After I Lured My Childhood Friend into Becoming an Incubus

Before she set out to seek immortality, Xie Lanyi had a childhood friend with whom she shared a deep bond.

In their youth, Yu Xingzhou was mild-mannered and taciturn, and so stubborn that he always made her angry. Later, she became the foremost disciple of the immortal sect, while his dullness kept driving them farther apart.

During the ten years Xie Lanyi spent on the run, branded a traitor who had fallen to the demonic path, she would sometimes think of him.

Reborn, Xie Lanyi promptly embraced the demonic path and became the new Demon Lord of the Demon Realm.

No longer following the course of her previous life, she met Yu Xingzhou again. His back was straight, his expression composed, and his cool, clear bearing was like moonlight falling into a mountain spring.

He came to negotiate peace between the immortals and demons, while she let her desire for destruction grow. Barefoot, she stepped on his shoulder and made him prostrate himself before her, whipping at the limits he refused to abandon.

The path of revenge was lonely and hopeless. Neither the immortal sect nor the demons were her home, so

Stay by my side as you did before, Yu Xingzhou.

She thought she had won a loyalty unique in all the world, until he stole the Demon Realm’s greatest treasure.

So much for a scholar’s noble principles, unsullied by worldly ambition. He had been lying to her!

The demons’ bounty notice was posted on every street and lane. Yu Xingzhou was as cunning as a white fox in the snow, and every time they crossed swords, the battle was brutal.

Whenever she caught him, she could never bring herself to kill him.

Taking pleasure in the hatred that appeared on his handsome, refined face, she pinned him beneath the bed curtains.

Later, Yu Xingzhou sacrificed himself for the Way.

No one in the world could ever sway the Demon Lord again. She would become ruler of all under heaven.

But Xie Lanyi stepped down from the throne.

She had thought her revenge would leave the mortal world in ruins, but someone had already planted a field of flowers where she had lain in eternal sleep in her previous life. The souls of the unjustly dead would be reborn there. The people lived in peace, and no one was left homeless.

Yu Xingzhou’s life was short. He sacrificed everything, and when he died, love and hatred alike had faded away. Yet the things he left behind were filled with the depth of his feelings for Xie Lanyi.

Happy ending!!
