Proud, aloof male lead × brave, adorable female lead
Who would have thought that a crane demon capable of creating an independent space would be betrayed by his own bonded magic weapon, which chose an ordinary human as its master?
He doesn't deny that she saved him in her previous life. But the debt has been repaid, so their ties should have ended there.
When they meet again, Wen Jiuqing treats him like an enemy, but still can't resist teasing him.
"I saved you in my previous life. Why didn't you offer yourself to me?"
"You already had grown children back then," he retorted, scowling.
"I'm still young in this life. So offer yourself to me."
"No."
But later, when she is stricken by poison and hovering between life and death, he, usually so proud, stakes his entire life's cultivation and leans over her with red-rimmed eyes, begging her not to die.
"In this life, I offer myself to you. If you come back to life, I will bond my very being to yours and give you eternal life."
A secret of the Crane Clan: a bond of body and soul can create a contract spirit, and an ordinary human can gain eternal life through it.
He didn't understand before. Now he finally does: all he has ever wanted, from beginning to end, is her.
