The Second Male Lead Has It Good, While the Female Supporting Character Fights for Everything!

In the misty forest of the Xuan Cang Realm, Dugu Yao dies by the sword of Xuan Yuan Jin, the man she had obsessively loved all her life. In her final moments, she sees her childhood friend Xie Jingxing gravely wounded while protecting her, then falling to demonic corruption and dying a tragic death. As blood and tears fall onto the protective jade pendant Xie Jingxing gave her, she makes a desperate wish: “If I get another chance, I’ll devote myself to him alone.” To her astonishment, she is reborn at sixteen with all her memories of her past life, on the very morning she is about to go meet Xuan Yuan Jin for the first time.

This time, Dugu Yao tears up her training order and rushes straight to the Xie estate. In front of the entire household, she declares, “Xie Jingxing, I want to marry you!” The once-spoiled Dugu heiress who was hopelessly in love transforms into his fiercely protective wife-to-be. She insists on moving into his Neighboring Moon Pavilion, turns away all his admirers, secretly slips him the pills she’s been saving for three months, joins him in identifying herbs in the medicinal garden and refining pills in the alchemy room, and even insists on holding his hand whenever they go shopping.

Xie Jingxing, the gentle and refined young master of the Xie clan, finally has his love of five years returned. His initial delight soon turns into complete indulgence: when she strains her qi during cultivation, he channels spiritual energy into her to stabilize it; when she gets into trouble and snaps back at people, he uses formations to cover for her; when she wants spirit herbs, he grits his teeth and spends all his savings. They cultivate and brave every trial together, awakening their talents: she identifies poisons by scent, while his ability to see living meridians lets him heal injuries. They advance side by side through Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, and Divine Transformation.

Beneath the surface, tensions are mounting among the four great clans…
