[Carefree, sweet girl VS irritable, ruthless devoted lover]

The Demon Venerable, who had slept for a thousand years, was about to awaken. Keeping their promise, the great clans were to offer the best woman from each sect to the demon clan.

Ye Tang had always been barely noticed in the Qianhua Sect, and she only heard about this three days later.

It wasn't her elder sister, Ye Mi, who was sent to the demon clan. It was her.

Ye Tang had long stopped caring. Ye Mi got all the good things, and she got all the bad things.

Every good thing had to go to Ye Mi first. And in a situation like this, of course Ye Tang would be the one to take the fall.

After being sent to the demon clan, the only good news was that the Demon Venerable hadn't woken up yet. When he did, he had amnesia, and his magic seemed a little weaker, too.

But he was still more than strong enough to deal with her.

Wanting to stay alive a little longer, Ye Tang began deceiving the Demon Venerable, telling him they had once loved each other and had only been forced apart by their families...

Not a single word out of her mouth was true. Even when other women from the great clans were sent in later, she still managed to fool the Demon Venerable.

Little did she know that the bloodthirsty, short-tempered, cold-hearted Demon Venerable had known all along that she was lying.

Until the day he blurted out to Ye Tang, "You little liar."

Ye Tang thought she was done for.

I, this venerable one, fell for a liar. Every time, she tells me unrealistic things to deceive me.

Back then, I thought there weren't many entertaining things around, so I kept her. If I got bored of her later, I'd kill her.

Later, I realized I might have started to like her a little. Just a tiny bit.

Until I wanted her to become the Demon Empress and stay by my side forever.

Sadly, on our wedding day, she coughed up blood and collapsed into my arms, as if in terrible pain. She touched my face and whispered in a faint, tiny voice, "From now on... I won't lie..." Before she could finish, her life slipped away.

The tear at the corner of her eye felt as if it had fallen straight into my heart.

Holding her, I thought, if only she were lying to me this time.

Reader's guide: The heroine is forced to lie at first.

The heroine has no magic, and never will.

There are no substitute-lover tropes between the leads.

They love each other in both their past and present lives.

I'll add more if I think of anything.
