"The previous Lingzi has died... The inheritance can be received."
When the cold prompt rang out in my mind, I hesitated. The next day, the entire timeline collapsed before my eyes! To snatch the one I loved back from the torrent of apocalypse, I was forced to accept the curse known as the "Lingzi."
The price? I lost all seven emotions and six desires. What beat in my chest was no longer a heart, but a cold gear that drove the timeline. I became a provider of emotions, sustaining countless worlds, yet I could no longer feel warmth or touch love. I became... a person without feeling.
They call me a god, the supreme ruler of the timeline. Beneath the moonlight, I stand atop a King of Hearts that blocks out the sky, floating above all living things as I proclaim the cold iron law: "Who is the Lingzi of the countless timelines? In a world ruled by the survival of the fittest, I am the rule!"
Fireworks burst brilliantly, illuminating the figures of boys my age on their way to the afterlife, where they would reunite with their families. But I, Chen Bai, a god stripped of emotion, could only drag my hollow body through the broken timelines, wandering alone.
I hunt, I seize, I travel through the gaps in space and time, all to reclaim what was torn away from me: joy, anger, sorrow, delight, love, hatred, and desire!
The day the seven emotions burn anew and the divine fire returns will be the day this timeline, which imprisoned me, toyed with me, and took everything from me... hears the bell of my revenge!
This time, I will write the rules, and divine punishment will pour from my palm.
