In his previous life, Qin Fan was branded a good-for-nothing and reviled by everyone until the day he died. Now he has been reborn.
At seventeen, his innate abilities have only just awakened, his divine transformation and artifact refining are still at the beginner level, his Celestial Fox divine pet is still just a pearl, and his forbidden ghost-controlling art must never be discovered...
At the time, the eldest young master of the Qin family, who ranked lower than even a servant, was being forced by his own father to marry an old man. With no other choice, he sought out Helian Yuan, the "Demon God" he'd met only once in his previous life.
Helian Yuan was invincible, with fire abilities beyond measure, and was the most outstanding heir to the top ability-user family, the Helian family.
In this apocalypse, everyone feared Helian Yuan and kept their distance. Qin Fan approached him and spoke calmly amid the blazing fire that seemed to scorch the heavens: "Lord Helian, help me escape the Qin family, and I'll help you control your out-of-control abilities."
This is how people later told the story:
On the day the Helian family came to propose marriage, they clashed with the powerful Fang family, who had arrived for the same purpose. Helian Yuan appeared in person and carried Qin Fan away right then and there.
That good-for-nothing Qin Fan not only survived in the hands of the rampaging Helian Yuan, but the two became inseparable, utterly devoted to each other.
Later, the good-for-nothing Qin Fan transformed completely. He became not only the most precious person in the heart of the new Helian family head, but also his "Balancer," standing at his side.
When the Balancer appears, all ability-users must rein in their powers...
