After the mysterious death of the bottom’s eighteenth cultivation partner, rumors about him spread far and wide, sweeping across the entire Immortal Realm.
People said he was fated to bring death to his husbands, and that anyone who pursued him for his face alone met a violent end.
The rumors grew louder with each passing day, but the bottom never came forward to explain. He continued to wander between the realms of immortals and demons, carrying his sword alone.
Many years later, everyone suddenly realized that the bottom had not appeared in a long time.
In his place stood a small tombstone, quiet and still at the boundary between the two realms.

The bottom had faked his death.
He changed his face and wandered aimlessly through the human world. He listened to storytellers in inns, watched street vendors’ stalls for a while, and, late at night, casually slaughtered any demons that crossed his path.
Over the long years, he occasionally traveled with someone.
That person looked utterly ordinary, but spoke gently and always knew how to conduct himself. The bottom shared his ideals and spirit, and they got along quite well.
Until one day, a demon trembled before the person beside him, fell to its knees, and reported every detail of what was happening in the Demon Realm.
Looks like I’ve got a job.
The bottom thought calmly.

The assassination failed, and the bottom was pinned to the ground. Staring up at the ceiling beams, he hoped his eighteen former husbands had already been reincarnated through the six realms, so there would be fewer enemies waiting to hunt him down in the underworld.
To his surprise, what touched his neck was not a sharp sword tip, but a pair of cold hands.
The movements were gentle as they slowly wiped the blood from his face.
“...It’s been a long time.” The top stared motionlessly at the person before him, then said hoarsely after a long pause.

I know your immortal bones feel neither cold nor heat. A thousand years apart feel no longer than a night and a day when we meet again.
