She is a peerless God of War whose name will go down in history, yet also a femme fatale reviled by all. She is a refined and talented scholar, yet also a legendary thief who roams the martial world.
She has lived through a thousand cycles of reincarnation.
Why practice martial arts? Her inner strength has been at its peak for thousands of years.
Why fight for power in the palace? She can win an emperor's heart without lifting a finger.
No secret behind any strange case in the martial world can escape her notice. She can recite a suspect's family history going back eighteen generations, so solving cases is effortless.
Xuan Yuan Wuyi dons a brand-new secret identity, commands a private fortune that rivals the wealth of a nation, and surrounds herself with handsome men. She plucks flowers with her slender fingers, smiles sweetly, and rides across the world, living freely and joyfully.
But is her eyesight failing her? Otherwise, how could she be seeing her old nemesis from thousands of years ago?
Dressed in a blue robe, he stands tall, his handsome face unchanged. He is still exactly the man she remembers and can't stand.
"Wuyi."
His gaze burns as he walks steadily toward her.
"Are you happy, living without me by your side?"

Three thousand years ago, amid the collapse of heaven and earth, he saved a girl from the mortal realm.
She was a weapon he had forged with his own hands, and the tenderest object of his affection.
Watching the woman's carefree, willful figure, he smiled in acceptance and walked toward her.
So be it. He could accompany her on the road to the underworld, after all.

Reader's Guide:
1. A strong 1v1 pairing: master and disciple, former enemies. The heroine is bold and assertive; the hero is reserved and cunning. During her cycles of reincarnation, she has never been intimate with anyone else, so readers who prefer chaste romances are welcome.
2. To clarify the premise: time passes normally. Only the heroine repeatedly dies and comes back to life, returning each time to the physical state she was in at fifteen while retaining her memories. She lives under different identities to conceal her secret. In essence, she is immortal; this is not quick transmigration. Chronologically, this story takes place after You Are My Dearest and I Love You Like Life, in the same world.
Theme: The universe turns in cycles, but true love never dies.
