Caspian Thornwood, head of the Five Great Emperors of the Nine Heavens, was publicly divorced by Aurelia Yeabsley on grounds of the "Seven Offenses."
Female Emperor Aurelia Yeabsley had pursued Caspian Thornwood for tens of thousands of years. Yet barely a century after their marriage, she suffered betrayal and heart-extraction.
The person she treasured most not only loved another, but had long coveted the position of Heavenly Emperor.
Turns out, she was merely his stepping stone.
When Aurelia Yeabsley was struck by heavenly tribulation to the lower realm and failed her 99th tribulation—
Her cheap old man down there, wanting her to "kill husband to prove dao," secretly arranged for her a little fox as... ah no, as a disciple.
Aurelia Yeabsley stroked the little fox's ears and thought: "A day as master, a lifetime as father—little disciples ought to be properly spoiled."
Every day the little fox thought resentfully: Master's always coaxing and deceiving me. She wants to trick me into pledging myself to her body and heart, then kill husband to prove dao.
When Aurelia Yeabsley returned to the Nine Heavens and saw Caspian Thornwood with a woman at his side and a delicately carved jade-like child—
Aurelia Yeabsley sneered coldly: "While I spent years like days in Avici Hell, Your Majesty has thoroughly enjoyed family bliss."
Unexpectedly, he pushed that child toward Aurelia Yeabsley with reddened eyes and said softly: "Felix ... call her mother."
Aurelia Yeabsley: ???
Aurelia Yeabsley spoke shamelessly: "How do you prove this child is mine?"
He said in a low voice: "In the mortal realm... when you were my master... you... you asked for mine..."
Not long after, Caspian Thornwood pressed her onto the bed and raised his reddened eyes full of grievance.
"Kill or torture me as you please—but I want a proper status. Please... Master..."
