Gui Zhi, the Demon Venerable said to have blood on both hands, was sinister and insane.
After failing to break through a bottleneck during secluded cultivation, he suffered damage to his sea of consciousness and, unfortunately, lost his memory.
His trusted subordinate repeatedly warned him: "Your Majesty, you're injured. You must keep a low profile for now. Be careful the Immortal Realm's enemies hear about this and come looking for you."
Gui Zhi nodded to show he understood, then turned around and hauled out an immortal as aloof as a lonely crane on a cold mountain. "I've kidnapped the beauty I love. We'll be married on an auspicious day."
His trusted subordinate stared wide-eyed at the immortal's face and let out a shrill scream: "Stop, Your Majesty! That's Jiang Linyue, the head of the Immortal Sect!"

Demons are called demons because they naturally act wickedly and without restraint.
Gui Zhi had forgotten how to command the spiritual energy in his Violet Palace, but he still had to maintain the bearing of a Demon Venerable. Every so often, he would menacingly threaten his kidnapped new demon consort: "You can't escape my grasp."
The immortal: "Mm."
Gui Zhi continued to throw his weight around. "There is a gulf between immortals and demons. I know you're unwilling, but from now on, you can only belong to me."
The immortal: "...Yes."
Gui Zhi said darkly, "I had a golden cage built for you. Until you fully understand your place, you'll stay inside it and behave."
The immortal: "As you wish."
Gui Zhi was satisfied.
Excellent. The evil Demon Venerable has humiliated the lofty immortal again today.

Jiang Linyue was a prodigy of the Immortal Sect, passionless and desireless, the only cultivator in history to reach the Mahayana stage, and the person in the Three Realms with the best chance of attaining the Dao and ascending.
He had guarded Mount Tianji for years and rarely appeared in public.
No one knew that he and the Demon Venerable Gui Zhi had been married for a hundred and twenty years.
Though they were Dao companions, they were both busy with their own affairs and rarely saw each other.
Until Gui Zhi lost his memory.
His Dao companion, who had always been neither warm nor cold toward him, suddenly changed completely. He kidnapped Jiang Linyue back to his lair and pressured him with threats and inducements to marry him.
And it had to be announced to all three realms, in the grandest, most magnificent ceremony possible.
The matter was momentous. It could shake the entire Three Realms, but Jiang Linyue didn't hesitate. "All right."
At the time, Gui Zhi had lost his memories and probably hadn't realized one thing.
But Jiang Linyue saw it the moment he laid eyes on him: the Demon Venerable Gui Zhi, the last phoenix in the world, already carried three eggs in his still-flat belly.
They were the fruit of their shared bloodline.
Before losing his memory: an alluring, overbearing demon uke. After losing it: the same, but a little silly × a cold and abstinent (?) immortal seme who indulges him without limits

Sir, do you have a fixed update time? I open JJ several times a day to see if this book has been updated 😭
What is this? I'm so curious.
It's hard not to suspect that these two people got married first and fell in love later, and they had a secret love in both directions.
Oh my god, what happened to them in the past? It makes me scratch my head.
When will the Demon Lord be more sincere to the Immortal Lord?
Teacher, it's been almost four months. Will you come back? [Lie flat]
But I only lack your lifelong understanding
It's been a month. When will the teacher come back?
[Gotou] You actually guessed it for me. This book is so good, why are there so few people? Love it, love it, come on [make me healthy]
Madam, haven't you updated yet?
