What a Surprise! The Aloof Prince Dotes Only on His Adorable Shadow Guard

[Dual male leads, both reborn, younger love interest, cool and aloof prince on the receiving end × devoted, loyal shadow guard on the pursuing end, with a touch of ensemble cast]

From the highest heavens to the deepest underworld, this is a thirteen-year-long murder plot targeting Lan Yu.

Lan Yu should have been the fifth prince of Fengqi, respected by all,

but a kind deed when he was seven led to his imprisonment and torment at the hands of the Underworld Pavilion's master.

After successfully killing his way to the top, he was stabbed to death by the very family affection he had yearned for.

Reborn into another life, Lan Yu decides to live like a dead man,

wanting only to repay the debt he owes his little shadow guard. All other demons and monsters can back off!

Then he spent thirteen whole years making his way to the man's side.

But in the end, even with a thousand arrows piercing his heart, he still couldn't protect him, and could only watch him fall from the Cliff of No Return.

Reborn once more, Wuming thought he would be content as long as he could stay by the man's side.

But the man told him he wanted him to become his one and only prince consort.

Jun Wuhen, the former master of the Bilu Palace, was nearing the end of his life and searching for a vessel to possess.

The condition for taking over a body was that its soul had to have traveled back in time. With the soul and body unstable in their union, there would be a chance of success.

Since a soul could only travel back in time if its owner leaped from the Cliff of No Return while clinging to an obsession, Jun Wuhen arranged for the new emperor to launch a siege against Prince Anle.

He simply hadn't expected that the man's mental strength would be far greater than he'd imagined.

It seemed he would have to take his time with the possession...
