Female Lead: Xi He, a supreme deity. Betrayed ten thousand years ago, she gouged out her divine heart and fell into a deep sleep. When she awakens ten thousand years later, she has only thirty percent of her divine power. Without a heart, her body is frail and her emotions are distant. She is kind, but unfeeling, with unmatched intelligence and combat prowess.
Male Lead: Xiao Jin, a battle-hardened, ruthless prince and general of the Xuanchen Kingdom, unrivaled in strategy. Forced to marry the “daughter of a divine physician,” he later falls for the female lead.
World: The Land of Divine Punishment, a place of scarce resources, chaotic laws, and rampant demons and monsters. The three great kingdoms, Xuanchen, Donghuang, and Cangwu, maintain peace on the surface, but tensions simmer beneath.
Key Characters:
Bai Zhi: The real daughter of a divine physician. Selfish and greedy, she has the unconscious female lead take her place in marriage, then runs off with the money.
Helian Jue: Crown Prince of Donghuang, a scheming and ambitious rival of the male lead.
Feng Linyuan: High Priest of Cangwu, mysterious and neutral. He knows ancient secrets and has a special connection to the female lead.
Yun Yi: Imperial Preceptor of Xuanchen, a descendant of the Yun clan whom the goddess saved ten thousand years ago. He seems like a righteous ally, but is actually a twisted figure who steers her toward revenge. He may come to his senses and sacrifice himself later in the story.
Central conflicts: Heartlessness versus compassion, frailty versus divine power, forgetting versus the burden of memory, and mortal love versus divine indifference.
