After Lu Laisui was beaten by thugs and thrown off a cliff, everything in her life started going her way.
She was exceptionally gifted. After falling off the cliff, she grasped the path of demonic cultivation and left her peers far behind.
She was irresistibly charming, with all kinds of handsome young men orbiting her, including the youngest demon general under the Demon Lord.
She was incredibly lucky. Mysterious benefactors kept showing up to give her rare treasures and help her cultivate.
How could anyone have such an easy life?!
Then one day, Lu Laisui realized that the mysterious person who had been secretly following her was gone.
Lu Laisui: ?
Was this supposed to be a trial? Because it was a pretty tough one.
Lu Laisui accepted the challenge. He ran, she chased, and he couldn't escape.
Trapped, the beautiful mysterious man fell silent for a moment, then closed his eyes and began to recount his tragic tale: a ruthless, violent Demon Lord for a father, a mother whose body had never been found, and a life shattered into pieces.
This story sounds so familiar.
Anyway, Lu Laisui got it. Next, it was time for her to save the beauty.
Her sharp sword left its sheath; her longbow drew down the sun.
She planted her foot on the Demon Lord's throne and handed the dying Demon Lord over to the broken man.
The mysterious man said nothing, but she knew the next part should go, "I have no way to repay you, so I'll give myself to you."
The day she ascended the throne, heaven and earth celebrated.
Lu Laisui went from an ordinary person to a ruler in just eight years.

In his previous life, Fu Li had barely taken the throne when a sword pierced his heart.
The woman who killed him stood atop his throne and didn't even spare his corpse a second glance.
Reborn with the prophetic treasure known as the Wheel of Fate in his hands, Fu Li decided to take revenge.
He found Lu Laisui, stabbed her through the heart, and threw her body into the Endless Abyss, making sure to finish the job.
Several days later, the Wheel of Fate updated its prophecy.
This time, she did look at his corpse. Smiling, she said, "So it was you. Thanks for sending me all those fortuitous encounters."
Fu Li: ?
He stole her opportunities and kept trying to assassinate her, only to discover that all his attempts to kill her could do was make her stronger.
Fu Li: ...
He decided to change tactics and use his good looks.
He spent a fortune bribing a group of people and even encouraged demon generals to surround her, hoping to make her lose herself in love.
But Lu Laisui had met countless admirers without letting a single one get close. Her heart was set on cultivation.
The prophecy updated, and this time it was even more outrageous.
A flock of beauties surrounded her, watching his corpse, while even his closest demon general helped her wipe her blade!
Fu Li: ??
He took a long, hard look at himself and decided to corrupt her.
Didn't she love cultivation? Then he would weaken her will with shortcuts and tempt her down the wrong path with rare treasures.
This time, the Wheel of Fate showed a marked deviation.
Fu Li was overjoyed and pressed on.
When the prophecy updated, he wasn't a corpse this time, but...
How had he become her consort???!
Fu Li: ???
Is this right?! How can this be right?!!
*
It is right.
Enough talk. Next, he needs to deal with all the awful romantic prospects he sent her way.
