The Wife I Proved the Dao With Has Returned

On their wedding day, his Dao companion led several major sects in exterminating the entire Murong family on trumped-up charges.

Swordheart Pavilion was framed for betraying the Dao, while his Dao companion was welcomed into the Immortal Realm for killing a demon in the name of righteousness and putting family duty above all else.

Murong Yue finally understood: he was the wife his husband had killed to prove his Dao.

He was cast into the abyss and died on his wedding night.

He saw ghost butterflies bloom in the blood-soaked air, dark purple demonic vines crawl out of the swamp, and an unknown spirit gu awaken beneath the red moon. It spat out glistening tendrils and devoured his body completely.

But he could no longer feel the pain of the gu poison consuming him. Amid boundless regret and cold, he sank into eternal sleep.

Many years later, a handsome young man awakened him.

Mysteriously granted a new life, he became the most venomous gu in the world. He no longer feared the cold or felt pain.

He heard that the person he hated most had changed beyond recognition, becoming a prodigy of the Immortal Realm. Yet whenever people spoke of him, they always mentioned the beloved late wife he had mourned for years.

Murong Yue sneered without a word.

He put on a mask and returned to the world of the living, then sought out this favored son of heaven with the little crown prince of the Phoenix Clan who had awakened him at his side.

The man looked at him as if his eyes were reddening and asked, "You remind me of someone I once knew. Who are you?"

Beneath the mask, Murong Yue silently scoffed.

I am your dead Dao companion, here to claim your life.

"(Attacker's perspective)"

The little crown prince of the Phoenix Clan had a mixed bloodline. He was a pitch-black black luan, so strikingly ugly among his dazzlingly beautiful kin that he stood out, and he had never managed to take human form. The clan leader had never favored him.

A hundred years ago, the little crown prince went missing by accident and spent three years wandering outside the clan.

During those three years, the little prince, shunned by his kin, relied on a human child for company. When they parted, he secretly vowed that once he grew up and took human form, he would return to repay the kindness.

But by the time he had grown up, his beloved benefactor, whom he regarded as family, had already died beneath his Dao companion's sword along with everyone else at Swordheart Pavilion.

While paying his respects, the little prince met a friend of his benefactor from when he was alive.

This person was named Rong Qing. Mysterious and so beautiful that even a mask could not conceal his looks, he was also a sinister and cunning man.

He was exceptionally good at getting under people's skin, always boasting that he was his benefactor's best friend. He even claimed that his benefactor had given him the feather the little prince left behind all those years ago, and brazenly said he would look after his benefactor's little brother in his place.

To tease him, he even put on an act, climbing into his bed to seduce him. He was nothing but a shameless fox spirit with a belly full of schemes!

The little prince was furious. He was the person closest to his benefactor!

No matter how handsome the man's face might be beneath that mask, the little prince found him repulsive and utterly detestable!

But later, the little prince saw Rong Qing's face beneath the mask with his own eyes. His eyes reddened as he embraced the person he hated most, and the mouth that used to scold him as a fox spirit choked out hoarse words.

"Big Brother, I finally found you..."

The man who was usually best at provoking him only smiled helplessly, then gently patted the young man's back and comforted him in a soft voice.

"I never imagined that the little chick with singed feathers back then would grow up to become such a graceful little crown prince of the Phoenix Clan."

He had never known that, in the hundred years since his death, there was still someone in the world who thought of him.

That person loved him more than anyone else in the world.
