Xianxia / Fantasy Romance / Angsty Love / Mutual Redemption / Reunited After Heartbreak / Groveling to Win Her Back
The Divine Lord is Both Cruel and Tender. The Three Realms are divided, immortals and demons cannot coexist, and fate is a blade that cuts down anyone foolish enough to love. Ling Xi is the last surviving orphan of the Spirit Clan, born with an innate spirit body. The day she ascends to the Ninth Heaven, she catches the eye of Xuan Chen, the supreme ruler of the Celestial Realm.
Pure and sincere, she lays her whole heart before him, trusting him to protect her and believing he loves her to the depths of his soul.
Cold and taciturn, his eyes as icy as his expression, he secretly bears the trials fate has laid upon her, hiding a tenderness and madness no one else can see.
She does not know that she was born to be the blood sacrifice that seals an ancient beast. He does not tell her that, as an ancient Divine Lord who vowed himself to the Dao, he has already resolved to give his divine bones and essence to save her. On the Execution Platform, he personally strips her of her immortal bones and severs her path to immortality, then lets her leap from the platform, never to see her again in life or death. She falls into the demonic path, her cool nature turning ruthless, and hates him to the bone, striking at him with every blow. He destroys his divine essence and guards her at the River of Forgetfulness for three hundred years, yielding at every turn and suffering wounds all over.
Immortals and demons walk different paths, locked in opposition. He grovels to win her back while she coldly cuts off their old love. Only when the ancient secrets are revealed does she learn that the punishment that stripped her bones was his way of protecting her by trading his life for hers; their three hundred years of torment and entanglement were all the depth of his love that he never dared to confess.
Bai Wei's poisonous scheme comes to light, the ancient beast awakens, and the blood sacrifice draws near as the Three Realms teeter on the brink of collapse. She is the offering, and he is the one who will sacrifice himself. This time, she refuses to let him die alone, and he will not let her face the calamity.
Her immortal bones burn away, his demonic soul shields her, and their soul-flames merge as they defy fate together. They can cast aside the divine throne and abandon the Three Realms. I want no eternal supremacy; I only want you. Even if our bones burn to ash, we will go together. We will grow old together in the mortal world and find happiness year after year. A love that cuts to the bone, mutual redemption, a shattered bond mended at last, and a happy ending.
