Because her unlucky nature brings misfortune to everyone around her, Zhuohua has become a reluctant shut-in.
Just when she thought she would be alone for the rest of her life, she met a country bumpkin who had lost his wallet. He looked like he had walked straight out of some remote mountain wilderness, dressed in a long robe with his hair tied beneath a crown. He didn't even know what a phone was.
She helped him, and was astonished to discover that her bad luck had no effect on him.
Zhuohua really wanted to be friends with him. Maybe she came on too strong, because before long, their friendship had turned into a relationship.
Her boyfriend, Lu Yongsi, was wonderful in every way, except that he kept criticizing the cultivation novels she wrote.
Lu Yongsi: Your description of this cultivation method isn't accurate or realistic enough.
Lu Yongsi: If you cultivate as you describe, without laying a solid foundation, you'll run into trouble later.
Zhuohua: Really? I don't believe you. Prove it to me.
Lu Yongsi: ...
The next day, Lu Yongsi vanished without a trace.
On the third day, Zhuohua transmigrated.
A group of demons surrounded her, hailing her as the long-lost little princess of the demon race.
Princess Zhuohua quickly adapted to life in the cultivation world and went to the demon generals to gather material for her writing.
After hearing what she had learned from Lu Yongsi, the demon generals shook their heads.
The demon generals: That is obviously the orthodox path's cultivation method, stiff as a board! Little Princess, remember: stay away from the orthodox path. Especially that Sword Venerable from Yuanqing Palace. He's the demon race's sworn enemy!
Zhuohua frowned. Something about this wasn't adding up.
Later, Zhuohua finally met the legendary Sword Venerable... and, sure enough, he looked exactly like the ex-boyfriend who had deceived her feelings.
**
After sealing an ancient forbidden beast, Lu Yongsi was gravely wounded and fell into a small world.
There, he was saved by a demon woman, and the two became cultivation partners. What he hadn't expected was that Zhuohua was a princess of the demon race.
To keep his identity from being exposed, Lu Yongsi began appearing in public wearing a mask.
Rumors spread that the Sword Venerable had been disfigured in his battle with the forbidden beast.
When someone invited him to join a campaign against the demon race, Lu Yongsi refused and warned the demon settlements.
More rumors spread: the Sword Venerable hadn't just been disfigured, he'd also lost much of his cultivation.
When someone came to Yuanqing Palace to propose a marriage, Lu Yongsi said he already had a cultivation partner.
The rumors changed again: The Sword Venerable had been gravely wounded and disfigured, then forced by a mortal woman to become her husband. His virtue was no more.
Then the Demon Realm's princess announced she was seeking a husband. The Sword Venerable drew his sword, left the mountain, and stormed into demon territory, demanding that the princess acknowledge their bond as cultivation partners.
Only then did everyone learn that reality was even more outrageous than the rumors.
The Sword Venerable has been bewitched by the Demon Realm's princess and abandoned the light for darkness!
