Thousands of years ago, she was Ji Moyao, the Emperor of Liang Dynasty, and he was Gu Yan, the general of Zhenbei.
The imperial power was in conflict, and the enemy country was suppressing the border. In order to save the people, she asked for a marriage, but was killed by the rebels.
He rushed into the sea of fire and only snatched back a wisp of his soul.
From then on, he made a blood oath: he would exchange his merits for ten lifetimes for her to be safe for the rest of her life.
For thousands of years, he found her reincarnation in every life, but each time he failed to survive until the end.
In his tenth life, he finally learned the forbidden technique - turning his existence into her "guardian spirit" at the cost of losing all his memories.
Thousands of years later, she became Song Qingmo, a graduate student in the Department of Archeology, and he was the only well-preserved "thousand-year wet corpse" in the unknown tomb.
When she faced his eyes that would never close in the tomb, she heard the voice in her heart:
"I've seen you. In every dream, in every breath."
