The Fairy's Pact

Life as the Crown Prince is wonderful. Too bad the Crown Prince of Donghua is about to see it all come to an end!

One day, he woke up remembering everything from his previous life, and realized with horror that his dynasty would be destroyed by the mammoth cavalry in three years. All the princes, nobles, civil and military officials would die in humiliation, and even the common people would be slaughtered.

This merciless massacre finally came to an end at the foot of Mount Yuelu. The bandits who had been burning, killing, and looting chased the people halfway up the mountain. Their rampage disturbed a female Daoist at the Zixia Temple on the summit. Without hesitation, she killed the bandits and saved the people. Having heard of the suffering in the world, she took up her sword and descended the mountain to right wrongs and protect all living beings. When the bandit chief was roused and brought an army to surround her, the Crown Prince's ghost was truly worried for the Daoist!

Yet he watched with his own eyes as she summoned wind and rain and turned beans into soldiers, killing her enemies as if by magic.

Oh my heavens!

She was a living immortal!

When he woke up, Donghua felt an urgent need to find her. If he waited any longer, it would be too late!

So the Crown Prince wept and pleaded to leave the palace, to become her disciple and cultivate the Dao. He had to grab hold of this immortal's leg early and keep his family and people safe.

The Emperor and Empress doted on him without restraint. Unable to withstand his relentless pleading, they finally agreed.

Ning Ying had descended to the mortal realm to undergo a tribulation of slaughter. She could not achieve perfection without taking 108,000 lives.

But as an immortal, she could not simply slaughter people without reason.

So, in an age of peace, she enlightened a few little demons and incited wars between nations. Once the fighting began, she could intervene in the name of protecting the people and kill, kill, kill, kill, kill.

After all, mortals were no more than ants. One generation died, another was born. It was no big deal.

Until one day, a young man claiming to be the Crown Prince of Donghua came huffing and puffing up the mountain, then knelt at her feet and insisted on becoming her disciple.

Ning Ying calculated his fate and found that he was her love tribulation! What a delightful surprise, what an unexpected turn! Next time she descended to the mortal realm, she could undergo two tribulations at once and get twice the result for half the effort.

But... was this useless man, good at neither books nor martial arts, accustomed to having everything handed to him, and utterly incapable of anything because of his pampered upbringing, really worthy of being her love tribulation?

Aside from his good looks and likable personality, what could she possibly see in him? Even the little demons she had enlightened were more in tune with her.

Still, to successfully undergo her tribulation, she would have to pretend to fall in love with him.

And then kill him to prove her Dao.
