When first-year high school student Yue Xi skipped class for the first time, she ran straight into a monster's den. Fortunately, she was rescued by the young cultivator Ye Ranti.
To stay alive, Yue Xi had no choice but to follow Ye Ranti around hunting monsters, picking up a few talismans for self-defense along the way.
Young people know nothing of love and hate. They only know that their hearts have never raced like this before. Unable to contain her feelings, Yue Xi gave Ye Ranti all her love.
But just as the refined, gentle gentlemen in novels always fall for wild and capricious demon cult enchantresses,
Ye Ranti fell in love with the princess of the demon realm, giving her his whole heart.
Yue Xi couldn't understand how someone could change their heart so quickly. But she kept waiting: waiting for them to part ways one day, waiting for Ye Ranti to look back. She was willing to settle for being his second choice.
Then she waited until she became a guest at their wedding banquet, where she witnessed Ye Ranti die on his wedding day.
She gathered his bones from the ruins and begged the gods and Buddhas filling the heavens, but none answered. Only the infamous Demon God of legend answered her plea and offered a helping hand.
After the miracle, the mischievous Demon God played a little prank on them.
The resurrected Ye Ranti fell madly in love with Yue Xi, just as she had once loved him.
But when Yue Xi opened her eyes, the first thing she said was:
"Hey, handsome. Who are you?"
