After I Was Reborn, My Ex-Husband Became My Master

[The next novel will be even more obedient: My Born Rebel Disciple. A rebellious disciple thinks she was the one who dragged her master down from his altar. Add it to your library!]

Lin Jingjing fell to demonic cultivation and died by her husband's sword.

She was once a princess of the demon race, and later cultivated into a demon immortal, becoming famous throughout the Three Realms. The man who fought beside her for the sake of the Three Realms was its strongest god, and also her husband. Perhaps they were only suited to be comrades-in-arms. Their marriage was merely the result of a political union between the gods and demons. They never exactly loathed one another, but their life together was painfully bland. She lived for long stretches in the Demon Realm, while he sat high upon his divine altar.

After she became a demon, even the bitter cold of the north could not quell her bloodlust. Though alive, she felt as if she were trapped in purgatory, and only wished for the gods to grant her death and bring everything to peace. After waiting in vain for a thousand years, she finally got her wish when her husband raised his sword to her heart.

"Do you know what you did wrong?"

"I did nothing wrong. I have no regrets, and I will not change."

She had only wanted to die, yet she was reborn at the moment she ascended to the Immortal Realm and became a demon immortal. In this life, she had only two wishes: first, not to become a demon; second, not to get involved with her ex-husband, the God Lord Chuanyuan. She took an easy job at the Marriage Pavilion, only to run into her ex-husband again when he came to undergo a trial of love within her jurisdiction.

This never happened in her previous life, did it? Her former husband, the icy God Lord, lost his memories during his trial and became the sect leader of the Ruthless Sect. He cultivated the Path of Ruthlessness and was just one step away from ascending to immortality. She took the form of a mortal cultivator, intending to secretly help him through his trial, but he chose her to be his personal disciple.

Her former husband, once as cold as ice, became her master and doted on her in every way. So her ex wasn't incapable of love after all. Was he just really into master-disciple romances?

When their feelings reached their peak, he whispered in her ear, "I want to hear you call me Xuanmo."

She said, "Fine... Fine, my foot!"

She did not know that, as a god, he knew she was the shackle the Heavenly Dao had placed on him, his weakness, and yet he accepted it willingly.

A rebellious disciple thinks she was the one who dragged her master down from his altar.

1.

He was the one who found her.

On a night of heavy snowfall, just before she breathed her last.

He made only one request:

From then on, she had to obey him.

She agreed only because she wanted to live.

Obedience? That had never been in her nature.

He said Kunlun did not accept female disciples.

She was fire itself, and being male or female was simply a choice.

So she became a boy.

2.

He said she was a flame that had accidentally fallen into the mortal world.

But in this life, she was only made of mortal flesh and blood, unable to bear its heat.

So at Kunlun, he patiently taught her how to keep her sharp edges in check.

The strange flame in her spiritual meridians could be hidden away.

But the fire in her heart refused to be caged.

3.

Once again, on a bitterly cold snowy night,

she woke nestled in his arms,

and for the first time saw him panic.

Now that she had fallen in love, she could no longer pretend to be a boy.

But Kunlun did not keep female disciples.

She thought he would drive her down the mountain.

Instead, he tied a ribbon around her hair to conceal her figure.

She said, "Master, I never knew you could lie, too."

He replied, "You are fire itself. It makes no difference whether you are male or female."

But why was he no longer willing to be close to her?

3.

In the end, no one can cage a person's heart.

Nor can anyone keep pretending to be obedient forever.

At last, on the day of his wedding, she revealed her true self:

the brazen, unruly female disciple who defied convention.

"If I kill her, will you come with me?"

"If you won't come with me, then I'll kill her. Will you come with me then?"

From that day on, Kunlun could no longer keep her.

He, too, trapped himself atop Kunlun Mountain, accepting punishment in her place.

4.

He said he could give her his life.

But why couldn't he give her his heart?

"I, Jiang Yan, will have you offer me your heart with your own hands!"

5.

But she did not know

that people respected and loved him only because he was the Lord of Kunlun.

He had never been the pure snow lotus blooming atop Kunlun Mountain.

He was a venomous serpent lurking in a shadowy cave.
