As the enchantress of the Floating Moon Immortal Sect and the undisputed greatest beauty of the Three Realms, Ye Shu had countless admirers at her feet, each one a peerless prodigy.
Even the aloof Sword Venerable, said to have split open the Demon Abyss with a single stroke of his sword as a boy and to be the hardest man to win over, bowed his head to her. They even married.
Everyone thought she practiced the dual cultivation path, until she killed her husband with her own hands and ascended through the ruthless path.
Then a tribulation lightning bolt struck her back ten years into the past. She had lost all her cultivation, and a prodigy conquest System had appeared in her mind.
It was only a matter of walking the same path again. No big deal.
She worked hard at it, yet somehow always fell just short. Every target died on the eve of their wedding to her.
Then she discovered that the real culprit was the young man she had once saved by chance.
He caught her looking. When he turned his head, his expression was calm. Sword in hand, he approached at an unhurried pace.
Blood spattered across his face, making his gentle features look bewitchingly beautiful.
Yet the sword in his hand was clean and bright, reflecting the cold moonlight.
She recognized it: Snowglow, the natal sword of her former husband, whom she had once killed with her own hands.
In her panic, he handed her the sword. He lowered his head and smiled at her, tears welling in his eyes.
"A Shu, our spiritual bond hasn't been undone... If you want to attain the Dao, you have to kill me."

No one knew that the Sword Venerable who had split open the Demon Abyss with a single stroke as a boy was actually a demon.
He had followed Ye Shu ever since he was nothing but a wisp of energy, until she abandoned him.
When they met again, he was the cold and distant young Sword Venerable of the Taiqing Sword Sect.
Ye Shu was just as radiant as ever, but now there were many other people around her, all of them an eyesore.
He held himself back and tried not to disturb her. But she came to him again, only to plunge a sharp sword into his chest.
When he woke again, he pretended to be a frail, obedient boy and clung to Ye Shu's side. She still wouldn't spare him a glance.
He watched Ye Shu walk hand in hand with someone else from afar, then stood outside her room watching their shadows overlap on the windows.
The spiritual bond formed when he and Ye Shu had married still showed no sign of stirring in his heart.
So Ye Shu had never fallen for any of them.
He had been living on that thought.
Until one day, the silent spiritual bond suddenly carried Ye Shu's feelings to him.
Bittersweet. Sweet.
It drove him mad.
