Jiang Hao arrives at a demonic sect as a sold disciple from an ordinary family, determined to cultivate peacefully and grow stronger without drawing attention. His ambitions shatter when a demoness emerges—a monumentally powerful cultivator who relishes his humiliation. Lacking any influential patron to intervene, he endures her cruelty and prays their encounters end. Then the sect's patriarch takes notice. As his new benefactor, Jiang Hao thrives, climbing to head disciple status and earning a summons to meet the patriarch in person. One look at her face confirms his worst nightmare: the beautiful patriarch before him is the very demoness who once tormented him relentlessly. Everything has shifted beneath his feet. His designated dual cultivation partner commands the entire sect—and he holds a secret that could topple it all. Does she know that spies fill every corner of her organization? Should he reveal the truth, or keep silent?
