The whole story is finished, and I’ve already revised it once, so it definitely won’t be abandoned. My next historical romance, Has Third Young Master Pei Become a Lady Tonight?, was submitted for a contract review. I later felt that it didn’t meet my standards, so I’m planning to rewrite it over the next few days. I’ve already published tens of thousands of words, and expect to release it again in mid-to-late September. If you’re interested, please add it to your collection. Love you all.
For eighteen years, Yin Kuaixue flaunted her male appearance. The day she fell from the sect’s precious jewel to the top of the demon rankings, her old friend Xiao Yandu shot an arrow straight through her heart.
Fourteen years later, she crawled out of her own tomb.
She planned to uncover the truth about what happened back then and, while she was at it, kill Xiao Yandu for revenge.
But she soon discovered that:
If she came within thirty feet of Xiao Yandu, she grew dizzy and disoriented.
If she came within three hundred feet, her soul left her body.
If she came within three thousand feet, she would die.
Yin Kuaixue: “…”
How was she supposed to get revenge now?
To stay alive, she had no choice but to follow Xiao Yandu everywhere.
Xiao Yandu exorcised evil spirits, and she followed.
Xiao Yandu investigated a case, and she followed.
Xiao Yandu went into seclusion, and she waited outside his door.
Before long, everyone in the cultivation world began to notice:
The great demon who once swore to flay Lord Xiao alive was now chasing him all over the mountain.
Everyone gasped. “She’s madly in love with him!”
Yin Kuaixue roared, “Bullshit! I’m just trying to stay alive!”
But as one old case after another came to light, the truth she had believed in for fourteen years began to crumble, piece by piece.
She had thought she was a victim of a conspiracy, only to discover that the spiritual power she had absorbed really had come at the cost of her clansmen’s lives.
She had thought the people she protected were innocent, only to discover that one of them had personally pushed her into the abyss.
The person who fired the demon-slaying arrow fourteen years ago had kept vigil over her for all that time, using his own soul as a lamp.
She had thought that arrow was an act of betrayal, never knowing that when it was loosed, someone wished even more than she did that she would die that day.
Only when all the fragments finally came together did she understand: no one in this world possesses the whole truth, and no one can stand apart from tragedy.
【Reborn after death】
【Sworn enemy keeps her alive】
【Everyone misunderstands】
【A morally complex truth】
Theme: She can only survive by staying close to him, and it is because he loves her that he learns how to truly “live.”
