Before meeting Bai Yunyi, she had never thought about leaving Feng Qingtian. After all, it wasn’t easy to meet someone who was genuinely good to her.
She wouldn’t have fled if she wasn’t worried that he would use their baby.
So, whatever Feng Qingtian told her now, she could accept it.
What bothered her was that Feng Qingtian had been keeping things from her.
“In our past life, you clashed with me when you tried to save Bai Yunyi. I punished Bai Yunyi partly because of jealousy but also because I had to. You got angry at me for it and ran to the human world. When I looked for you, you ran to the Nether World. The bracelet you’re wearing was something you took from the Nether World, which is a place I can’t enter…”
Gu Bailu looked at the Soul Collecting Bracelet on her wrist. She didn’t know that the bracelet had been with her for that long.
“Then, the Demon King successfully passed his tribulation, and you followed the Nether World’s King of Hell to the Demon World. You thrived in the Demon World, and you and the Demon King were like sworn brothers. He told you that I loved you because you were the only woman I could touch, and I wanted you to give birth to a son who would rule the universe and all the realms would have to listen to me.”
Listening to what the Demon King was saying, Gu Bailu remembered that even though Feng Qingtian pampered her and indulged her, he was unwilling to give up destroying the human world for her sake, or to release her friend Bai Yunyi; he couldn’t have really loved her.
Thus, she started to believe that the Heavenly Emperor was only using her to carry his baby.
Coincidentally, she got pregnant back then.
When Feng Qingtian heard the news, he personally ran to the Demon World without care for anything else to bring her back, which made Gu Bailu hate him even more. He hadn’t come when she wasn’t pregnant, but the moment she was with child, he brought her back right away.
The Demon King was right. He was only using her to carry his baby.
How could Gu Bailu take it? She asked Feng Qingtian back then if the only reason he was good to her was because of the baby.
Feng Qingtian could only tell her the truth. At the very beginning, he had indeed treated her so well because she was the only woman who could carry his baby. However, before he could finish what he was saying, Gu Bailu went crazy.
She couldn’t accept that a man who cherished her so much was only using her, and didn’t love her at all.
In her frenzy, she raised her hand and was about to kill the baby in her womb.
When Feng Qingtian tried to stop her, she struggled and even hit Feng Qingtian in her madness.
Scared that she might hurt the baby, Feng Qingtian didn’t dare fight back.
As if she was possessed, Gu Bailu was determined to kill Feng Qingtian. Feng Qingtian realized something wasn’t right, and only then noticed that Gu Bailu had a life-or-death curse on her.
If she was determined to kill someone, she would die if she failed to kill her target.
It was a curse based on the strongest hate, and only the Archfiend was capable of casting it.
Feng Qingtian knew that someone must’ve secretly planted this curse on Gu Bailu when she was outside. He was grieved and didn’t want her to die.
However, he couldn’t lift the curse, so he let Gu Bailu kill him.
He wanted Gu Bailu to rule Heavenly Palace Cliff with their son. Even if he was dead, there was still a chance for him to come back.
But he didn’t expect for Gu Bailu’s curse to be lifted after he died. When she realized that she did the dumbest thing in the world and killed the person who loved her the most, she went even more insane.
