Me, the Sledgehammer-Wielder, and the Spring God Share a Tomb

Violent-aesthetics swordsmith VS aloof, proud, sweet-and-sour god

Ling Yuan is the Spring God of the highest heavens, wielder of the power of wood among the five elements. To destroy his inner demon, he descended to the mortal world to endure the suffering of seven trials. When he awoke, he found himself buried in a coffin, with a young woman beside him who had been arranged as his ghost bride: alive and breathing, at that.

Lin Fan'er is a swordsmith from a distinguished family, determined to forge a sentient sword. But while fleeing an arranged marriage, she was short on money and needed a few silver coins to buy food. After a cup of tea, she woke up to find herself the ghost bride of a noble young man: an officially matched couple with a marriage contract, at that.

Bound by their “shared grave,” Ling Yuan stuck close to Lin Fan'er, curious to see what else this trial journey had in store.

Unexpectedly, as they traveled together, they uncovered the beginnings of a past-life connection and a bond in this life.

A lotus before the Buddha met the exalted Spring God. One glance, and she loved him for a thousand years.

But after descending to the mortal world, a debt of gratitude turned into this...

Lin Fan'er: Ever heard of the Crimson Pearl Immortal Herb and the Divine Attendant? That's the kind of thing Ling Yuan and I have going on. But this time, I won't repay him with tears. I'll smash his head in with a giant hammer!

Ling Yuan: I had no idea there were so many twists to my story. When I thought I was a god, I never imagined I'd actually be a demon. After accepting that I was a demon, that crazy Heavenly Dao forced me into a destiny of saving all living beings and loving the whole world.

Lin Fan'er: The Heavenly Dao is going to ask you to give up love and desire next. Will you do it?

Ling Yuan: All I can say is, fate is meant to be broken.
