   The sharpest blade in this world is not a sword, but the predetermined cause and effect. In ancient times, when chaos first separated, gods governed the way of cause and effect, overseeing the cycle of all things. Later, these gods fell, their divine essence splitting in two—one wielding the "cause," able to sow fortune or misfortune with a single thought; the other controlling the "effect," able to reverse calamity with a flick of the finger. The two are mutually reinforcing and mutually restraining, eternally entangled. He is Yun Heng, the supreme Crown Prince of the Nine Heavens. Born with the power to "sow causes," everything he thinks becomes destiny. A careless word can overturn mountains and rivers; a glance of attraction can sow the seeds of catastrophic disaster. The immortals revere him, yet also fear him—for no one in this world can sever the cause and effect he has planted, until the appearance of the other shore flower demon. She is Tu Li, the most vibrant other shore flower at the end of the River of Oblivion. Born in the blood sea of ​​the underworld, she has witnessed countless partings of life and death. Yet, she possessed the power of "Devouring Fruit," capable of devouring and erasing any predetermined calamity. The demons coveted her, the celestial realm feared her, and she, veiled in red, wandered the three realms, seeking only a place to belong. — Until that day, she fled desperately into his palace. When their eyes met, Yun Heng felt a sudden, sharp pain in his heart, as if destiny had finally begun its cycle. Tu Li, however, was unaware that this single glance had already caused him to uncontrollably plant the first seed of disaster in her fate… Love is instinct, and also a curse. The deeper his affection, the more she teetered on the brink of death; the more she tried to save herself, the more unbearable his pain became.

   Reader note

   😭Another bombshell of Republican-era angst has hit the mark! This book, *Butterfly Shadow Returns to Dust*, made me cry so much my contact lenses fell out! Sisters, don't be fooled by the title! This isn't some sweet romance set in the Republican era; it's a series of poisoned knives stabbing into my heart! 🌟 The most heart-wrenching part isn't the separation by death, but the "unrecognizable love until the very end": The female protagonist, Lin Die'er, endures humiliation and imprisonment by her enemy to protect her child with Zhang Zhiming (the male protagonist). She gives birth to her son at great risk, only to watch helplessly as her enemy raises the child as his own. And the male protagonist? He searches for her for ten years! Ten years later, when they meet again, she wears a kimono and says to him in broken Japanese, "Sir, you've mistaken me for someone else." Turning the corner, she leans against the wall, weeping silently, while he leaves in despair in the wind. The most devastating thing is that he dies without ever knowing that he has a son who calls his enemy "father"! This kind of blood-related separation and time-lapse is absolutely heart-wrenching! 👑 A must-mention character is Yang Yanchen: He's not the male lead, but he's my eternal "white moonlight." He rescued her from dire straits, taught her survival, and protected her. The greatest sophistication of the entire book lies in the fact that Yang Yanchen never touched Lin Die'er once. His love was extreme, yet restrained. In the end, she died in his arms after taking a bullet for him, and he pleaded with her, his eyes red: "In the next life, let's be an ordinary couple." She only said one word: "Okay." He gave his life for her next life; this kind of deep affection is truly amazing! 📖 Warnings before viewing: 1. Absolutely tragic ending, the ending will make you numb with heartache. 2. The female lead has misunderstandings and is willful in the early stages, but you'll feel incredibly sorry for her later. 3. Prepare a whole pack of tissues; I advise you not to watch this in public, you'll really cry out loud! Sisters, go watch it, and I'll be waiting for you to cry together in the comments! ---[Crying]
