[Redemptive Love · Mutual Testing · Equally Matched · Fated]
[Unhinged, Devoted Tyrant Top (Xuan Yuan Li) × Patient, Alluring Spirit-Medicine Bottom (Ye Zhiwei)]
[Cruelty is my nature; restraint is how I love you.]
Xuan Yuan Li is the most powerful tyrant in the Nine Provinces. His crumbling spiritual meridians are both his curse and his weapon.
Everyone believes the spirit medicine he keeps captive in his palm, now taking human form as Ye Zhiwei, is nothing more than an ingredient to keep him alive.
Until his spiritual power runs wild and he slams Ye Zhiwei against the wall. His burning breath brushes over Ye Zhiwei’s cool neck as he growls hoarsely:
“You’re not medicine… You’re the only poison I have.”
Ye Zhiwei looks up, his dark eyes as still as a deep pool, while his fingertip lightly traces the meridians crumbling within Xuan Yuan Li.
“Your Majesty,” he says coolly, his tone both tempting and rejecting, “are you sure you’re the one in control of me?”
#He thinks he’s the hunter, but he’s already walked into the cage#
#At the end of madness lies willing submission#
After dying from overwork, top executive Ye Zhiwei is reborn as a spirit medicine destined to die.
To survive, he keeps his head down and lays his plans around the tyrant.
Once he realizes that grasping the tyrant’s lifeline means he won’t have to die, he lets loose.
