The Cool and Aloof Immortal Venerable Wants to Be My Cultivation Furnace

Yun Menghuan was a hibiscus flower demon. She was reborn.

In her previous life, she fell in love at first sight with a scholar and did all sorts of mortifyingly foolish things before finally winning his promise: "We'll grow old together and never leave each other."

On their wedding day, a cold sword pierced her chest. Only then did she understand that she had been nothing more than the scholar's tribulation of love.

The scholar killed his wife to prove his Dao without the slightest hesitation, utterly at ease with it.

But the scholar was no scholar. He was Immortal Lord Qingheng of the Ninth Heaven, who cultivated the Dao of Supreme Detachment. How could he possibly care for a mere flower demon?

In this life, the moment Yun Menghuan opened her eyes, she was back on her wedding day. The room was awash in red, and the festive dragon-and-phoenix candles seemed like a cruel joke.

The Yun clan had a secret art.

They say an immortal lord's primordial yang is a potent tonic.

In this life, she would make him her ladder to the heavens.

Later, Yun Menghuan became the Demon Emperor.

At the Demon Palace in the Ninth Heaven, Qingheng walked barefoot along the three-thousand-mile road of thorns, step by step, blood staining the stone stairs.

"The Immortal Venerable certainly keeps his word. With that, our debt is settled."

"What if I want more than that?"

"Negotiations require leverage, Immortal Venerable."

"I hear Your Highness is still in need of a furnace partner. I may not be much, but I'm willing to try."

Theme: Love comes from nowhere, yet runs deep.
