Demons are immortal and indestructible, born as the embodiment of evil.
Pride, envy, wrath, greed, destruction, killing.
It is a curse etched into their very bones.
What is love?
The demons didn't understand.
Shi Ruyue is the same.
she……
Yes, it's her.
Demons gain intelligence at five hundred years old and take human form at five thousand years old.
Shi Ruyue obtained a stunningly beautiful appearance.
It transcends all human definitions of beauty.
No amount of descriptions like "beauty that could sink fish and bring down geese" or "beauty that could topple kingdoms" can capture even a fraction of her beauty.
It's to the point that just one glance at them would make one feel ashamed of oneself.
According to common sense, this face should be a fatal sin for a newly transformed demon.
But unfortunately, Shi Ruyue is a madwoman.
That was tens of thousands of years ago, long before the war between gods and demons.
All the evil of the demon race was manifested to the extreme in Shi Ruyue.
Pride, envy, wrath, greed, destruction, killing.
"Go to hell! Go to hell! Go to hell, go to hell, go to hell, go to hell, go to hell!"
"Hahahaha! Die, die!"
Her beautiful eyes and brows were forever tinged with overwhelming madness.
Her clothes were always soaked in blood.
She was constantly excited by the killing.
Like a rabid, hungry dog, she attacked any creature that entered her field of vision indiscriminately.
She wasn't strong enough at first, but demons are an immortal race, so even if she was torn to pieces or hacked into a pulp a thousand or ten thousand times, she would still rush forward laughing the next time.
The Demon Lord found it amusing, so he sent people to capture her, intending to train a mad dog into an obedient watchdog that would bite wherever it was told.
If the dog disobeyed, he would torture her in every possible way, using the cruelest methods, both physically and mentally.
But Shi Ruyue is really too crazy.
The time she was forced to follow the Demon Lord did not break her spirit; instead, it nurtured her ambition.
Demon Lord, hello.
She also wanted to be the Demon Lord.
So she feigned submission, lying in wait, lying in wait...
When the Demon Lord lowered his guard, she seized the opportunity and bit into his throat.
But the Demon Lord, as the earliest ancestral demon, has lived for tens of thousands of years. How could a little demon of a few thousand years possibly shake him?
Although it was by a hair's breadth, a loss is a loss.
The consequence of failure is that she must bear the wrath of the Demon Lord himself.
Shi Ruyue was banished to the Nine Netherworld Purgatory.
That is the source of the fire from the Earth's core, the source of the Nine Netherworlds.
There is a saying: "The fire of the mortal world burns away the illusory flesh, and the netherworld washes away the filth of the soul."
Therefore, the Nine Netherworld Purgatory also has another name: the Realm of Judgment.
It is said that there was once a traitor of the demon race, with tens of thousands of years of cultivation, who was thrown into the Nine Netherworld by the Demon Lord. Only two or three days later, when he was brought out, his personality had been destroyed. His eyes were empty, he could not think, could not cry or laugh, had no emotions, and had lost his reaction to external stimuli, like a newly forged demon puppet.
While in the Nine Netherworld Purgatory, Shi Ruyue felt as if her soul was about to be burned to ashes.
But she just smiled.
The more pain he was in, the more maniacally he laughed.
The more maniacally you laugh, the more pain you experience.
Thousands of years have passed, and even the demons themselves, including the Demon Lord, have begun to forget Shi Ruyue's existence—
The mirror of judgment has collapsed.
Shi Ruyue crawled out of purgatory, her body surrounded by eerie blue flames.
That was... completely swallowed up...
Netherworld Fire.
She's crazy.
Without a doubt.
The Demon Lord couldn't help but admire her, but at the same time, he couldn't help but fear her.
Just as he was in a dilemma, he was surprised to find that Shi Ruyue no longer resembled the person she used to be.
She said she had lost her sense of pain and even her sense of touch had become very dull.
As for what she experienced in the Nine Netherworlds, and how she gradually devoured the Earth Core Fire and made it her own, no one has ever asked.
She didn't mention it either.
After that, she was always listless, as if she had lost interest in everything in the world.
The Demon Lord was overjoyed and forgave the past, and with a wave of his hand, he took Ruyue as his protector.
Even if she only works sporadically and sometimes skips work to go to sleep, he doesn't mind. He just urges her a few more times and gives her more time, and she always gets things done beautifully.
Later, a war broke out between humans and demons.
Shi Ruyue suddenly revealed an ability called "A Heart That Lasts a Thousand Years".
In layman's terms, she can instantly replicate all the martial arts moves she sees.
Sword techniques, saber techniques, spells, talisman drawing, formation...
And so on and so forth.
It's just that she hadn't been exposed to these things in the Demon Realm before, so the ability "Eternal Heart" never had a chance to be displayed.
As a result, Shi Ruyue was given even more important responsibilities.
In this war, the demons advanced triumphantly.
It wasn't until the gods joined in that it evolved into a war between gods and demons.
Afterwards, the demons were defeated and sealed in the Demon Cave.
Tens of thousands of years later, the Demon Lord's chief protector returned to the human realm in the body of the divine physician Lan Xiao.
They then selected three exceptionally talented individuals to cultivate back in the Demon Cave, so that the Second Protector Mengji, the Third Protector Shiruyue, and the Fourth Protector Yu Meiren could possess their bodies.
Mengji chose the strongest of the group to cultivate.
The remaining two bodies are both female cultivators.
A withered, young body, clearly underdeveloped.
She has a good figure and a beautiful face; she's clearly a natural beauty.
Yu Meiren's appearance when she transformed into human form was not very beautiful, which was her biggest worry. So she immediately took the initiative and settled on that beautiful body.
But Shi Ruyue didn't care.
Shi Ruyue's new body was still growing. After being cared for by her for a while, she grew taller rapidly, eventually reaching about 1.78 meters.
She's grown tall, but not big.
In addition, she was always unkempt, so she was often mistaken for a man.
Her former appearance had caused her too much trouble.
So now, she doesn't explain at all.
After all, it's much easier for a man to get things done than for a woman.
Over time, the minor demon cultivators who later became the Demon Lord's lackeys all assumed that the Demon Lord's four protectors were three men and one woman.
During the period when Shi Ruyue pretended to be tamed and used every means to gain the Demon Lord's trust, she made great achievements in battle, creating many glorious feats in both the Demon Realm and the Human Realm.
Everyone knows that among the Demon Lord's protectors is a particularly ruthless and madwoman, a god of war among the demons.
When Shi Ruyue became a "man," her title and prestige were naturally taken over by Yu Meiren.
She herself was quite happy to have some free time.
She drifted through life in a daze, never imagining that one day she would make friends.
She asked, "Would you like to see my world?"
Shi Ruyue abandoned her cultivation at the peak of the Tribulation Transcending Realm and was born into the 21st century as an ordinary human being.
Facing this new world, she seemed to have rediscovered a bit of enthusiasm...
