Two male leads: a twisted, brooding man x a beautiful loner
[1v1 enemies-to-lovers couple, corruption, reunion after a long separation, mending a broken relationship, simmering tension, one man unknowingly playing the other]
In his previous life, Luo Qiyun cultivated the Merciless Dao. He had a Dao companion betrothed to him through an alliance with the Phoenix Clan, and to outsiders, the two seemed to have no feelings for each other.
For certain reasons, he had no choice but to kill his Dao companion. After proving his Dao by killing his wife, Luo Qiyun fell into the cycle of reincarnation and became an unloved prince in the mortal realm.
Having lost all his memories, he met Si Yetang again. Si Yetang saved him when he was on the verge of death, then tortured him. Luo Qiyun couldn’t understand why Si Yetang would save him if he hated him.
Si Yetang, too, was dissatisfied that Luo Qiyun had so easily forgotten everything. Because of that single sword strike, he had missed out on everything and lost it all.
Whether it was hatred or affection, Si Yetang’s feelings toward Luo Qiyun were complicated. He turned him into a monster and humiliated him, yet whenever Luo Qiyun was hurt, he couldn’t bear it.
Luo Qiyun was grateful to him for saving his life. To him, Si Yetang was his ill-tempered, eccentric savior.
He couldn’t understand Si Yetang’s audacious, outrageous behavior, yet he was drawn to his mysterious beauty and wanted to uncover the sorrow in his eyes.
Si Yetang discovered that Luo Qiyun showed him all kinds of expressions and even smiled at him. In the past, Luo Qiyun had never deigned to spare him a glance, and everyone had thought Si Yetang a fool nursing a one-sided love.

They uncovered the truth behind the Phoenix Clan’s annihilation, as well as the real reason for Luo Qiyun’s reincarnation. In the cycle of cause and effect, some were insatiably greedy, some held themselves back, and some loved without realizing it.
Through a twist of fate, they had missed each other for a thousand years. In his previous life, Luo Qiyun’s love had been far too subtle. This time, he wouldn’t let go again.
The early part is pretty twisted and unhinged. The puppy is torn between love and hate for his beloved, saying one thing while meaning another. These two need to learn to communicate.
