Bai Yinheng fished a little ball of a sparrow out of Luochuan's wastewater. He had never seen anything so ugly.
The sparrow had been struck by lightning and was barely alive. The demons of Luochuan had tormented it until its soul was almost destroyed.
Out of the goodness of his heart, Bai Yinheng fed it spiritual energy for a full hundred days. At last, the sparrow took human form.
Bai Yinheng: "...Tsk."
Even uglier now.
The elegant and refined Bai Yinheng sent the little sparrow off to sweep the steps, wishing he could be rid of the ugly thing forever.
But wherever he went, the "ugly crow" followed.
Bai Yinheng: "Mo Zhan, why does she keep following me?"
Mo Zhan replied without hesitation: "We demons like to cling to someone when we're courting them."
Bai Yinheng's face turned ashen.
Courting him? That ugly thing?
Outrageous!
What a disgrace!
An ugly thing dreaming above her station!
Bai Yinheng found her unbearable in every way, yet the more he saw the ugly sparrow, the more he liked her.

The elegant and radiant Immortal Lord Suyuan of the Immortal Realm was ambushed by someone and lost all his powers. He was found by A Luo, an ugly and foolish girl from Mount Wuliang, who saved his life.
A Luo had never seen anyone so beautiful. The beautiful man stroked her head, promised to stay with her for the rest of his life, and said he would repay her kindness.
But their happiness did not last. The beautiful man returned to Heaven. With nothing but a sincere heart, A Luo crossed eighty-one thunder tribulations. Yet he looked down at her coldly from on high, as if she were insignificant mud, and said only, "I don't know you." The people of the Immortal Realm mocked her. Cast down from the Ninth Heaven, she fell into the Demon Realm, where Luochuan's burning waters tormented her and demons tore at her flesh and gnawed at her bones.
Heartbroken and hopeless, she opened her eyes again. A man even more beautiful than the beautiful one was there, pouring medicine into her mouth with a look of disgust. "Ugly. How can you be so ugly? You're hideous..."
The goddess of Mount Wuliang secretly slept with a mortal and gave birth after thirty years of pregnancy to a monster, ugly in appearance and strange and solitary in nature. It crawled on all fours and grabbed food with its hands, and everyone on Mount Wuliang avoided it.
The monster fell into the Demon Realm. Its skin was flayed and its bones removed. It cast away all that came before and after, stormed the Nine Heavens, and destroyed the gods.
The world called it: "One who enters the Asura path with her own body, never to be reborn. This is an Asura."
Reader's Guide:
A tsundere Demon Lord who says one thing but means another, Bai Yinheng, x Chi Qingluo, a human-demon hybrid who starts out a little foolish and later falls to the demonic path.
The heroine is half human and half demon. She becomes beautiful later on, but not smarter. She kills people, and a great many gods and immortals. She is not a good person in the conventional sense, so read with caution if that bothers you.
The hero is arrogant early on and devoted to his wife later, putting her above all else. He will pursue her, sort of.
The story's values do not represent the author's values!!!! Let's uphold truth, goodness, and beauty!
