Adorable undercover sweetheart X aloof, proud Demon Venerable
Demon Venerable Jiang Hongji was a jade-faced asura who looked down upon the Three Realms and climbed to the top over mountains of corpses and seas of blood. No one in the world could match him.
Until he found a mortal girl by the edge of the Demon Abyss.
After she recovered, the girl timidly tugged at his sleeve. “I'll stay by your side and repay your kindness.”
Jiang Hongji thought nothing of it. He never expected her to mean it.
She brewed tea for him, wiped his sword, and accompanied him through the long, lonely nights of the demon realm.
He deliberately told her he was the Demon Venerable, hoping to frighten her away. Instead, she merely paused, then smiled with bright eyes.
“Then I have even more reason to stay with you.”
He thought that spending their whole lives together like this would be nice.
On their wedding day, he tenderly placed on her wrist a bone bracelet made from the demon clan's greatest treasure.

Until the day the seal at the border of the demon realm was forcibly opened by the immortal realm.
Several elders from the immortal sects sneaked in with a team of suicide soldiers and headed straight for the forbidden treasure vault.
That was a secret he had told only the woman who shared his bed.
It turned out that the little wife he had treasured so carefully was an undercover agent sent by the immortal realm.
He gave a soft snort and killed all the immortals with a wave of his hand. Then he turned around, bathed, changed into the moon-white clothes she loved most, and prepared to return to their bedroom.
She was so timid. The immortal realm must have tricked her into doing this.
Then he would simply pretend not to know for the rest of his life.

But when he pushed open the bedroom door, all he saw was her overturned dressing case and the chairs and tables strewn about.
The jewelry boxes had been emptied. The only thing left was the bone bracelet.
Jiang Hongji stared at the empty demon palace and finally laughed in anger.
She really was timid.
So scared that she hadn't even dared to take the token of their love that he had given her.
