I Stabbed My Boyfriend to Save My White Moonlight

My master, Immortal Venerable Linhua, was a great hero without equal. I served under him and admired him for hundreds of years.

During the war between gods and demons, Master sacrificed himself alongside the Demon Lord to save all living beings. His body was scattered across the mountains and rivers of the mortal realm, protecting peace across the Eight Wastes.

Immortal Venerable Linhua must not perish. I have to bring him back to life.

I spent hundreds of years searching for Master's remains, but could never find his heart-protecting scale.

Only then did I learn that the Demon Lord from the great war had taken it.

The heart-protecting scale caused the Demon Lord to fall into the mortal realm and reincarnate there for hundreds of years. Soon, he would return to the world.

When that happened, the Three Realms would surely descend into chaos.

I was consumed by rage.

Master had been torn apart. How could this usurping demon be allowed to live?

I drew close to him, cared for him, and cherished him, all so that when he fell for me, I could cut open his heart and take out Master's heart-protecting scale.

Demons were born cold and merciless, cruel and ruthless. My advances made him wary.

He tested me, tormented me, killed me, deceived me, and abused me.

But it didn't matter. I could endure anything for Master's heart-protecting scale.

I would keep that pristine white moon hanging high among the branches forever.

At last, he fell hopelessly in love with me.

On our wedding day, without hesitation, I plunged a sharp blade into the heart that was racing with nerves as he took me as his bride.

“Why?”

He demanded an answer, tears falling onto the back of my hand, burning like molten iron.

I said nothing. Without expression, I cut open his cooling heart and took out the heart-protecting scale I had yearned for day and night.

Master...

I silently vowed,

I will bring you back to life, protect you, and admire you.

-

A hundred years passed in the blink of an eye, and the Demon Lord I killed came back for me.

He wanted revenge, but he wouldn't kill me.

I asked, “What exactly do you want?”

He answered, “I want you to love me.”
