For the first few centuries of his life, Han Jinqiu was the most gifted demon on the Nine Nether Continent. He could get anything he wanted and lived a life of carefree indulgence.
Yet no one knew that behind the ghost mask worn by this seemingly ruthless asura lord was a pair of tender eyes that would redden at the slightest provocation.
Han Jinqiu: Is that my fault? I really can't help crying whenever I get worked up!
Fortunately, no one in the Nine Nether dared to remove his mask. He had also learned to keep quiet when appropriate, lest anyone hear the tears in his voice. That was how he managed to keep his secret hidden.
Then, on the day he was appointed Demon General and granted the Demon Lord's feather token before all the demons of the Nine Nether, an unwelcome guest from an immortal sect completely upended his peaceful life.
The instant his ghost mask was knocked off, a book titled A Sword Shakes the Nine Heavens appeared in Han Jinqiu's mind.
He realized, to his horror, that he was the most pitiable number three gong in the book.
Not only did he fail to win the protagonist shou's love, he was also hated for his many vile deeds. In the end, the protagonist shou stabbed him through the chest and kicked him into the Ten Thousand Demons Abyss.
After witnessing his miserable future, Han Jinqiu's eyes instantly reddened.
How could this happen? You can't just bully me like this!
But he was so busy feeling wronged that he forgot his mask had fallen off. Everyone present saw his tearful expression.
Demon Lord of the Nine Nether: So my Demon General is a jade-faced asura! Such a lovely face hidden behind a ghost mask. What a waste.
Young Lord of the Demon Capital: I want you to look at me like that every day. Yes, only me. I won't let anyone else see you like this!
A random unwelcome guest from an immortal sect: This book must be wrong, right? How could I not fall for the number three gong if he looks like this? That's it, I'm claiming him!
Han Jinqiu, unaware that he's attracted a pack of wolves: (picks up the ghost mask, dusts it off, puts it on) It should still be soon enough to run away now... right?
#Everyone has the script, but nobody follows it#

Scheming, overpowered, sharp-tongued gong x pampered, weepy, fierce shou who cries while cutting people down
Both pure, 1v1
