From the day Jiang Ci was born, she was said to have the fate of the Heavenly Wolf Star. Her spiritual power was immense, and the spirit realm named her the God of Slaughter. She was the sharpest blade of the Phoenix Clan.
When war broke out with the demon realm, the Phoenix Clan's royal family retreated to the Ghost Mountain region.
They left her alone to face the demon realm's countless troops, never once considering that she was a woman too, and might be afraid.
On the day Jiang Ci died, three thousand flames consumed the Phoenix Palace.
Wearing white armor, she plunged from the city tower like a moth to a flame. From then on, the flames went out, and the Phoenix Palace was buried.
Five hundred years later, the gates to the depths of the Yellow Springs were breached. The Demon God of legend, said to be capable of destroying heaven and earth, stormed into the underworld and kicked every wandering ghost down to the mortal realm to be reincarnated.
Jiang Ci: ???
What a stroke of luck!
Jiang Ci was reborn with her memories intact. She never expected that, five hundred years later, the laws of heaven and earth would have been remade by the Demon God. She looked at the declining immortal realm and the trend of everyone cultivating demonic magic.
She resolutely entered the demon realm to become a low-ranking demon cultivator.
But she never expected that the Demon God seated high above would be dressed in immortal robes, with a handsome face and cold eyes, and seem to be someone she once knew.
It was none other than Lord Wuheng, the immortal she had ravished and then publicly broken off her engagement with five hundred years ago.
Jiang Ci tried to run, but someone grabbed her wrist. The handsome man's eyes were dark with restrained emotion as he gazed at her. His fingers caressed her face as he said with a cold laugh, "I spent five hundred years looking for you. Where do you think you can run?"
Bonus scene:
Wuheng was renowned across the Six Realms for his immortal arts and peerless beauty, and countless legends were told about him. But in the end, nobody expected this exceptionally gifted immortal lord to abandon immortality and enter the demonic path, taking on both the entire immortal realm and the demon realm.
Everyone said he did it to avenge his fiancée, the Fairy Jiang Ci, who had died tragically in the battle between immortals and demons before they could marry.
Jiang Ci didn't believe them.
Until much, much later, when she was lying in Wuheng's arms and asked him about it.
Wuheng said nothing. In his memories, three thousand flames burned that day as the woman he loved fell from the city tower.
He swore an oath.
He would make everyone who owed her pay her back, one by one.
And for what he owed her, he would repay with himself.
