Chapter 1
To see Phil one last time, I gave up my Demon Spirit.
After enduring countless hardships, I finally met him.
The first thing he said to me was, "Get out!"
Not long after, I transcended the mortal world and became an immortal.
But he, unable to love me, was trapped in place.
I advised him to let go of his obsession.
[1]
I am a fox demoness who has undergone a thousand years of spiritual training.
I searched for Phil for five hundred years, but he avoided me.
However, my days are numbered. To see Phil one last time, I crossed Flame Mountain and Ice Blade, and finally found the god who roamed outside the Three Realms: Nolan!
"Why can't I find Phil?" Nolan, dressed in a long purple robe, stood atop the icy peak, smiling slightly as if he had anticipated my arrival.
"He has the Lapis Mirror, which can hide his presence within the Three Realms."
"Can you help me?"
"Hahaha, how amusing. Since you came to me, you must have known I have the power to help you. I am not bound by the Three Realms; what can a mere Lapis Mirror do to me?" He floated down from the icy peak, his purple robe fluttering. He took out a black fan and lifted my chin.
"But what can you offer me?"
Despite my thousand years of spiritual training and unparalleled beauty, I was battered and exhausted from crossing Flame Mountain and Ice Blade. At this moment, I was kneeling at his feet, probably worthless in his eyes.
"You can take my life!" A few days ago, I was attacked by a spider spirit. I managed to defeat her with my cultivation, but with her last breath, she released her venom.
I didn't have long to live, maybe another hundred years. I just wanted to see Phil one last time. There were too many misunderstandings between us. I just wanted to see him again and explain the truth from back then.
Nolan laughed again, "What use is your life to me?" He leaned down to look at me. "I'm only interested in one thing."
"What? As long as I can do it, I will get it for you!"
"Love! The love that exists in all realms. I want to know if human love can pass my test. If you love Phil, then give me your Demon Spirit."
"Alright, I agree!"
"Hahaha, I don't need your Demon Spirit. Let's make a bet!"
His eyes were full of mockery. "I will let you find your beloved, but once you find him, you cannot explain the misunderstandings from back then unless he asks you. You cannot tell him you are poisoned, and you cannot tell him you are making a bet with me. If he sees your love for him, forgives you, and falls in love with you again within a year, I will return your Demon Spirit and remove the spider venom. Do you agree?"
This god outside the Three Realms wanted to amuse himself with me, to play games with the mortal world through me. The conditions he offered were so tempting, how could I refuse?
"I agree! What if he doesn't love me?"
"Then you will be shattered into pieces, your form and spirit destroyed, disappearing forever."
I spat out my Demon Spirit. "Deal!"
He gave me his fan, the Abyssal Bone Fan, which could protect me, temporarily delay the poison, and provide me with a continuous supply of spirit power since I no longer had my Demon Spirit.

I was too happy too soon, thinking that meeting Nolan was my opportunity. Not only did he help me see Phil again, but he also gave me hope to continue living. Little did I know that seeing Phil again was the beginning of my nightmare...
The next time I saw Phil was at the Mountain of Illusions.
I attended a grand assembly in the Demon Realm, mingling among the bustling crowd of demons.
He sat on the Demon King's throne, looking majestic, with a look of pride on his face.
Gone was the spirited youth from back then. Five hundred years had passed, and he had become the king of the Demon Realm.
He was a wolf demon and possessed the mystical Lapis Mirror. Everything seemed to fall into place; it was his destiny.
Finally, you and I met here.
I recalled our first meeting five hundred years ago, in the eye of a formation. He was trapped by a Taoist priest's formation, unable to move. He couldn't match my five hundred years of cultivation.
In the formation, he was in excruciating pain. When he saw me passing by, hope flashed in his eyes. "Fox Immortal sister! Save me."
I looked at this wolf demon with only three hundred years of cultivation with amusement. "Oh, save you? What benefit can I get?"
"My father is the Demon King. Our home has many rare treasures."
I teased, "You look good. How about I take you as my husband?"
He was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. "Alright, I agree. If you save me, I will do as you say."
A small formation was naturally no challenge for me. I didn't intend to marry a wolf demon; I was just teasing him.
But unexpectedly, the formation was strong on the inside and weak on the outside. To save him, I expended a lot of energy and even lost a tail.
From then on, my nine tails became eight. I was injured and needed someone by my side. He took my joke seriously and stayed by my side, tending to my wounds and finding food for me, being caring and thoughtful, like a devoted husband.
I didn't think much of it. But when I recovered, I couldn't get rid of him.
He held my hand. "Why do you want to drive me away, my lady? Is it because I'm not doing well enough?"
