I give you a bluebird, to carry my longing for you.
Married young, together till our hair turns white.

An Jin once escaped the claws of a wicked demon with her life.
But her immortal meridians were severed, leaving her no choice but to cultivate the demonic path and join the demon sect. A hundred years later, she became one of the three great sect leaders of the demon world.
One day, the Demon Venerable ordered An Jin to go undercover at an immortal mountain. Her mission was to eliminate Daoist Shandu, who had reached the summit of the Immortal Alliance in just a hundred years.
On the way to the mountain, the Demon Venerable shared a secret with An Jin and offered her some advice:
They say Daoist Shandu had a mortal wife who died a hundred years ago. Even now, he wears the sword tassel she gave him every day. If you can imitate her in some ways, you might earn his trust more quickly.
An Jin agreed.
She suddenly remembered that she, too, had once had a mortal husband.
They married young, then went together to the immortal mountain, supporting each other as they cultivated from Qi Refining to Foundation Establishment.
But after she "died" beneath the wicked demon's claws, they never saw each other again.
A hundred years had passed since they parted at the immortal mountain.
She wondered if he was doing all right.

There is a flower in this world called the Ninefold Nether Bloom.
It is drawn by blood and fed by tears.
By chance, An Jin wandered into Daoist Shandu's cave and saw it carpeted with Ninefold Nether Blooms, blazing like fire beneath a haze of red. Her name was carved all over the cave walls.
The culprit slowly emerged from the depths of the cave, smiling as he said:
"My dear, it's been a long time."
An Jin, only now catching on: Wait, how did my mortal husband become the most powerful person in the cultivation world?
