The Beloved of All Regains Her Sight and Marries the Demon Lord

A seemingly aloof but actually rather ditzy beauty x a cool, arrogant Demon Venerable who thinks he's the other man in her relationship all day long

Two thousand years ago, Lin Mian became famous across the Six Realms for his beauty and was named an Immortal Lord for his military achievements. If Ji Heying hadn't later torn out twelve of his immortal bones one by one, leaving him blind and amnesiac, he wouldn't have ended up being bullied by everyone.

His disciple took advantage of his blindness and obliviousness to draw a roomful of erotic paintings starring him, using them to satisfy his own desires.

His immortal pet took advantage of his inability to see or sense anything, brazenly masturbating against his face while nestled in his arms.

His master took advantage of his indifference, joining forces with the other two to fill the house with taboo instruments meant to cut flesh from bone, using his immortal bones and fortune to nourish the person they loved.

Everyone said Lin Mian would eventually become the three men's plaything.

But then one day, his sight returned.

Everyone in the Celestial Realm was on edge. Ji Heying held great power, and Lin Mian knew full well that, injured as he was, there was no way he could escape the layers of restrictions imposed by Lord Fuguang.

So he wagered himself to Ying Zhao, using the Demon Venerable's power to escape the Immortal Palace and go to the mortal world.

The mortal world was new and fascinating, and the demon clan was full of beautiful women. Looking at his own sickly body in the mirror, Lin Mian thought that sooner or later, Ying Zhao would grow tired of him.

Then he could ask for a divorce and leave with his head held high.

But why did those bastards still keep coming after him and picking fights?

And when the day of parting finally came, why did his heart ache just as much as the Demon Venerable's, as he watched his eyes turn red?

Ying Zhao lost his parents when he was young. He had seen the world's warmth and coldness, and came to despise the lofty immortals of the Celestial Realm.

Until that year, when one glimpse of Lin Mian left him lovesick and deeply in love.

Even knowing that Lin Mian wasn't marrying him out of love, and that he might be taking over someone else's mess, he was still happy to send half the demon clan as a betrothal gift.

Even though... he knew that one day Lin Mian would leave him to seek the life he wanted.

Who could have expected that, after all the twists and turns, Lin Mian would seem to grow... closer and closer to him?

He would lazily lean in his arms to watch TV, tug on his sleeve to ask him to buy snacks, and even after they'd made love, turn over and curl up in his arms before falling asleep.

So dependent on him, and trusting him so completely.

It made him... crave even more.

He wanted to see Lin Mian pant, break down, sob, and show expressions he'd never seen before, making even more delightful sounds.

He also wanted to avenge the stolen bones and near-fatal injury, and seize the highest throne for him.

[Bonus scene]

In the midst of the heat and confusion, Ying Zhao buried his sweaty head against Lin Mian's soft chest, rubbing against him in a daze. "I don't want children."

Lin Mian, weak and resigned, slapped him. "Then get yourself castrated. Now. I'll do it myself."

Ying Zhao caught his hand and lowered his head for a deep breath. "No."

"Be good and let me kiss you. You smell so good."

Lin Mian: "…"

#Is there a time machine anywhere in the world?#

#I want to slap the me who thought I was so clever back then#

PS

The bottom is intersex, with two penises. A perfect match.

My take on a beautiful but tragic character. The romance isn't angsty, and their love stays true from beginning to end. No heartbreak or falling out of love, though there will probably be injuries. Don't read if that's not for you.

The story takes place in the twenty-first century, in modern times. Daily life is also modern, and most of the story is set in a contemporary world, but there are spirits, revenge against scumbags, and a crematorium-style redemption arc.

The previous story was locked due to metaphysical issues. The subject matter violated heavenly rules, and the author suffered severe mental and physical distress, so I don't dare write it anymore. This story doesn't have those themes, so it won't be locked. Please don't worry that I'll disappear.

The idiot author forgot that the submission deadline had changed. I'll post thirty thousand words on Tuesday next week and start the rankings right on time. The scheduled posts are all set.

Theme: Love can overcome anything.
