Chi Yuan jumped from a building but didn't die. When she opened her eyes, she'd fallen into another world.

Her heart had long since died. In this other world, she killed herself ninety-nine times in a row, and each time she came back to life without feeling any pain.

At the moment of her hundredth death and rebirth, the System of Salvation finally squeezed its way online, nearly in tears with panic:

[Host! Please stop dying! You died the moment you got here, and I haven't even had a chance to speak!]

Then it hurriedly came clean:

[In the future, the Demon King will bring ruin to all living beings, and the world will face a calamity. You are its only savior.]

Chi Yuan couldn't summon the slightest bit of enthusiasm. Living was boring. As for saving the world? She'd see how she felt.

Amid a blizzard, she rescued a little white fox with an injured, broken leg, completely unaware that this frail fox was the very Demon King who would one day bring ruin to all living beings.

Fragments of memories from past lives came one after another, laying her former fate before her eyes: She had taken countless arrows for him, her soul scattered and destroyed. After losing her, the Demon King was consumed by grief, tore out his own demon core, and descended into darkness, bringing ruin to the world.

Seeing the horrific ending in which they were destined to part in life or death, Chi Yuan wanted nothing to do with him.

“I want to live now. According to fate, we're destined to part forever, so stay away from me.”

The white-haired boy held her tightly, his eyes full of both obsession and desperation.

“The fate of all living beings means nothing to me. I don't care about the will of Heaven or destiny. A Yuan, all I ask is that you stay by my side.”

Chi Yuan was bewildered. Was this the Demon King who would wreak havoc across the world? He seemed more like a big puppy terrified of being abandoned by its owner.
