She knelt for a hundred years in that cold, merciless hall, only to have her soul scattered to the winds.
Reborn in this life, sixteen-year-old Hua Qiangu gazed at the white-robed figure on the high seat, then calmly looked away.
She would not join Changliu or enter the immortal sects. Instead, she turned toward the man who had given everything for her in the depths of her memories: the scholar in green who always twirled his fan and called her “Little Bone,” the mysterious master of the Immortal Pavilion, who made his living trading in secrets: Dongfang Yuqing.
“This time, I choose you.”
She thought this was the beginning of her escape from fate. Little did she know she was stepping into another gentle yet possessive web that had long been spread for her.
He paved her way, gave her wings, and sheltered her beneath them, allowing no one else to touch her. His gaze was inscrutable, his smile as warm and elegant as ever, but in those deep-pool eyes lay an obsession even more intense than in her previous life.
“Little Bone, in this life, your joys and sorrows, your path, every choice you make… will have to do with me alone.”
But when Mount Shu faces danger, the Sky-Binding Chain is stolen, and undercurrents stir across the Six Realms, she stands at the crossroads of destiny with the final charge of a frail old man in her heart.
Should she trust him? The man whose tenderness runs deep, but whose obsession borders on madness?
The jade bead meant to calm her rests against her heart, growing faintly warm, while the ink on the scroll in her arms has long since dried like blood.
Can she break free of fate’s cage in this life and seize the light that belongs to her?
or is that light itself another carefully woven illusion?
