The Heart’s Debt Amid Fireworks: A Spectacular Romance for a Distressed-Asset Revitalizer of the Underworld
Qin Sanci, a real estate revitalization specialist, is struck by the backlash of a Soul-Devouring Pact and imprisoned in the Underworld’s Graveyard of Broken Artifacts. To repay his debts, he becomes a “project doctor,” using the Ten Thousand Realms Governance Art to revitalize distressed assets in perilous places such as Corpse-Shedding City and the Dragon-Locking Abyss. But he unexpectedly gets caught up in a world-shaking conspiracy sparked by the God of Wealth rewriting the laws governing debts of love.
Dai Tianhuan, master of the Department of the Forgotten River, calculates karmic debts with a thirteen-string zither in her left hand and burns false accounts with a karmic fire orb in her right. When she discovers the secret behind the three Soul-Devouring scars on Qin Sanci’s left shoulder, the truth about the Twin-Hearted, sealed away for ten thousand years, gradually comes to light. Qin Sanci is the descendant of Li Yan, the secret child of the Flint Emperor and the God of Wealth, while the heart beating in Dai Tianhuan’s chest holds the Flint Emperor’s fire seed, which seals Li Yan’s heart-soul!
From sharing a first kiss aboard a sunken ship as they fight off the Lovesickness Debt Parasite, to cutting open their wrists and locking away their souls on the Caramel Pillar of Punishment; from a wedding amid ruins that awakens the power of fireworks, to burning passion and boiling the sea to write off ancient karmic debts. They put their heart-souls up as collateral and calculate compound interest with their soul-blood. On this journey, where the heart is an abacus and the soul is a ledger, they turn poisonous miasma into homes, forge sword energy into sightseeing routes, change daily interest on love debts into merit, and make fireworks their currency. In the end, they destroy the Eternal Servitude Pact of the Nine Hells and forge an everlasting partnership.
When a pancake griddle melts into a wedding ring and a candy-art spoon carves their pledge into a monument, this seemingly perilous debt restructuring proves to be a romantic journey that writes off three lifetimes of karmic ties with a kiss. The most profitable distressed asset turns out to be the true love sealed inside the Soul-Devouring Pact; and the most dangerous debt restructuring uses the cooking smoke of the mortal world to warm the Forgotten River’s frozen night, creating an everlasting legend.
