When the Wind Crosses the River of Oblivion: A Thousand Years of Longing

In his previous life, the nine-lived Xiangliu was pierced through the heart by countless arrows. Xiaoyao spent a hundred years watching over the Starry Mirror, her regret and obsession eventually taking spirit form and flowing against time back to a thousand years earlier. That year, Xiangliu was not yet the nine-lived demon whose name struck fear into everyone's heart. In the death arena, he was merely a nameless slave covered in wounds. She called herself Luo Xiaojiu. She stayed by his side as they clawed their way from a mountain of corpses and seas of blood back to the human world, becoming the one and only moonlight in his heart. Later, the true princess Xiaoyao was born. Luo Xiaojiu, a manifestation of obsession, was erased by the Heavenly Dao and faded away in his arms. Xiangliu went mad for four hundred years, searching for that wisp of a lingering soul. Four hundred years later, in Qingshui Town. He met Wen Xiaoliu and sensed a familiar soul. Thinking his beloved had finally returned to him, he willingly trapped himself in a cage of his own making. Until the day the mysterious witch of the Guifang Clan appeared. With an unfamiliar face but the unfinished bamboo manuscript in her hands, she made the nine-lived Xiangliu, destined to die on the battlefield, read her Nine Lives, Defying Heaven to Rewrite Fate, hoping to drag him out of his inescapable dead end. On one side was the present-day princess, lively and vibrant, with a complete soul; on the other was the obsession from his previous life, bound to him by shared memories and a life-and-death bond. One soul, divided into two distinct people. Guifang Suye sneered. “Xiangliu, if you choose that princess, I'll take Xiaojiu back to Guifang. We'll never meet again.” At that moment, the arrogant nine-headed demon finally panicked.
