“I want the order between yin and yang to collapse, while you want the laws of the human world to endure. And yet, you are the one person I can never forget.”
Chu Lin and Tang Jiao
An amnesiac, malevolent new Ghost King of Youdu, consumed by obsession
The ninety-ninth-generation heir to the Celestial Masters, and chief of the Yin-Yang Inspection Bureau
☆☆☆☆☆
- Chu Lin led an army to encircle Youdu. Tang Jiao crushed the heads of three of his fellow disciples with her bare hands, then raised an eyebrow and smiled at him. “Your blood... tastes familiar.”
- He struck her heart with a lightning talisman, but she let it pierce her. A blood-red begonia blossomed from the wound. She seized him by the throat and said, “Master Celestial, your heart is beating so loudly.”
2. [The Love Tribulation Erupts]
- Tang Jiao stormed the Inspection Bureau in search of fragments of her memory. Chu Lin pinned her inside an Exorcism Formation with Divine-Binding Chains. She sneered, “Is this all your sect can do?”
- Then he discovered that the formation's core required a blood sacrifice from a close relative. In Tang Jiao's fractured memories, a truth from three hundred years ago flashed past: an ancestor of the Chu family had fed himself to a ghost...
3. [A Curse Shared Between Them]
- As Chu Lin lay dying, Tang Jiao bit open her wrist and forced him to drink her ghost blood. “I want you alive so you can hate me.”
- Yet he tucked his last protective talisman into the tattered front of her wedding dress. “Before you vanish into dust... remember to repay the life you owe me.”
Details of their sexual tension
- Tang Jiao's malevolent aura can set talisman papers ablaze within a hundred li, but Chu Lin's incantations are the only ones that can't burn her skin. They only make it flush.
