“I’ll take your life on.”
Xu Yi was once C Country’s brightest S-rank esper, but without a compatible guide, she teetered on the brink of a rampage. She was told she had only five years left to live. Disheartened, she retired and opened a quiet flower shop, only to stumble upon a mysterious dragon egg and hatch a sharp-tongued baby dragon named Ailock.
One day, the aloof, handsome man she accidentally splashed turned out to be Bai Shuyan, an S-rank guide rarely seen in a century. Their souls had a compatibility rate of 93%, making him a “walking fire extinguisher.” The moment his fingertips touched her, the overload value raging inside her plummeted, and a sliver of hope appeared in her seemingly hopeless situation.
However, Bai Shuyan’s stateless status attracted the covetous attention of every faction: the cold threats of dictator Quan Yixiu, secret online deals among senior government officials, and the sinister schemes of rival guilds… To survive, Xu Yi builds an underground market for esper abilities using maze plants, while signing a life-or-death pact with Bai Shuyan.
