[Blurb]

Half-demon Bai Zhuyan was sent to the human world to take the place of the Bai family's only daughter in Jinling, who had died young. She behaved herself for twenty years, but fled in the middle of the night on the day of her wedding. At first, everything went according to plan, until she was attacked by a demon beast along the way.

With all her magic gone, she struggled to escape her pursuers. Spotting someone in the distance, cool and ethereal, with an immortal air about him, she hurried over and cried, "Immortal Lord, save me!"

The man had an exceptionally handsome face. One glance was enough to leave her dazed and captivated. "The pretty boy from my dreams should look exactly like this!"

But humans and demons were different, so she tread carefully at his side, afraid her identity would be exposed and he would cut her soul to pieces with a single stroke of his sword.

She thought she had hidden it well, until one day she could no longer keep it secret.

The man before her was still as aloof and distant as ever. Her face fell. So she really didn't have what it took to charm him.

Since she couldn't beat him anyway, she shut her eyes and steeled herself. So be it. Better to die than keep struggling and suffering inside, day and night.

Who knew that he would put away his sword, brush away the little bamboo leaf sprouting behind her ear, and sigh, "How could you be so careless? Hide it quickly, before anyone sees."

She was taken aback, then smiled sweetly. "Then from now on, I'll only let you see it, okay?"

Mu Linchao's life had been full of hardship. Born with a spiritual bone, he was fortunate enough to enter an immortal sect and cultivate the Dao. While out slaying demons, he met a runaway young lady who chattered incessantly and wouldn't leave him alone.

He had always gone everywhere by himself, and wasn't used to this at all. Tch, what a calamity.

At first, he thought the little demon was sticking around because she wanted something from him, so he had to be on his guard.

Later, protecting the young lady became second nature to him. Even after learning she was a demon, he couldn't bear to hurt her in the slightest.

But fate played a cruel trick on him, and in the end, he was the one who personally pushed her into the abyss.

[Blurb]

Liu Fanyin died on her wedding day.

She sacrificed herself to save the world and had no regrets. If there was one thing she lamented, it was the Dao companion she had left behind.

So she used a fragment of her soul to be reborn as a mortal. After a hundred years of arduous cultivation, she returned to the immortal realm, and the first thing she did was look for the one she had loved in her previous life.

But she was too late. The Lingyu Immortal Venerable, who had loved her so deeply he would have died for her, had long since vanished without a trace.

All the immortals of the Thirty-Six Heavens said that this beloved figure of the entire immortal realm had followed the Dao in death for love. Clutching the tattered wedding dress she had left behind, he had cast himself into reincarnation.

Liu Fanyin sighed and rubbed her forehead. "I knew that silly little fool would do something rash again."

After escaping the immortal realm, she found Lingyu's reincarnation in the human world, who had forgotten everything about his past life.

As luck would have it, his current identity was the very husband the late matriarch of the Liu family had chosen for her.

*

But Liu Fanyin never expected that the Dao companion who had been so deeply devoted to her in their previous life would feel not the slightest affection for her in this one. He agreed to the marriage only to obey his parents.

They had been married for barely a year when an old enemy from the immortal realm came to take revenge on her.

Song Lingyu protected his young brother and rescued his childhood sweetheart, his junior sister. Only as he was leaving did he look back impassively at his wife, lying in a pool of blood.

Liu Fanyin was gravely wounded and close to death. Desperate, she tried to read something in those familiar eyes. But blood blurred her vision, and all she could see was the man's figure growing smaller as he walked away.

After somehow surviving once more, she resolved to let go of the entanglements of her past life, ascend as soon as possible, and leave this heart-wrenching mortal realm.

So when the man who had saved her life and loved her came to propose, saying he would help her cultivate, she agreed after only a moment's hesitation.

Unexpectedly, on her wedding day, Liu Fanyin didn't get to see her groom. Instead, Song Lingyu arrived, covered in blood.

His face was pale as a ghost, and a splash of bright red blood marked his cheek. "Now we're even. Can't we part on good terms?"

Song Lingyu's eyes were red, and the tip of his sword trembled slightly as he pointed it at her.

He suddenly smiled, his voice hoarse and thick with obsession. "You wish."

[Reading Notes]

1.

- The heroine is quick with flirtatious remarks, but composed and decisive. She was immensely powerful in her previous life, but needs to level up in this one.

- The hero seems cold on the outside but is obsessive underneath, and sometimes pretends to be weak and innocent.

2. The author's first attempt at an old-school groveling-after-the-breakup story. Expect melodrama.

3. Many original elements.

Theme: Never betray true love, and see it through to the end
