Blurb One:

As an unwanted child, Qing Jue was lucky.

His adoptive father was the ancient deity Qing Heng, Lord of War, and his adoptive mother was the gentle, dignified, well-read Empress Zhenzhen.

His father taught him to fight, and his mother taught him good manners.

The Celestial Worthy of Primordial Beginning personally taught him Buddhist and Daoist doctrines, and the children of the other divine clans were all his underlings.

He lived a carefree, unrestrained life.

The only thing that troubled him was that his loving parents, worried he would be lonely, had a mischievous daughter for him, then both passed away.

To care for his sister, who wouldn't let anyone else touch her, he took charge of everything, from feeding and bathing her to putting her to bed.

To bail his troublemaking sister out of one mess after another, he fought his way through every challenge and became the God of War of the Six Realms.

In the end, he still couldn't stop his sister from getting herself into trouble yet again. She was exiled to Soul Valley, demoted from a revered celestial deity to a keeper of souls.

He thought that after thirty thousand years in exile, his forgetful sister, who loved getting into trouble, might have learned some restraint. But this time, she not only got herself into trouble, she also tried to drag her brother into the tangled affairs of the mortal world. She even forced the Demon Princess Zhi Yao, her old friend, on Qing Jue, making him experience a love across generations, as well as a bittersweet romance between a god and a demon...

Blurb Two:

It is a closely guarded secret among the Celestials that Qing Jue, Emperor of the Ninth Heaven, is not the biological child of his parents. What they don't know is that he is also the Demon Lord reincarnated.

In his previous life, when his close friend, the Demon Sovereign Han Yi, plotted to attack the Celestials, Qing Jue chose to help Qing Heng escape captivity for the sake of all living beings. As a result, the demon clan was defeated and forced to retreat.

Overcome with guilt toward Han Yi, he resolutely chose to destroy his soul and vanish from the world.

Unexpectedly, Qing Heng gave up ten thousand years of cultivation to save him, making him his adopted son.

Many years passed. After his parents ascended to immortality, Qing Jue raised his young sister to repay them for bringing him up, and gradually uncovered the mystery of his own origins.

Ten thousand years went by, but the entanglements of love and hatred were not erased by the passage of time. Instead, they became even more deeply etched into the heart.

His former close friend, now both his brother and his enemy, was someone he ultimately chose to sever ties with. He personally sent the person he both loved and hated plunging into the Kunlun glaciers, never to rise again.

Blurb Three:

The Celestial deity Qing Jue, Emperor of the Celestials, has lived for a mere 110,000 years, yet his heart has never stirred. Most Celestial women are beautiful and proud, but he has fallen for his sister's best friend, Zhi Yao, a forthright and easygoing Demon Princess with an exotic charm.

Unfortunately, Zhi Yao's father, the Demon Lord Chang Kong, has always both respected and resented Qing Jue. How could he let his precious daughter marry a decrepit old man her own age?

But Zhi Yao couldn't care less. To her, Qing Jue is the only man in the world she could ever love. She is even willing to brave the Three Thousand Divine Stairs and endure every hardship to walk beside him.

Fortunately, the one her heart loves is finally hers, and their story has a happy ending.
