Reborn to Bring Chaos to the World

She was once an immortal Golden Phoenix, but was forced to reincarnate. Holding a bowl of Meng Po’s soup, she lingered at the Bridge of Helplessness for a long time… afraid she would forget the one she loved. “When love runs deep, it is never forgotten.” Meng Po whispered, holding out a bowl of thick medicinal broth. After reincarnating, she had her life taken from her eight times. In his cruelty, he tore the tendons from the nine-tailed fox and skinned her, then cut open her belly and ripped out her heart. He had no idea that this would become the greatest heartbreak of all his lifetimes. Looking at the man in white who had saved her, she couldn’t remember who he was. She ignored his companionship, intent only on turning the world upside down to avenge the life he had taken. In her first life, she was Daji, the fox enchantress who brought ruin to a ruler. “This realm is mine, and I am yours.” The Shang king gazed tenderly at the woman nestled in his arms, his eyes shining with affection. Yet she fell in love with her enemy from a past life, Bi Gan in this one. Their longing for each other came to nothing; they could never be together. In her second life, she was the peerlessly beautiful Bao Si. In her third, her fourth, and then… He and the other man remained entangled with her through every life. Beneath the osmanthus tree in the moonlight, Chen and I sat in silence. Suddenly he spoke, and I turned to look at him. His long, silky hair softly veiled his profile; his proud brows were drawn together. Desperate, yet still clinging to hope, he asked me: “Hua Jing, when will I find a place in your heart?” I left the little town, a place of picturesque beauty, and held Bei Mo tightly in my arms, yet we could not stay together until old age. She wanted to throw the world into chaos, but in the end she could not escape love. She fell for the enemy from her past life and forgot the lover she had once cherished. Could his steadfast devotion win back the love she once felt for him? Could his willingness to give up everything in the world keep them together, life after life? Daji, Bao Si, Yang Yuhuan, May… Reincarnation after reincarnation, life after life: when will it all finally end? Do not mourn: the old moon has watched the waters of fate flow through countless cycles of reincarnation. Click here to see my other stories. The music was originally the Zhang Ruohan version of “Stay Together for Life.” It’s a lovely song.
