However, he has a secret: he used to be the most prolific demon king in history! In his plight of trying to end his suffering, he runs into the amnesiac Xu Rouguang. This man cannot remember anything else about his life... but that he loves Lai Mingjie. Who would have thought that this man is actually the demon king's wife... and executioner?! With the promises of freedom and a new life together, the two of them works on recovering whatever they can to rebuild the destiny that they have placed onto themselves—and what they have shattered all the same. How strong can they be in their crossed paths filled with pain, death, and separation… now that they are together again?

If those other old men thought that Tiangao was joking when he said he would ascend to the surface, they were out of their minds. Now that he was told that there was a member of the Imperial Xu that had ties with the Netherworld King, there was no way he wouldn't check out the kind of descendant it was. He wouldn't care if it was a trashy degenerate, but if it was something they could use in the future… hmph… heheh…
However, based on Gengpei's report, the King's concubine didn't have a high cultivation realm. At most, it was enough for him to summon materials from the spatial rings and bags. Such a very low realm for someone close to the Netherworld King.
It's just that… Tiangao knew his Imperial Xu; there was no way that they would have the face to say that they belonged to the Imperial Xu if they were not strong. The descendant must have been hiding his power.
