Back to the Demon King’s Youth

Li Qingci and Baili Yan originally belonged to two different worlds. One was the favored daughter of an immortal sect, while the other was a great demon feared throughout the Three Realms.

Later, Li Qingci became a cripple, spurned by everyone. Yet the great demon Baili Yan brought her back from the ruins, gave her the finest medicine, piled her with expensive jewelry, and doted on her like a precious treasure.

The truth was, they barely knew each other, and she had no idea what this lunatic was thinking.

The day Li Qingci died, the weather was beautiful, with a gentle breeze. The great demon, who could make countless people vanish with a snap of his fingers, wept uncontrollably, his face full of pain and unwillingness.

When Li Qingci woke again, she had returned to a hundred years earlier. She was still a bright and bold young woman of the immortal sect, while the future great demon, whose name alone would make people tremble, was still young.

Young Baili Yan was silent and humble, despised by everyone, like a beast struggling in the mud. He had long since grown used to it, believing his whole life would be this way.

Until one day, the radiant Li Qingci appeared before him and held out her hand.

The youth looked up in shock and met her smiling face.

"Don't be afraid. I'll protect you from now on."

Shi Yunchu was a female demon lord hated by the righteous immortal sects. One day, she suffered a cultivation deviation and lost her memories.

When she woke, she was in the largest sect of the immortal world, and had become the wife of Jiang Chengjing, the supreme sword cultivator.

It was said that the supreme sword cultivator's wife was always frail. He had never brought her before the public, claiming it was to care for her, and no one knew what she looked like. They had only heard that she was beautiful and delicate.

As the supreme sword cultivator, Jiang Chengjing was handsome and heroic. He was a revered swordmaster and the object of countless female cultivators' admiration. Yet he never approached women, showing affection only to the wife by his side.

Though Shi Yunchu had lost her memories, her husband was gentle and considerate, so she had no regrets.

Until the day Jiang Chengjing celebrated her birthday. After the festivities, he took her to a secret chamber. A crystal coffin stood in its center, with a lovely beauty lying inside.

Jiang Chengjing gazed at the beauty with longing and told Shi Yunchu that this was his true wife.

He had kept Shi Yunchu by his side only because her blood could be used in medicine. Blood taken from her heart at the height of her agony was a perfect catalyst, one that could bring his wife back to life.

Twenty-four steel spikes were driven into her body. Her heart was cut out, and Jiang Chengjing coldly collected the blood from it.

His beloved was successfully revived.

Shi Yunchu's broken body was casually discarded.

Her familiar memories returned, and Shi Yunchu finally remembered: she was the supreme ruler of the demon realm.

To celebrate his wife's return from the dead, Jiang Chengjing sent invitations to the various immortal sects. At the gathering, Shi Yunchu descended from the sky atop a flying giant beast, landing before Jiang Chengjing, who stood at the head of the assembly.

Meeting Jiang Chengjing's stunned gaze, she smiled, speaking slowly, each word icy cold.

"The immortal sects dared to humiliate me. Today, I will bathe them in blood."
