After Being Reborn, the Ruthless Pavilion Master Spoils His Little Shadow Guard

[Historical BL] [Sweet Romance and Political Intrigue] [Reborn] [Mutual Devotion]

Mad Lord of the Pavilion vs. Cold, aloof Shadow Guard

Bathed in frost and moonlight, Yan stands amid the vast wilderness,

His phoenix eyes, clear and cold, chill the eight corners of the world.

Returning to this life with a soft sword in hand,

He gives Bai Shu alone a single ray of light.

After guarding a grave for three years and watching half his hair turn white, Yan Qinghan died in the snow on White Plum Slope, the day he wiped out the entire rebel faction.

When he opened his eyes, he had been reborn at the age of twenty. The young shadow guard Bai Shu had yet to die after taking three Bone-Piercing Spikes for him, and the muscle-crippling Gu that would lock his meridians had yet to be slipped into his tea by Elder Zhou.

In his previous life, he only learned at the very end that the boy who barely spoke, always standing behind him to take the blade in his stead, harbored an obsession more than a little mad.

In this life, he wouldn’t let his little shadow guard get mixed up in that vile business, and he wouldn’t let blood stain his hands again.

Others feared that the hand holding his blade would be stained with blood. He instead placed a short blade forged from cold iron in Bai Shu’s hand and personally taught him how to dismantle every assassination plot.

When Elder Zhou and Elder Gu tried to smuggle Gu worms into the Pavilion to harm them, he turned their scheme against them, locking the entire rebel faction into a deadly trap.

In his previous life, Bai Shu had simply been too sensible, swallowing every hardship alone until he eventually gave up his life as well.

In this life, Yan Qinghan didn’t want him to be sensible. He didn’t want him to endure in silence or hide his grievances away.

He wanted him to laugh, to make a fuss, to do whatever he pleased.

Even if the sky fell, Yan Qinghan would hold it up.

The greatest meaning of being reborn wasn’t revenge, but making amends for the past. The feelings he never had the chance to express in his previous life came first. Revenge was merely a side benefit.
