[Infinite worlds / pseudo-quick transmigration / alternating worlds]
A powerful, steady Immortal Venerable gong who gets hopelessly love-struck later on
A stubborn, despicable, hypocritical demon shou who grows for love
Synopsis:
Imprisoned atop a mountain, Xie Wangqing has no freedom at all.
He is the son of the demon clan and hates constraints more than anything. Naturally, he can't stand it.
"Do people across the land know you spend every day fooling around with your own disciple?"
Faced with the accusations of his former lover, Ying Changting remains unmoved. He gently strokes the other's crimson lips, his gaze as tender as water. "What happens between us is none of the world's concern."
Xie Wangqing is dumbfounded.
"Don't think about running away, Wangqing... As long as you don't leave me, I'll give you everything you want."
Ying Changting looks up into his eyes and says softly, "You know... I would never lie to you."
Ying Changting is gentle and considerate, and exceptionally handsome. When those dark eyes gaze at someone, they always create the illusion that he cherishes them.
...In the end, he was the one who first gave in to temptation.
Xie Wangqing finally softens. Unable to help himself, he sighs and kisses Ying Changting's cool lips.
He embraces the certainty of death, so he fails to see the determination in Ying Changting's eyes.
Only when he wakes from a long sleep and learns of Ying Changting's death does he understand that Ying Changting truly hadn't lied to him.
