Three thousand years ago, he was a human child whom the great Demon King had picked up along the way.
The Demon King loved him for an entire lifetime, but never once won a smile from him. When the human passed away a hundred years later, the Demon King sealed away his powers, abandoned his noble status, and entered the cycle of reincarnation with him.
But how could the Demon King know how heartbreakingly the man had suppressed his longing and refused to love him in return?
Yan Xi, you know only that I have loved you for a thousand years, but you don't know that I have loved you for ten thousand lifetimes…
A thousand years ago:
“Xuan Mo, can you really bear to betray my true feelings like this?” Yan Xi gazed into his eyes and asked, his voice filled with sorrow.
At that, Xuan Mo looked at him coldly. “Yan Xi, I am nothing but a mere human. Why would I deserve the favor of the King of the Demon Realm?”
In the present day:
“Xuan Mo, what's with that sour face? Am I really so unpleasant to look at?” Yan Xi raised an eyebrow, pretending to look fierce.
Looking at his handsome face, Xuan Mo shook his head with a wry smile. “There is no one in this world as beautiful as you.”
Yan Xi was just about to ask why Xuan Mo wouldn't have him if he thought so, when Xuan Mo added, “But no matter how beautiful you are, it has nothing to do with me.”
See how the tangled love between these two, spanning countless lifetimes, finally reaches its end.
