[Xianxia + light angst + episodic stories + a touch of ensemble cast + sweet on the outside, dark within]
After Feng Jiutian was recruited into the Immortal Realm, she was fitted with a Godbinding Ring, lost her magic and most of her memories, and was banished to the Thirty-Third Heaven.
There, she opened a shop called the House of Answers, where she specialized in solving the immortals' difficult problems. The Celestial Emperor assigned the cold-faced immortal official Bai Zhiyu to keep an eye on her.
Unexpectedly, while helping an immortal lord resolve his troubles, Feng Jiutian and Bai Zhiyu were pulled into the cycle of reincarnation and karma. After it ended, things between them became awkward. Having shared a tribulation of love, how were they supposed to face each other and live under the same roof now?
Feng Jiutian thought they could continue to get along peacefully, but that cold-faced immortal official actually turned dark...
Bai Zhiyu was injured while purifying baleful energy on Mount Kunlun, leaving some of it behind in his body. The baleful energy was exceptionally well hidden. But after Feng Jiutian went alone to meet an immortal lord at the Peach Banquet, Bai Zhiyu felt his thoughts slipping further and further beyond his control. Finally, after Feng Jiutian vanished for ten days and ten nights, the last thread of control in his mind snapped.
He actually planted a Love-and-Passion Gu in Feng Jiutian himself. Only when desire stirred could the pain of the Gu's attacks be eased...
This isn't a strong female-lead story. There may be non-consensual romance, so please don't read if that bothers you~
