Longing for You: By Your Side, Always

Standing at opposite ends of fate, we lost each other and found each other again. This time, no more longing from afar: we’ll stay by each other’s side!

When Tian Jing was married, Xiang Liu was fighting on the battlefield. As the ceremony ended, he was pierced by ten thousand arrows, and his corpse dissolved into bloody water. When the army returned victorious and Xiao Tian learned that Xiang Liu had died in battle, she was devastated.

“Aren’t you the nine-lived Xiang Liu? Aren’t you the demon king of the sea?”

“How could you die?”

“You wouldn’t even leave me one last thing to remember you by! Am I really so worthless in your heart?”

After sitting alone all night, Xiao Tian finally understood her own feelings. She resolved to divorce Tu Shan Jing and return to Jade Mountain, her heart turned to ashes. When the big-bellied smiling doll was opened, Xiang Liu’s overwhelming love was finally brought to light.

After learning everything Xiang Liu had done for her, Xiao Tian was consumed with regret. Just as she was about to follow him in death, she suddenly discovered she was pregnant, and that Xiang Liu might still be brought back to life. She decided to resume her cultivation, so she could protect herself and resurrect him.

The Gui Fang clan found Xiang Liu’s remnant soul and brought him back to life using their secret arts and nine Soul-Returning Herbs, giving him the new name Gui Fang Fang.

The Gui Fang elders sent him beautiful courtesans and offered him Forgetting Water, hoping he would forget his past and start a new life. But Xiang Liu saw through their scheme. After many twists and turns, Tian and Liu were reunited at last, able to stay together and share their lives.
