The moment the Immortal Venerable Wuhuan survived his tribulation, the world was shaken.
He brought back an ordinary mortal woman.
Her name was Zhou Qing, and her role was his cultivation partner.
It was only natural for Zhou Qing to agree to the Immortal Venerable's request to become cultivation partners.
He had power, wealth, strength, and good looks.
No matter how great the conspiracy, it would never involve an ordinary mortal like her. More importantly,
this was her only hope of staying alive.
The Immortal Venerable had no desires or demands. He and she were cultivation partners in name, but in truth, he was helping her.
Besides, the Immortal Venerable had warned her from the very beginning.
Zhou Qing had always thought her heart was as still as dead water.
Until...
The Immortal Venerable once again used his own body to refine the deadly poison within her.
The lofty Immortal Venerable was damp with sweat at his temples, his eyes like spring waters breaking through ice, yet his words were cold.
He said:
"Zhou Qing, if you fall for me, I will kill you as promised."
The Immortal Venerable Wuhuan had always been decisive in killing. Once, he showed compassion, and it brought him a fate of endless calamity.
A "villainous" heroine vs. a saintly hero
The heroine follows an upgrade path; see the blurb for the hero. Happy ending.
