[Decisive killing + inheritance-focused + one female lead + supernatural mysteries and suspense + satisfying power progression]
“In this world, when people die, they are gone for good. Only their final wishes endure.”
In the Jiuyuan Realm, the immortal path stands far above all. The final wishes of the dead are extracted by wealthy clans and turned into “wish slaves,” forced to serve them! Lu Tingdeng, a humble lamplighter at the Returning Light Shop, only wants to uncover the truth behind his father's disappearance. Then one day, a rare treasure called the Lantern of Ten Thousand Wishes ignites within his life flame.
As long as he hears a dead person's final wish and fulfills it, he can directly inherit their cultivation, abilities, and peerless Dao fruit from when they were alive!
But borrowing a wish to change fate means bearing its weight. Faced with the vast Wish Returning Bureau, an organization that treats the dead's wishes as disasters to be suppressed and arbitrarily altered, Lu Tingdeng raises a lone lamp. At his back follows a mysterious young woman who emerged from an endless tide of blue lanterns, and together they stomp this unjust world into pieces.
One flame burns eternal; ten thousand wishes return to their source. In this life, I seek no immortality. I only want a clear conscience and every wish fulfilled!
