[Two male leads + star-crossed love + cultivation + transmigration + faked death + laugh-out-loud comedy + happy ending]
Xie Shuyu feels that fate has played the most absurd joke on him for his entire life.
For example, just as the promotion and raise his boss had promised were about to come through, with his salary finally set to increase by a thousand the very next day, he dies suddenly from working overtime and transmigrates into this novel.
The good news is that he has been bound to a System, and his mission is to help the male lead, Mo Qiao, become the Demon Venerable.
The bad news is that he is a crane demon, while the male lead is human!
And before he can even think of a solution, he somehow becomes the male lead's sworn enemy, and then...
He somehow becomes the Demon Venerable instead.
That's not all. The male lead, Mo Qiao, also somehow dies right in front of him.
So how on earth did the male lead's plotline somehow end up being handed to him?
Whatever. Since the role has fallen to him, he'll do a good job managing the demon realm.
Wait! Why does being the Demon Venerable still mean working overtime?
Xie Shuyu can only sigh and rub his forehead at his fate as a top-tier corporate workhorse.
And then, just as he's about to make a clean break with the past and forget Mo Qiao for good, guess what happens?!
Mo Qiao, who faked his death and lost his memory, appears right in front of him!!!
He thought he'd seen the face of an old friend, only to discover that the old friend never died.
Of course, fate's biggest joke is that...
He's the Demon Venerable. He's the one consumed by hatred. He's the one dressed in a dashing black outfit. He's the one resenting Mo Qiao for faking his death and leaving him alone in this vast world...
So why is he also the one being kissed with his chin held tight?
Theme: 1. A sea of hatred and love, with sea and sky blending into one. 2. What determines whether someone is truly good or evil is their experiences, not their nature. It isn't about making them incapable of evil thoughts, but about ensuring that even when they know wrongdoing would benefit them, they still choose what is right out of a sense of justice.
