Lin Shubai has gone completely mad. In a single night, she seizes the seven supernatural cores scattered across the city, turning the streets red with blood as she smiles as gently as ever. No one knows why she did it, until Jiang Che finds her amid the ruins. Once, he took a fatal blow for her. Now he grips a backlash blade, his eyes as cold as a frozen abyss. She didn’t steal power, but fate itself; he isn’t hunting a criminal, but the pieces of her shattered soul. Supernatural abilities across the city collapse, and only she can restart them. He is the only key. When moonlight falls on her bloodstained wedding dress, Jiang Che finally understands: she hasn’t gone mad. She simply stopped wanting to live in a world with him.
