After reincarnating into the body of a young man newly initiated into the demon path, he vows to win A Li back, but finds she’s now a demon-hunting sword cultivator who raises her sword to slay him as a "wicked demon". He hides his Demon Lord aura, protecting her in clumsy ways: taking a fatal sword strike for her, retrieving her lost spirit sword, even using demon power to save her from a demon cultivator ambush despite the risk of exposure.

He must choose between exposing his identity and losing her, or watching her die...
