Duan Jingchen came to the human world for only two reasons.
First, to find the idiot who shot him dead on the banks of the River of Forgetfulness.
Second, to find the beloved wife from his past life whom he had never met.
But the more he investigated and searched, the worse things seemed.
Why was the suspect a handsome, charming man?
And why was his wife also a handsome, charming man!?
That's right, they were the same person.
Later, Duan Jingchen discovered that the so-called “past life” was actually another world, and that his rebirth was an extreme journey across worlds to win back his beloved.
Duan Jingchen had finally found his love, but to return to his true home, he had no choice but to become a heartless cad who abandoned him after seducing him: while the other man slept, Duan Jingchen stole his powers and possessions.
Even so, that man still wanted to marry him.
But on their wedding day, Duan Jingchen vanished without a trace.
Everyone cursed him as a two-faced, despicable villain.
Duan Jingchen thought the man must hate and despise him by now.
Then they reunited. Duan Jingchen pointed his sword at the other's heart.
The man had ascended to become a revered immortal, unmatched in the world, yet he walked toward Duan Jingchen step by step, letting the blade pierce his chest.
“I trust you had your reasons.”
【A few things to know】
① One-on-one from start to finish, with mutual devotion. Duan has no memories at first and mistakenly thinks he has been reborn after transmigrating. There is no betrayal or suspicion in their relationship, so no frustrating misunderstandings. Both of them speak their minds. No angst; I consider this a sweet romance. But I can't promise the plot won't get intense. The beautiful, strong, tragic character archetype is buried deep in the author's bones, and an adventurous spirit never dies.
② This can be read on its own with no prior knowledge. My other novel, Farewell Winds, is a modern fantasy story set in the same universe with the same main characters.
Coming next
《The General Is Consumed by His Inner Demon》
The emperor of Dayu, Nan Geng, died a sudden and gruesome death, only to become a fragile evil spirit. He couldn't lift a finger, let alone fight, and the whole city was after him.
Nan Geng hurried to seek out his former subordinate and cling to him for protection.
As it turned out, his former subordinate had fallen on hard times over the years. He had lost his official position and grown ever stranger. When they reunited, the living and the dead alike, he wasn't shocked or surprised. He seemed a little… perverted.
“You're not allowed to speak.”
Nan Geng fell silent.
“Run again and I'll break your legs. Believe me?”
Nan Geng pulled his legs in.
“I miss you. When are you coming back?”
Nan Geng, who was standing right in front of Sui Yi, had nothing to say.
If I'd known it would be like this, I should've stayed buried in the ground!!!
Theme: Perseverance is always rewarded in the end.
