[This is a teaser for a future story]
Jin He is a little koi fish living by the Yu River, free and carefree. Her one lifelong obsession is finding her parents.
So when she meets the immortal Yu Miao, whose aura feels familiar, she shamelessly clings to him.
She throws tantrums, rolls around, and tries every trick in the book...
Even after she falls to demonic ways and becomes a demoness despised by all, she still keeps entangling herself with him, unwilling to let things end cleanly.
Her sincerity is as clear as the sun and moon. It is just that this immortal is an absolute piece of work! Not only does he abandon her and go home during a crucial trial, he turns around and leads an army to hunt her down.
Jin He is heartbroken. From then on, the koi's good fortune will bless only her people and herself.
She wants equality for all living beings across the Three Realms and Six Domains. She wants the light of the sun, moon, and stars to shine into the deepest darkness of the Mist Abyss. She wants her people to live in peace, beyond anyone's reach to bully.
And she wants to forget that love and give up that divine power...
But Si Kong Miao has a way of making her remember.
[Reader's Guide]
A truly spirited koi fish (later a gorgeous, powerful, and badass demon lord) x a cold and aloof immortal (the number one untouchable beauty in the Immortal Realm, cold on the outside and even colder within)
One-on-one romance throughout, happy ending, powerful leads later on, no annoying female rival, no tragic second male lead (though there are plenty of goofy guys)
A groveling pursuit, corruption and demonic transformation, and joining forces to fight off their enemies. Half sweet, half angsty (please check the tags if these aren't for you)
