The frail top scholar, reborn, decides to strike first alongside his butterfly-fairy wife and take out the spider demon’s lair together.
Liu Jinyuan died inside the body pierced through by the spider demon’s spear, with Caiyi, the butterfly fairy, beside him. She had exhausted her cultivation just to buy him ten more years of life.
At last, he understood that she was no demon. She was the trembling blue-winged butterfly he had once freed from a spider’s web.
When he opened his eyes again, he had reborn on the night he was on the brink of death from poison, when Caiyi first used her demonic power to keep him alive.
This time, Liu Jinyuan decided to live differently. He smiled gently at Caiyi, who stood outside holding a bowl of medicine and trying to look calm.
“You saved my life, so I ought to repay you by marrying you. But before that... would you be willing to join forces with me and take out that spider’s lair in the forest?”
