Shen Ziqing was a short-lived college student. After transmigrating, he devoted himself to cultivating immortality to extend his lifespan. Unfortunately, while exploring a secret realm, he fell into a small pocket dimension where the only other person was the Demon Lord, Pei Changying.

The pocket dimension opened once every twenty years. Shen Ziqing's fall into it cost Pei Changying his chance to leave, and the next opening was still twenty years away.

With no other choice, Shen Ziqing adopted the alias Su Yu and nervously stayed by Pei Changying's side, trying to gauge the mercurial Demon Lord's mood and fearing that one careless mistake would get him killed.

But to his surprise, the Demon Lord seemed to become addicted to their game of playing house as mortals, and even demanded that Shen Ziqing become his cultivation partner after they left the pocket dimension.

To save his life, Shen Ziqing agreed.

But on the very first day after they got out, he ran away.

Later, he heard that the Demon Lord, the Yin Extremity Ancestor, whose name resounded across the Eight Provinces, was searching for him like a madman.

Shen Ziqing knew he had deceived Pei Changying and used a fake name. After being played for a fool like that, the mercurial Demon Lord would surely find him and tear him limb from limb.

For three hundred years, Shen Ziqing had nowhere he could safely return to, neither home nor sect, and evaded pursuit with great difficulty.

With no other choice, he lured Pei Changying to an uninhabited borderland in the far south. There, he staged his own death, self-destructing his Nascent Soul under Pei Changying's gaze and vanishing from the world completely.

At last, he could live in peace.

As he finally escaped the uninhabited borderland, the last thing he saw was Pei Changying's eyes, red as if they were bleeding.

Several hundred years later, he returned to his sect and became its powerful Grand Elder.

He disguised himself, confident that as a Grand Elder with perfect cultivation, no one could see through him.

But Pei Changying still tracked him down by scent.

This time, Pei Changying stared at him with a menacing gaze. His low, hoarse voice was tinged with madness.
