[No logic + Misunderstandings and missed chances + Fiercely protective + Sweet and angsty + Younger man + Xianxia]
A genuinely kind, slow-witted beauty-loving bottom who only pretends to be a pushover × A man who only pretends to cultivate the Heartless Path but is actually endlessly doting
One is a laughingstock, a so-called pushover. A thousand years ago, he descended to the mortal realm to undergo tribulation and, after kindly bringing someone home, saw his entire kingdom destroyed. Ever since, people have called him that. The other is one of the few Divine Lords left from ancient times. After slaughtering the demon clan, rumors spread that he cultivated the Heartless Path. No one knows his past, and because his sins of slaughter are so great, everyone keeps their distance. These two men had nothing to do with each other, until a little immortal official accidentally tied their red strings of fate together and entangled them. Was it long-planned, or simply a chance encounter?
As fate would have it, the two enter the mortal world one after the other to undergo tribulation. One is said to be a monster without feelings, the other a fool who is far too warmhearted. Yet when these two, one cold and one warm, meet, a tenderness unknown to anyone else blossoms between them.
They share three lifetimes of love in the human world, yet none ends happily. The Matchmaker and the others look at their red strings and laugh. “These two were never suited for each other. Look, even with their strings tied together, they can’t spark anything.” But when they see who is standing behind the returning pushover in the immortal realm, they all fall silent. Who could that figure, almost like his shadow, be if not the Divine Lord of the Heartless Path?
