Also known as The Smoke of War Locks Their Hearts: The Buddha’s Chosen One and the Warlord Vie for One Man

War and turmoil engulf the land. Xie Yanchen, the Buddha’s chosen one from Wuchen Temple, descends the mountain to search for his fellow disciples, only to stumble upon Luo Xinglan, who is being hunted by Yanyu Pavilion. The youth’s skin is fair as snow, his eyes and brows alluring. The way he clutched Xie Yanchen’s monk’s robe in that desperate moment became the sole exception to the monk’s strict vows.

For his sake, he broke his vows and took a life, then shed his monk’s robe. The aloof Buddha’s chosen one became a demon of vengeance devoted to protecting his beloved, staining his fingertips with blood to give him a lifetime of peace.

Luo Xinglan gradually falls for him amid repeated tests and growing dependence. Though he knows their forbidden love lies on a perilous path, he willingly clings to this man whose possessiveness borders on madness. But during a sudden attack, Luo Xinglan falls off a cliff and loses his memory. When he awakens, he has been rescued by warlord Zhou Yuhuai. The eldest young master of the Zhou family, returned from studying abroad, commands a powerful army and rules with an iron fist, yet he falls sincerely in love with the amnesiac Luo Xinglan. He gives him every luxury, protects him from harm, and treats him with tender devotion, offering everything in the hope that Luo Xinglan will stay by his side.

On one side is the possessive Buddha’s chosen one, whose love is etched into his soul and has endured life and death. On the other is a gentle, indulgent warlord who cherishes and protects him in every way. Lost between two fervent loves, amnesiac Luo Xinglan is bewildered. Zhou Yuhuai’s devotion moves him, yet when Xie Yanchen finally finds him, the look in his eyes makes Luo Xinglan’s heart ache for reasons he cannot explain. When the fragments of his memory finally come together, Luo Xinglan remembers the man who went mad for him.

Seeing the light rekindle in Luo Xinglan’s eyes, Zhou Yuhuai knows he will never find peace with this ending, but in the end he chooses to let go. “What you want isn’t wealth and glory. It’s a bond with him, one that endures life and death.”

Zhou Yuhuai: “As long as you’re happy, I’m willing to let you go,” even if his heart aches.
