After The Demon Lord And The Immortal Emperor Fell In Love

In the novel, the protagonist gong and the protagonist shou were mortal enemies who couldn't stand each other. During a certain battle, both suffered such severe injuries that they lost their memories. Afterward, they fell in love, becoming so deeply devoted to each other that they couldn't bear to be apart.

N years later, they regained their memories and discovered each other's true identities. Thus began a tumultuous relationship of love and hatred. Their battles shook heaven and earth, darkened the sun and moon, and brought disaster upon everyone around them.

However, none of this had anything to do with Ling Zeyu.

Because he was nothing more than a nameless, insignificant background character.

At first, he thought he'd been given a farming storyline.

Every day, he farmed, hunted, gathered medicinal herbs, and raised a little cat. He even had a young private school teacher as his partner. Together, they lived a leisurely, carefree, happy life in a mountain village.

One day, a magnificent carriage entered their secluded village. A man dressed in luxurious brocade stepped out, suddenly dropped to his knees before Ling Zeyu's partner, and shouted, "General!" Ling Zeyu was stunned.

Afterward, he packed up his belongings and accompanied his man to the capital, where they moved into a luxurious mansion and began a lively life filled with household intrigue.

He thought he'd been given a storyline about political power struggles and household scheming. But suddenly, demons descended from the heavens, wreaking havoc upon the land, plunging countless lives into misery and leaving the common people suffering. His wise and mighty partner swung his sword, sweeping through thousands of enemies in one stroke. Ling Zeyu stared in utter disbelief.

When a group of immortal cultivators descended to the mortal realm riding spirit beasts and respectfully addressed his partner as "Grandmaster Uncle," Ling Zeyu was completely bewildered.

So it turned out he'd been given an immortal cultivation storyline??

No!

Wrong! The immortal cultivation storyline had nothing to do with him, because his partner told him—

"Thank you, A Yu, for helping me overcome my love tribulation. I am about to ascend to the Immortal Realm. I shall give you this magical artifact, which will help you return to your original world."

Ling Zeyu: 😳🙉😱

After helplessly watching that "heartless bastard" overcome his tribulation and ascend to the Immortal Realm, Ling Zeyu furiously smashed the magical artifact and turned to the dark side on the spot.

N years later, Ling Zeyu led an army of a million demons in an assault on the Immortal Realm, determined to make that heartless bastard pay his debt of love.

When the demon army broke through the gates of the Immortal Realm and Ling Zeyu finally confronted his "Immortal Emperor ex-husband," he discovered the truth—

The melodramatic story had only just begun. He was none other than the protagonist shou, destined to fall in love and clash with his mortal enemy, the protagonist gong!

*

Having successfully overcome his love tribulation, the Immortal Emperor returned to the Immortal Realm, where ten thousand immortals bowed in reverence.

After so many years apart, the immortals noticed that the Immortal Emperor seemed to have acquired a faint trace of melancholy.

For instance, he would often stand alone before the Heavenly Chasm Wall separating the Immortal and Demon Realms, sighing softly for no apparent reason.

Until one day, the Heavenly Chasm Wall, which had stood for hundreds of millions of years, shattered. A million demon soldiers surged through the breach, led by a breathtakingly beautiful, white-haired Demon Lord who charged forward with overwhelming might. Suddenly, the clouds of sorrow that had gathered between the Immortal Emperor's brows dispersed.

*

The original novel's plot began asserting itself. The Demon Lord and the Immortal Emperor were destined to love and fight each other, playing out a melodramatic storyline.

Ling Zeyu scoffed at the idea.

As far as he was concerned, there would be no melodrama, only sweet, indulgent romance.

Even the lofty Immortal Emperor would have to love him fiercely!

As for fighting—

Even fighting between the sheets counts as fighting~✧(◍˃̶ᗜ˂̶◍)✩

Demon Lord: "I'm not fighting anymore, I'm not fighting anymore. It's too exhausting. This Lord is going to sleep."

The Immortal Emperor silently pulled the quilt over his little husband's belly.
