Shi Lanyu is the senior disciple of the Moonhidden Sect, the most prized student of Venerable Yaohua, and the most beautiful woman in the Three Realms. In the eyes of the world, she is gentle and beautiful as the bright moon at the edge of the clouds, a flawless goddess too sacred to defile.
Yet only Shi Lanyu knows that she is a demon who crawled out of hell. Her entire clan was slaughtered when she was young, and with the blood of demons and monsters running through her veins, she has long since ceased to be a good person. She has worked hard at cultivation and worn a mask of false virtue only to climb to the top of the cultivation world, take revenge with her own hands, and never repeat her mother's fate.
Until one day, she accidentally discovers that she has been living inside a storybook all along. The story is about the romance between her fiancé and her junior sister. Shi Lanyu herself is merely a wicked white-lotus rival, competing with her junior sister for the male lead, only to meet a tragic end: her spiritual meridians are crippled, and she is exiled to the Great Wilderness.
Shi Lanyu has no intention of becoming a sacrifice to their earth-shaking love story. If nothing she does makes a difference, then she is done pretending. At the Gathering of Ten Thousand Sects, she reveals her bloodline, leaves the Moonhidden Sect, and heads to the Demon Realm to join the story's most ambitious villain, the young Demon Lord He Xuanyi.
Who could have guessed that while she diligently governs the Demon Realm's thirteen provinces and devotes herself to its development, the Demon Lord only wants to fall in love with her?
