On the one hundred and first year of my loving Pei Jingyue, I finally married him.
The wedding of an immortal lord's daughter and a young immortal became the greatest celebration the immortal realm had seen in ten thousand years.
I gazed at my reflection in the mirror, joy in my eyes, clear and impossible to fake.
When the auspicious hour arrived, I hurried out the door. Suddenly, thunder roared across the sky. Pei Jingyue flew down and killed my father with a single sword strike.
His scorching blood splattered all over my red wedding veil.
I went mad with grief and was imprisoned in the palace.
I watched helplessly as Pei Jingyue brought the little fox demon out of the immortal prison, gave her an immortal root, helped her through her immortal tribulation, and married her in a grand procession dressed in a hundred miles of red.
On my wedding night, I destroyed my immortal root and summoned nine layers of thunder. In an act of mutual destruction, I burned Pei Jingyue and the little fox demon to death in the blazing red wedding hall.
This was the final gift I gave Pei Jingyue in return.

When I opened my eyes again, it was a hundred years earlier. Pei Jingyue and I were riding horses at the hunting grounds.
In my previous life, I accidentally shot a badly wounded young man at the hunting grounds. Seeing that he was barely breathing and close to death, I gave him an immortal pill and saved him.
Who knew that he would later stray down the wrong path, advance at an astonishing pace, and become the Ghost King feared by all?
Pei Jingyue scolded me for it: "Fool."
In this new life, I give the future Ghost King an immortal pill again. But this time, I also help him onto my horse.
At that moment, Pei Jingyue respectfully calls me "Princess Yizhi" and eagerly offers to hunt a thousand-year-old deer demon, grind its antlers, and make me a bracelet.
I ride away without looking at Pei Jingyue even once.
The future Ghost King leans against my shoulder, his fingertips tightening little by little around the hem of my clothes.
[Beautiful, strong, tragic, calculating Ghost King X Princess of the Immortal Realm who loves and hates without restraint]
Wang Nianzhou has spent his life walking alone, sinister and arrogant, defying all convention.

Yet no one knows why he suddenly vanished from the world.
No one saw how, on that day when flames blazed across the immortal realm, he fought his way into the sea of fire in the depths of hell, nor how he tightly embraced Princess Yizhi, who was laughing madly and weeping tears of blood amid the flames, hoping his own body could shield her from even a fraction of the agony of the spiritual fire.
