She is the reincarnation of an ancient Azure Lotus, the purest inheritor of the Nine Heavens. He is Xuanli, an immortal lord fallen to the mortal realm, condemned for bathing the Three Realms in blood. A war between immortals and demons brings two souls who should never have met together in the mortal world.
“Do you believe I slaughtered everyone on Kunlun?” He points his sword at her brow, yet his eyes conceal a wordless desire to protect her. She conjures her soul-bound lotus flame and lets its blazing fire burn away every disguise. “I believe in the frost and snow between your brows, and even more in the living beings in your blood that have not yet been forgotten.”
As the thirty-third heaven collapses and the Yellow Springs run backward, she blossoms into a nine-petaled primordial spirit in his bloodstained arms. It turns out the greatest tribulation in this world is a god falling in love with a mortal, and the undying lotus born from chaos.
In this trial of love, she will defy heaven and change her fate.
