I once thought I could be an eagle soaring freely,
but in the end, I was nothing more than a kite on someone else's string.
I once thought the truth I was pursuing was the truth,
but in the end, it was only what someone else wanted me to know.
The martial world and its bloodshed, divine weapons and deception: if we hadn't met through lies, would things have ended differently?
"My little Kite, it's been so long. How have you still made no progress? Honestly, I'm not unhappy to see you again."
"I can't say I'm happy about it."
"Ah Yuan, haven't you always wanted to kill me? Go on, stab a little farther. Just a little more, and your greatest wish will come true. What are you hesitating for? Do it!"
"Miss A Yuan, to be honest, when I first met you, I'd already picked out names for our children."
"A Yuan, if we return safely from this journey, let's get married. If we don't, Brother Zhou, please bury us together."
"All right. We'll share a bed in life and a grave in death. We'll be together, living or dead."

My other novel, "Seeking Buddha," is currently updating
A femme fatale × a cool, aloof Buddhist monk: whose inner demon will awaken, whose obsession will become a demon?
Before I met you, the world meant nothing to me. After I met you, the whole world became you.
When the young monk with the best chance of attaining enlightenment meets a ruthless, indiscriminate little demoness from Blood Moon Valley, whose heart will be thrown into chaos, and whose path will be disrupted?
In the first life, Xuan Kong watched Blood Moon die a tragic death, planting an inner demon in his heart. His obsession grew stronger, and he prayed before the Buddha for ten years. One day, he awoke from his dream and returned to the moment before tragedy struck.
That year, just before her death, Blood Moon looked at the young monk before her, his face stained with blood, and regretted dragging him into the secular world. So she tried with all her might to go back, hoping to let him fulfill his great path of saving all living beings.
The two keep being reborn at different points in time, caught in a repeating cycle. Which of them is keeping the other trapped?
I.
"Female benefactor, please stop."
"It's you! Why don't you teach me how to stop, Master?" Blood Moon reached out and stroked Xuan Kong's face.
"Please conduct yourself with propriety, benefactor. Amitabha." Xuan Kong's face revealed no joy or sorrow. He brushed Blood Moon's hand aside, lifted the injured person, and strode away through the air.
Blood Moon was left behind, stamping her feet.
II.
"Master Xuan Kong, are you really going to side with that demoness and make an enemy of the entire martial world?"
"I know only that all living beings are people, and Blood Moon is one of them. I will not yield." Nor can I. Xuan Kong leaned on his meditation staff, one hand raised before his chest, and answered with unwavering resolve.
Blood Moon watched him from behind, her heart a tangle of emotions.
III.
"Xuan Kong, will you leave the monastic life and marry me?" Blood Moon squatted beside him, resting her face in her hands as she asked.
"..."
"Hmph, I knew your heart belonged only to the Buddha." Blood Moon turned and ran.
Xuan Kong parted his lips, but in the end, he said nothing.
Xuan Kong knelt before the Buddha for seven days and seven nights.
On the seventh day, he took the prayer beads from his neck and respectfully and reverently placed them on the offering tray before the Buddha. He kowtowed three times, stood, and left the mountain without looking back.
This disciple is unworthy. I cannot see through this red-dust illusion. I only hope to seek enlightenment again in the next life.
Moon, I'm coming to marry you.
Theme: Even when everything around me is false, I'll part the clouds and see the light of day.
