Xia Hanning spent hundreds of years as the Demon Lord, only to end up abandoned by everyone, with all the world seeking her death.
On the verge of death, the only thing that crossed her mind was the cold gaze of her nemesis, Gu Lanzhi.
When she opened her eyes again, she had returned to her youth.
Now she was merely an inconspicuous junior cultivator of the immortal path, while Gu Lanzhi was a heaven-blessed prodigy with everyone's hopes pinned on her.
They were nothing more than future schoolmates, an ordinary relationship.
In this life, Xia Hanning wanted only to avoid trouble, focus on making money, and become a nobody who could eat and wait for death. She would never become that ill-fated Demon Lord again, and she would stay far away from Gu Lanzhi!
But things did not go as planned. From the moment she entered the academy and became Gu Lanzhi's roommate, she could never shake off the refined young lady of the Gu family.
Gu Lanzhi would apply medicine when she was injured, clean up after her when she got into trouble, and cheer her up when she felt down... Could this really be the same cold, heartless nemesis from her previous life?
As the days went by, Xia Hanning grew more and more frustrated. Unable to hold back, she grabbed Gu Lanzhi by the collar and demanded, "What exactly do you want?"
Gu Lanzhi blinked. "I'm just pursuing the one I love."
At the sight of her innocent smile, Xia Hanning's face turned red with anger, and she stormed out, slamming the door behind her.
When the two of them found themselves in trouble yet again, Gu Lanzhi was under the influence of an aphrodisiac. Gritting her teeth, Xia Hanning finally gave up resisting, and the two tumbled together.
As the foremost young prodigy of the immortal sects, Gu Lanzhi had admirers across the Six Islands and Nine Provinces.
So when everyone learned she was in love with an unknown junior cultivator, the cultivation world nearly went into an uproar.
They all said Xia Hanning was a shameless seductress, and wondered what tricks she had used to bewitch Gu Lanzhi.
Xia Hanning felt wronged, because they had no idea that the refined young lady of the Gu family, who appeared aloof and noble as an immortal in the clouds and a bright moon in the night sky, would cling to her in private, hold her close, and do all sorts of outrageous things to her, bullying her until her eyes grew misty with tears.
Later, people in the cultivation world said that the venerable Qingyan Immortal, Gu Lanzhi, was noble and immaculate, with a character as pure as the moon. Her only flaw was her entanglement with the great fiend Xia Hanning, whom she spoiled rotten.
A tsundere demon who is tough on the outside and soft on the inside x a scheming immortal who seems proper on the surface
