The young emperor of Yu Kingdom, Yu Zhi, harbors a secret—he is not human.
He carries the bloodline of ancient demon clans. Yet with the world’s spiritual energy in decline, this heritage proves not only useless but burdens him with two troublesome afflictions.
First: Infertility.
Second: Periodic heat cycles.
The enemy nation has long coveted Yu Kingdom, plotting its conquest. When their new emperor ascended the throne, Yu Zhi disguised himself as an envoy to offer congratulations.
But on the very night the new emperor hosted a banquet for all nations’ envoys, Yu Zhi’s heat struck. In his hazy state, he stumbled into a man’s arms.
A night of reckless passion.
That man was a complete scoundrel!
Even Yu Zhi, in the midst of his heat, found it unbearable.
Yu Zhi vowed bitterly: I shall punish this madman severely!
When Yu Zhi sobered up, he stared in shock at the familiar, handsome face beside him.
Wasn’t this the newly crowned emperor of the enemy nation?
Yu Zhi fled in the dead of night.
Shortly after returning to Yu Kingdom, Yu Zhi began experiencing loss of appetite, dizziness, and vomiting. Trembling with fear, he summoned the imperial physician for diagnosis.
The physician’s voice boomed like a bell: “Your Majesty, you are with child!”
Yu Zhi’s vision darkened. Wasn’t it difficult for him to conceive? How could he have succeeded on the very first try?!

Luo Tingshi, the new emperor of Shengguo, had been in a foul mood lately.
As the ruler of a nation, he couldn’t find a single person.
That night, drugged and burning with desire with nowhere to vent it, a young beauty happened to throw himself into his arms.
With a slender waist and long legs, he was passionate and eager, his moans pleasing to the ear, compelling him to hold him down and take him again and again.
He thought, perhaps granting him the title of Imperial Consort would be fitting.
Yet after their night together, the beauty vanished.
Luo Tingshi flew into a rage.
Learning he was an envoy from Yu Kingdom, he immediately wrote to Yu’s emperor, offering three cities as dowry to wed the beauty.
To his shock, the Yu Emperor replied with a single word: “Get lost!”
Luo Tingshi laughed coldly. Excellent. He had long desired to invade Yu. Now he had his justification.
Once Yu was annexed into Sheng’s territory, as the ruler of all under heaven, the beauty would naturally be his.
With a single command, his armies pressed against the border.
As war loomed, the Emperor of Yu sent a letter seeking peace negotiations.
Luo Tingshi tore the peace proposal before the envoys, laughing wildly: “Tell your emperor to kneel and welcome the mighty armies of Sheng!”
Unexpectedly, within the enemy camp, he encountered the beloved beauty he had longed for day and night.
Luo Tingshi stared at the beauty clad in imperial robes, his gaze lingering on his slightly rounded belly, utterly dumbfounded.
The beauty’s expression turned icy: “You bastard! Do you want to kill both me and your bastard child?”
Luo Tingshi immediately roared, “Withdraw the troops!”
The general looked puzzled, “Your Majesty, are we not fighting?”
Luo Tingshi snapped angrily, “Fight? What’s the point! Keep fighting and we’ll lose our wives and children!”

Later, Luo Tingshi knelt by Yu Zhi’s bedside: “I was wrong. I should be the one kneeling to welcome you.”
Yu Zhi shot him a cold glance, turned without a backward look, and walked away.
Luo Tingshi sighed deeply and hurried after him.
The road to winning back his wife was long indeed!
