He was the only ancient god. After falling into the demonic path, he was slain by the united forces of the immortals.
Before he died, he poured all his divine power into the body of a mortal woman, helping her become a true god.
She had once been a lowly mortal, born in prison. Not long after her birth, her mother was beheaded.
The criminals in the prison taught her to become the most shameless and filthy person in the world.
To survive, she cheated, swindled, and stopped at nothing.
She was lowly and timid, smiling obsequiously at the powerful and kneeling to beg.
She was lower than dirt.
The Demon God went to the mortal realm to seek revenge on the High God Nitian, who was undergoing a tribulation. By chance, he saw her beaten half to death for stealing.
She clung to life, filthy from head to toe, clutching the hem of his robe and begging him to save her.
The Demon God was the son of the ancient Creator God, noble by birth, and he had always despised vulgar, shameless people. He looked down on her, yet in her desperate eyes he saw someone familiar from long ago.
He took her back to the demon realm, where she was free from the suffering of the mortal world.
The Demon God hated her, but couldn't bring himself to kill her.
She had been born in filth, humble as dust, and raised amid squalor. How could he expect her to possess a noble heart?
The demon realm gathered the turbid qi of heaven and earth, and should have been the place most conducive to evil thoughts.
Yet he taught her what it meant to uphold righteousness for all under heaven.
He gave her spiritual power and taught her to protect herself, letting her stand upright as a person.
But on the day she found her strength, he left her. Living forever became her greatest punishment.
The Fan Qilin is an ancient divine beast that opens its mouth once every five hundred years. If one can find the gate of life inside its mouth, one can travel through time.
At last, the day came when the Fan Qilin opened its mouth. She returned to twenty thousand years earlier, before he fell into the demonic path.
This time, she would tell him:
If you ever meet a girl covered in wounds, begging you to save her, you must turn away and keep walking. Don't look back.
Because she's vulgar and base, and thinks so little of herself that she'll bring you to ruin...
