A sudden accident tore the most perfect love in the modern city to pieces.
Unwilling to accept her fate, Xue Wan used the most steadfast love in her heart to knock on the gods’ door. In return, she received an unimaginably cruel wager: carrying all her memories, she would transmigrate through three thousand worlds alone, searching among the endless crowds of every lifetime for the scattered fragments of the soul of the one she loved most.
From a Republic-era world battered by wind and rain to an icy, unknown future; from a ruthless warlord who held power over an entire region to a heartless, passionless immortal revered in the Nine Heavens... In each reincarnation, he appeared before her in a new form. He bore the familiar aura of the soul she knew so well, yet was a complete stranger. Every encounter became a new love, one that tore at her heart.
But the rules of the wager were far crueler than she had imagined.
Every “victory” meant watching the “him” she had just fallen in love with walk to his death before her eyes. And she, too, had to die with him so she could carry that fragment into the next life.
When the hunter begins to fall in love with one “prey” after another; when her original fixation begins to waver beneath the weight of new, genuine memories and feelings in each lifetime... only then does she realize that she may never be able to win the wager she made with the gods.
Is love about staying true to an undying memory, or protecting a living, breathing soul?
As she crosses three thousand worlds, is she searching for the original “him,” or for an answer that even she herself does not know?
