Blurb One:
At the banks of the Bridge of Helplessness, the Netherworld Emperor watched Divine Lord Jing Heng down bowl after bowl of Meng Po's soup as casually as if he were drinking wine. "Suppose that after you enter the mortal world, you discover that the person you love looks like me. What will you do then?"
"Is this world out to get me?"
Years later, Jing Heng draped his torn clothes over himself and looked at the bewitchingly handsome face before him, so like the Netherworld Emperor's. He thought, This damn world really is out to get me!
There's no saving it. Just destroy it!
Blurb Two:
Divine Lord Jing Heng had to undergo a mortal trial and experience all eight forms of human suffering before he could achieve fulfillment.
Naturally lazy and unwilling to suffer, he went to the Celestial Emperor. "Is there a way to get through my trial quickly?"
The Celestial Emperor answered briefly: "Undergo a love trial."
"You got it!" Divine Lord Jing Heng scampered off.
To make sure he passed his trial properly, he even went to Meng Po for some soup.
But even after downing several large bowls, the soup was completely useless. He descended to the mortal world with all his memories intact.
Not only did he keep his memories, he also got entangled with the reincarnation of that damned Netherworld Emperor.
Jing Heng: I really want to die all over again~
--
The Netherworld Emperor had guarded the netherworld for over a thousand years, bored to tears by the ghosts howling every day.
One day, he heard that the little immortal who was always giving him trouble was going to descend to the mortal world for a love trial.
A love trial... A love trial sounds great!
The Netherworld Emperor decided to go play along. With a change of appearance, he became the love trial of that chattering little immortal.
Only, this love trial wasn't going according to plan.
Wasn't it supposed to be a tragic romance? Why was this little thing looking at him so strangely?
Lazy bottom, a little immortal who wants to pass his trial and ascend to godhood but is afraid of hardship, Jing Heng (Chu Anran)
Scheming, clingy top, the Netherworld Emperor Hanhai (Dongfang Bai), decisive and ridiculously powerful, yet always wanting to be held
P.S. This story features martial world rivalries and everyday romance.
It mainly follows the various experiences of descending to the mortal world to undergo a trial.
Sweet and lighthearted, no angst, monogamous happy ending.
