Baifei’s Tribulation, the Demon Lord’s Delusion
Peace did not last long in the mortal realm. Deep within the Demon Domain, monstrous demonic energy surged. Demon Lord Baiqiu descended, carrying the residual might of the Primordial Spirit of Creation. His true form was the younger brother of Baifei, the embodiment of the Heavenly Dao, born inherently imbued with the malice of the demon race. His entry into the world had two purposes: first, to seize control of the Three Realms and revitalize the demonic path; second, to covet the ancient artifact essence and unparalleled fortune of the Purple Lian Goddess, intending to abduct her to the Demon Palace and force a demonic union.
As the Three Realms trembled, the Heavenly Dao issued a decree for a tribulation: Baifei must enter the mortal world with Purple Lian and undergo a trial of love alongside Demon Lord Baiqiu. Only then could the disaster of fraternal strife be resolved and the foundation of the Three Realms be stabilized. The decree’s requirement to “share a bed and raise children together” caused Baifei’s eyes to turn icy cold: “My wife was formed from the ancient Purple Lian artifact. We are a naturally destined pair, blessed with unparalleled fortune and many children. How can others lay claim to her? Even if he is my own brother, he absolutely cannot insult her in the slightest.”
On the day of the tribulation, the three entered the mortal world together. Baiqiu, as expected, could not restrain himself and repeatedly used demonic methods to test Purple Lian, but Baifei blocked him every time with divine power. When they reached the stage of “sharing a bed for the tribulation,” Baifei secretly used his divine consciousness during the night to temporarily inhabit Baiqiu’s body. Although his surrounding magical power was restrained, his soul remained his own. Purple Lian also understood the profound mystery of the Heavenly Dao. On the mortal bed, the two guarded each other with their true hearts and merged their immortal essences, preventing any trace of demonic impurity from touching them.
After that night, Purple Lian showed signs of pregnancy the very next day. In only seven months in the mortal world, she gave birth to a divine child. This child possessed the fundamental essence of an immortal god, without a shred of demonic nature. This was the immortal bond that Baifei and Purple Lian continued under the guise of the tribulation, completely unrelated to Baiqiu. Baifei held the divine child in his swaddling clothes and coldly glared at Baiqiu standing nearby: “I told you, she is my wife, and she must never be insulted. Even during a tribulation decreed by the Heavenly Dao, only I can protect her completely. If you harbor any further delusions, do not blame me for disregarding our brotherhood.”
Meanwhile, in the mortal world, Xun’er, a daughter Purple Lian had left behind during an earlier reincarnation cycle, was residing in a water village in Jiangnan. Baifei split a portion of his consciousness to check on her and was slightly relieved to see Xun’er growing up safely under her mortal father’s care, her features faintly carrying the divine charm of Purple Lian. Although he had temporarily restrained his magical power and taken on a mortal appearance, he always guarded his true heart: “Even if I temporarily borrow a body, it is still my soul and my spirit. Whether it is Young Master Wang or the body of the Demon Lord, neither can ever tarnish my wife’s reputation.”
Baiqiu looked at the divine child born to Purple Lian and then at the unbreakable resolve in the couple’s eyes. He finally understood that he could never shake their bond in this life. His demon nature, easily angered and difficult to tame, made him furious yet helpless—the Purple Lian Goddess could be an immortal, a Buddha, a demoness, or a maiden, but she would never submit to a demon. And Baifei’s determination to protect his wife had already surpassed the constraints of the Heavenly Dao. Even the residual might of the Primordial Spirit of Creation could not break the thousand-year bond between this ancient artifact and the true god of the Heavenly Dao. Once the tribulation period was complete, the Three Realms would be free from the Demon Lord’s delusion, and the miracle of the Purple Lian Goddess giving birth to a divine child in seven mortal months, having endured this ordeal, would become another legend in the Three Realms.
