[Mutual firsts, 1v1: beautiful, honest heroine x ruthless, amoral, possessive hero]
Xie Qingtan was born into the cultivation world and became the sect leader of a tiny sect that was barely scraping by. After a hundred years of hard work, she finally discovered that she had transmigrated into a book she had read before her death, a doomsday cultivation novel about leveling up. And the adopted son she had just taken in was the male lead destined to destroy the world.
Qingtan privately thought he was nothing like the character described in the book. She had no idea that her adopted son had coveted her for a long time, even across two lifetimes...
At twelve, Shen Yanci met Xie Qingtan in a ruined temple. At the time, she was the impoverished leader of the Weichen Sect, while he was a little beggar being bullied by others. But when she reached out to him, she seemed like the sun to him, and for the first time, he felt a desire to have someone all to himself.
When he was weak, he was the most obedient and affectionate adopted son at her side, hiding his sharp edges and quietly eliminating anyone who stood in his way.
But once he had achieved success and fame, even the chains of morality could no longer restrain him.
When he finally remembered his past life, he saw the thick red thread binding them together. At last, he shattered the constraints of their relationship and drew the woman he had long been obsessed with into his arms.
As he stroked her trembling back, he wished he could devour her whole.
“It’s taken two lifetimes, but at last you’re mine again...”
What did the rise and fall of the Three Realms matter to him? And what if all living beings bowed before him?
From the moment the sun reached out its hand to him, his only obsession in becoming stronger was to make her belong to him, completely and utterly!
#The hero falls for her alone and stops at nothing#
#The heroine is slow-witted, beautiful, and honest#
It's so beautiful!
A wonderful short story. Although short, the plot is clearly explained, and the writing is humorous. I read it in one go and highly recommend it.
A good read, depicting the male lead's agonizing journey of unrequited love.
