[Ne Zha] Born Rebellious

[New novel The Weak Husband I Picked Up in Journey to the West Is Nezha is now available. Please add it to your favorites.]

Nezha was born rebellious and fiercely independent.

Who would have thought that even among his sworn enemies, the East Sea Dragon Clan, there would be someone with a temperament just like his?

"A dragon demon from the East Sea Dragon Clan."

Nezha composed himself and looked at Ao Ling with cool detachment.

The little dragon princess smiled sweetly and obediently. "I'm a dragon immortal, big brother."

Nezha cursed her in his heart: Who's your big brother?

The little dragon demon he'd cursed: Call me that again, and I'll make you crawl.

"Say it again."

Later, Nezha, who had gradually grown fond of hearing her call him big brother, pinched her cheek. His voice was cool and his gaze smoldering.

The little dragon princess gave a cold laugh. "Am I your little sister, or your sweetheart?"

In truth, he had never received much affection growing up. So even though she'd been deceiving him that year, acting all sweet and accommodating in front of him, he was foolish enough to have already let her into his heart.

Enemies who fall in love in the first half, devoted companions in the second half. A story of mutual healing and growing together.

They marry before they fall in love (not really). First they date, then they stir up the East Sea. The female lead is a dainty, spoiled sweetheart at first, good at pretending to be obedient and charming, but she grows into herself later.

Reading Guide:

1. Mainly based on the Nezha Conquers the Dragon King episode from Investiture of the Gods. There are lots of original details and some angst, but overall it's sweet, with a happy ending.

2. They fall in love early, very early. Readers who prefer a slow burn may not enjoy it.

3. Not written for historical accuracy.

4. See the author's profile for more completed Nezha novels.

-- Upcoming: The Weak Husband I Picked Up in Journey to the West Is Nezha --

After transmigrating into the world of Journey to the West for three hundred years, Yun Jiao sees no hope of ascending to immortality. In a fit of anger, she turns to the demonic path and becomes a great demon king, living quite comfortably.

One day, her demon minions present her with a blind mortal boy who has fallen unconscious.

His face is as fair as powder, and his lips as red as rouge. He's even more alluring than Red Boy, one of her underlings.

She takes a liking to him right away. So what if he's blind? He can still give her shoulder massages and back rubs!

The Fierce Demon King Yun Jiao: "You're useless, but you're good-looking. Just focus on flirting with me. Don't ask about anything else. Understood?"

The beautiful young man has a deep look in his eyes. "Yes. I'll do as my wife says."

Though her husband is so frail he can't even take care of himself, he really is obedient to a fault and does everything she says.

Yun Jiao is quite satisfied, but her underlings start acting up more and more, repeatedly picking fights with the Celestial Court.

Sensing something is wrong, she leaves the mountain to investigate...

And catches her usually frail, blind husband fighting Red Boy like a bloodthirsty demon, his red clothes soaked in blood and murderous aura swirling around him.

Yun Jiao: ???

Who could have guessed that the frail husband she picked up for free was Nezha, the god of slaughter from the heavens?

Yun Jiao returns to her cave in a daze. Nezha has already beaten her back and changed into the white clothes she likes. He greets her with a beaming smile. "Are you tired from going out, dear? Stretch out your legs. I'll massage them for you."

Afterward, Yun Jiao's face is flushed and her head is spinning. "Don't think I can't beat you. I was just taking our marriage into account..."

Nezha: "Yes. I'll do as my wife says."

*

A mysterious and unheard-of great demon king has suddenly appeared in the mortal world.

As the journey west is about to begin, Nezha is ordered by Buddha to investigate on Earth. Disguised as a frail mortal, he is conveniently kidnapped and taken into a demon's cave as her bandit husband.

Rumor has it that she is powerful and vicious, with a hideous face that can stop children crying at night.

But when Nezha enters the cave, a waft of fragrant air greets him.

A lovely young woman speaks softly: "You're handsome... Flirt with me... %&#%... Understood?"
