The plot follows the drama more closely. If Zhang Qiling’s soul is a wisp of smoke drifting across the blue sky, then rust sunk at the bottom of a well has seeped into Li Cu’s flesh and blood. That is his true soul. A seventeen-year-old boy’s fate was so fragile it seemed transparent, easily pierced even by the midday sun in July.

Disheartened, he managed to escape a deadly pursuit. When he resurfaced, it was five years later, and he had become Xiaocanglang's representative. His reunion with Wu Xie was pure theater, all because he had something that could save Hei Xiazi.

    Reader note

    I recommend these three books, all featuring Li Cu. The first is *Sand Sea*, the second is *The Mystic Nine*, and the third is *The Naive Era*. I personally love them to death! The first book features Yang Hao, Su Wan, Hu Bayi, Wu Xie, Zhang Qiling, Hei Xiazi, and Xiao Hua. The second book features Su Wan, Yang Hao, Er Yuehong, Zhang Qishan, Zhang Rishan, Qi Tiezui, Chen Pi, Hei Xiazi, Zhang Qiling, and Wu Xie (there seem to be a few more, but it's been a while since I finished reading them, so I've forgotten). The third book features Zhang Qiling, Hei Xiazi, Wu Xie, Xiao Hua, Wang Ze, Su Wan, and Guan Gen. Actually, Wang Can should be included, but he wasn't an adult yet.
