Daylight Reborn

In the second year after returning to the capital, Lin Changnian's father was framed, and her entire family was thrown into prison.

She waited in prison for days, but the only person who came was an unfavored Crown Prince, bearing news of her father's death.

The emperor was incompetent and would stop at nothing to seek immortality. Across Yan and Chu, charlatans abounded, riding the wave of superstition. Her father, too, had been convicted and put to death over an absurd "immortal art."

At first, Lin Changnian was certain it was a plot driven by a thirst for power.

Later, while investigating the case, she glimpsed demons and ghosts and obtained a divine artifact called Daylight's Continuance.

The truth came to light, and her true background was revealed, but she had only uncovered the tip of the iceberg.

Then came rampant demons and turmoil throughout the human world.

Order shattered. Every evil creature that people had never seen in their lives flooded into the human world, feeding on people and bringing calamity in their wake.

The lamp called Daylight's Continuance in her hand could drive away demons and ghosts, burning bones and setting the lamp ablaze.

No one knew that Fu Yu was a false Crown Prince.

He had kept up the act for so long that, aside from his hatred, he could no longer remember what his real self had been like.

Then, at an ordinary spring banquet, a breeze from the eaves brushed past his hair, and his heart suddenly beat twice as fast.

He looked up. A familiar figure stood motionless in the distance.

The Breath-Tying Curse cast years ago stirred their hearts, and his memories returned with it.

The figure of the girl who had led him fleeing through the mountains as a child overlapped with the familiar yet unfamiliar woman before him.

Someone nearby remarked, "Wasn't it said that the only daughter of Chief Councillor Lin has been frail and confined to her home since childhood? Why is she at the flower banquet today?"

At that moment, his life began to flow again.

Fu Yu didn't know when the feelings that had begun with dependence had changed into something else.

When they reunited, he only wanted to help her uncover the truth.

Later, after she had luckily saved his life, he recovered his identity and stayed by her side as family.

But watching others fall for her and be won over by her, he suddenly wanted more.

He wanted to belong to her completely, to merge with her blood and bones, to become the person closest to her.

To possess her in a despicable way, and be possessed by her.

After all, he was used to putting on an act, and his dear older sister had the softest heart.

Better still, they were bound by shared breath, their lives and deaths intertwined. It was a curse their people used to bind themselves to their beloved in a passionate union.

He had simply cast it a little early.
