Lin Chunsheng had been born able to hear the souls of the dead in the Abyss of Nightmare. After a calamity, he was forced to join Gu Chenyue, commander of the Abyss Suppression Bureau, on the path to exorcising nightmares.
Ten years his senior, Gu Chenyue was powerful and dependable. To protect Lin Chunsheng, he planted a heart-guarding seal on him. Lin Chunsheng once thought he had finally found someone who would never abandon him.
But when the truth came to light, he turned out to be the sacrificial offering the Tianheng Sect had sought for years. As the long night approached, he had to learn to stop relying on anyone. And Gu Chenyue, who had always denied his feelings, was finally forced to admit that this protection had long since become more than a duty.
