In this universe, Luo Binghe wasn't saved by his Shizun, Shen Qingqiu. Instead, Luo Binghe was chosen by another sect. But alas, the Protagonist Halo failed in that universe, sending him hurtling into the modern world. And who's tasked with turning his frown upside down? None other than Shen Yuan! (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧ It's Shen Yuan's mission to ensure Luo Binghe's happiness, or at least prevent him from turning into a mass murderer. But little did Shen Yuan know, that dealing with a not-yet demon lord from another universe would be like trying to teach a cat to fetch while juggling flaming chainsaws-utterly adorable, yet hopelessly futile!!
