The Trials of Love
500,000 years ago, we already lost our chance to be together because of duty. "Misfortune shall fall on the ones who try to defy their fate." We are not destined to be together, that is what they told us. Even if we forgot our past, destiny still wanted us to meet again. This time, I am the princess of the Sky Clan, and he is the Demon Lord. Whose blood in the future will be on my hands. (Book cover done by me. Images from 616pic website)
Chapter 70: Palace Schemes (6)

"What happened, Imperial Consort Xian?"
