This is a story about a man and a woman who must keep their relationship secret from the whole immortal sect, and have a child together without anyone knowing.

Blurb:

Baiyun Yunsheng is the only daughter of the leader of an immortal sect. Her parents dote on her, she has a loving fiance, and she is a carefree young immortal, bright as a sunbeam.

She once believed her peaceful days would last forever.

Until a madwoman she'd never met abducted her and dragged her into a dark, hidden chamber.

At the far end of the chamber, the madwoman stared fixedly at the quiet man in the corner. Though all his immortal power had been restrained, the man still showed no trace of discomposure.

The madwoman gazed at him with blazing, deranged passion. "This is my gift to you. Sleep with her."

Baiyun Yunsheng's whole body stiffened. She looked up in panic and met a pair of beautiful, cool eyes.

From that moment on, she was cut off from the sunlight and the moon.

The chamber was dark, and time stood still. The innocent young immortal she'd once been shed every last trace of her naivety.

A year later, on a night of torrential rain, she finally escaped, battered and exhausted, after exhausting every last ounce of strength.

When she returned, her former sweetness was gone. Baiyun Yunsheng took over her father's position as head of the sect and became a ruthless, merciless leader.

After a full year in seclusion, Xiao Lingyi, the revered sage who had vanished from the immortal realm, finally appeared once more.

At the grand assembly of the immortal sects, tens of thousands bowed before the stern leader, the foremost immortal of them all.

But in full view of everyone, this sage, who had always kept his distance from women, held a soft-faced toddler securely in his arms. His clear voice rang across the heavens and earth. "This is my son."

The words struck, and the entire hall erupted.

The aloof, ascetic beauty of the immortal realm had somehow fathered a child in secret. Everyone in the sect was frantically guessing: Which immortal maiden had had the courage to pluck this flower of frost and snow, untouched by worldly dust?

Only Baiyun Yunsheng stood at the very back of the crowd, gazing across at Xiao Lingyi on the high platform.

His eyes remained as cool and distant as ever.

Her expression, too, betrayed not the slightest ripple.

No one knew that countless nights had passed with her and the lofty sage tangled together in passionate embraces on the same bed in that dark chamber, until dawn.

Baiyun Yunsheng had always believed she was Xiao Lingyi's shameful secret, a disgrace he was too embarrassed to mention.

But now, that man, who had always been so distant and aloof, had brought their shared secret into the light with his own hands.

This is the story of a kindhearted young immortal who undergoes a terrible ordeal and becomes a cold, merciless sect leader.

It's also the story of an ascetic champion of the immortal sects who, after being forced to lose his virtue, teeters on the edge of madness as he tries to find the mother of his child.
