beside him was his older brother, the so-called future Child of the Heavenly Dao.
Soon, the celestial goddess would save his brother and all living beings by extracting Sui Ci's evil bone and destroying his pupils. She would strike while he was weak and take his life.
With a ruthless heart and a cruel hand, Sui Ci could survive. He stole the identity of the Child of the Heavenly Dao, watching as the goddess Luo Lele abandoned the real Child of the Heavenly Dao in a pit filled with thousands of corpses for his sake, the impostor. She risked her life for him, exhausted all her cultivation, and turned white-haired overnight. She even returned to the immortal realm for him and wanted to become his cultivation partner.
Every day, Sui Ci looked forward to the day the deception would be exposed.
On their wedding day, demonic energy surged into the heavens as Sui Ci led his army to wipe out the last remnants of the divine realm.
Luo Lele stood by the edge of the Soul Devouring Abyss in her bright red wedding robes. The sharp wind howled, and her dark hair whipped about, hiding her face.
She asked, "Sui Ci, was there ever a moment when you believed me?"
Sui Ci sneered. "Lele, don't be foolish. I'm a demon."
Immortals and demons could never follow different paths to the same destination. Luo Lele turned and jumped into the Soul Devouring Abyss, leaving no remains.

Under Demon Lord Sui Ci's rule, life in the three realms was miserable and dark. For the sake of a lingering soul in the Soul Devouring Abyss, he sacrificed ten thousand people. Then the Child of the Heavenly Dao from the divine realm and the goddess Luo Lele became cultivation partners and returned to the demon realm to fight him.
A fake was still a fake. Sooner or later, what he had stolen would have to be returned.
Sui Ci went completely mad. He grabbed Luo Lele by the throat in disbelief. "You actually washed away the Heartbound Mark I branded on you?"
Luo Lele looked at him coldly as he seized the opportunity to strike.
Sui Ci lowered his head. Blood ran from his chest, where there was nothing inside. He seemed not to feel a thing. Smiling faintly, he took her hand and pressed it farther in. "Do you want this heart, Lele? It's right there with you."
"You washed away the Heartbound Mark? It doesn't matter. I'll brand it on you again, all right, Lele?"
