Qin Lang is the chief disciple of the foremost sword sect in the immortal cultivation world, a swordsmanship prodigy. He began cultivating qi at five, built his foundation at ten, and reached the peak of the Golden Core stage at twenty. All his life, people have looked up to him, yet deep down he has always felt that he was chasing after something.
Three thousand years into the cultivation world's history, the seal on the Demon Realm breaks. Tens of thousands of great demons sweep across the sky. Wherever their evil aura burns, mortals fall, spirit herbs wither, and the people of the Nine Continents suffer catastrophe. At last, Qin Lang understands what he has been chasing.
Qin Lang: "..."
What kind of sick joke is this?
The sword sect's senior disciple slays the evil demons and uses his own body to mend the seal. The demons are imprisoned in the Demon Realm once more, and the cultivation world is assured of several thousand years of peace. He sacrifices himself for the greater good, and his name is destined to be praised and remembered by the righteous.
But Qin Lang, bright as the moon between the clouds and untouched by worldly concerns, is not nearly so selfless. In his final moments, he thinks only of this: his partner has a furnace constitution and cannot cultivate. He's so delicate. What will he do?
When he wakes, his wife has slaughtered her way through the cultivation world.
Qin Lang: ??? Something must be wrong.
Lan Shu: I want every vile person to pay for their ambition. I want the people to submit and know who saved them. I want you to ascend to immortality with me, and stay with me for all eternity.

A friendly note:
1. The blurb is from the gong's perspective, while the story itself is from the shou's perspective. The shou is reborn and has the highest combat power.
2. The gong was the previous strongest. He was beautiful, powerful, and tragic, and sacrificed himself for all living beings. The main story is what happens after the original plot ends, when the shou rewrites it.
3. The protagonists' feelings are mutual, with no third party.
Theme: Though the world may change beyond recognition, I will still love you.
