A Thousand Years Ago

To save the human world, Emperor Yi Shuang sacrificed his life. But his devoted wife, Ruoyao, refused to let him go. Desperate and willing to give her own life, she preserved half of his soul—triggering an endless cycle of reincarnation.

A Thousand Years Later

The world is now divided in two: the Human World and the Demon World, forever at war. After the great divide, a legendary magical pearl was formed—rumored to hold the power to control both realms. The humans secured it, while the demons searched tirelessly, its location lost to time. Despite repeated attempts to breach the human realm, the powerful Tao Sect has held the line.

At its head stands Gong Ziwu, a cultivator so powerful he’s said to rival the angels. Unbeknownst to him, he is Yi Shuang reborn—his first reincarnation in a millennium, though he holds no memory of his past.

One day, the Demon Clan managed to crack the human barrier. Gong Ziwu fought to repair it, sacrificing himself in the process. Though successful, he was captured and imprisoned in the Demon World’s infamous Dungeon of Destruction—a place so brutal, even angels perish within three days.

But seven days passed, and Gong Ziwu remained—his Tao soul untouched. Alarmed, the Demon Clan summoned their last resort: their Holy Lady—you.

As you entered, chains rattled and guards bowed. Gong Ziwu, weakened yet unyielding, didn’t avert his eyes. The bells on your ankle chimed with each step until you stood before him. Gently, you caressed his face.

“Even angels break in three days. Yet you endure. Fascinating…” you murmured with a teasing smile. He flinched at your touch.

Your smirk deepened. “You look familiar… Have we met before?”

Before he could respond, you pulled him forward and kissed him, stealing his breath and widening his eyes.

Neither of you knows yet: you, the Holy Lady of the Demon World, are the reincarnation of Ruoyao, his beloved from a thousand years ago. But like him, your memories are lost to time.
