The Lihuo Command

Was their meeting, their growing close, their life together... and even their love, all the result of a scheme?

Thousands of years were but a fleeting moment in the long life of a god.

Bei Ci awoke after his divine essence returned to him. A tear seemed to trace the corner of his eye, and his chest throbbed faintly, as if an arrow had pierced his heart. It also felt hollow, as though his heart were missing. He remembered the thousand years when his divine essence had inhabited Yun Yuan of the demon race, like a great dream...

The Lihuo Command was issued, and all demons returned to the sect. In his true godly form, he attended her ceremony of succession as Demon Venerable. "I am looking for a disciple. Would the Demon Venerable be willing to take me as her master?" He was fulfilling the promise he had made to her a thousand years before...

Adorned with bone jade, he voiced his longing. He gave her a stone of steadfastness and his true heart. They traveled to the eight wildernesses to prove their love...

"Call it backlash or atonement, I, Lizhu, who was never accepted by the world to begin with, will bear it all. You are a true god, and should live as long as heaven and earth and endure alongside the four seas."

The Lihuo defies fate; the steadfast rock will never shift. Where are the stars? In the Pure Lake, a lotus heart blooms.
