Blurb
As the world's spiritual energy faded, cultivation declined, and no matter how powerful the gods, demons, or monsters were, they gradually perished under the will of Heaven.
Bai Jiu was the last nine-tailed spirit fox of Qingqiu. During the cataclysm, he accidentally entered a secret realm, where he was cut off from the will of Heaven. He escaped the calamity, but could no longer leave.
Trapped in the secret realm, he was forced to fall into a deep sleep, until one day he was suddenly thrown out.
He looked up at the sky. The will of Heaven was gone? To his left, endless ruins of cities. To his right, endless desolation and misery. Ahead, something ugly and crooked... a human??
Bai Jiu was full of questions. What happened to this world? Had humans all become this ugly? And they were filthy! They stank!
The beautiful, fastidious fox immortal made several instant-transmission jumps to get as far away as possible.
Lu Xingyun was reborn in the second year after he had been betrayed by his subordinates, friends, and lover and turned into a zombie. In his previous life, those people used his research in the third year to kill him, just after he had broken through to become a Zombie King, while he was still unconscious and weak.
In this life, he had all the strength he possessed in his previous one. He would not have to struggle so hard to rise again. Not one of them would get away. Every last person would pay for what they had done!
As for the zombie drug that had caught him off guard, well, it only worked on low-level zombies. It was not even as potent as his own zombie toxin.
But this pretty, clean, delicate (lazy) person in front of him seemed rather amusing. He might as well keep him around for entertainment.
(Lu Xingyun) The big shot declared: Now that I have my strength back, I don't need to work hard. It's kind of boring.
Bai Jiu's eyes lit up when he saw Lu Xingyun. At last, there was something in this world that could cleanse his eyes. Humans were so weak. He'd keep this one around. From now on, I'll protect you.
At first
Bai Jiu: I'll take care of you.
Lu Xingyun: I'll take care of you.
Later
Bai Jiu/Lu Xingyun: What on earth are you?!
Still a top, a sweet romance, set in the apocalypse.
The last nine-tailed spirit fox in the world, top x a reborn, revenge-seeking, face-slapping Zombie King, bottom.
Extra scene: P.S. The will of Heaven has something to say: Modern humans are terrifying. I'm suffocating. I can't live in this place anymore. But before I leave, I'll make them suffer a little! Hmph!
The great cultivators who were forced to perish, though they could fly and burrow underground: ...You're leaving just like that? I think I can still survive!!!
