Wu Chu is a crow, one of the Phoenix Clan’s hidden guards, with the ability to sense death.
On her way to the human lands, she was ambushed by demons. When she woke, her life had somehow been bound to that of a human. Their fortunes were linked, and they shared the same fate in life and death.
If that were all, it might have been bearable. But she had a heart of gold, swallowing poisonous insects and walking into traps just to make her save strangers.
She was a vicious demon who killed without batting an eye. Wasn’t that obvious?
Trying to tame her? Dream on.
At the human border, a village was trapped by a demon formation, blocking their way. When Wu Chu turned around, Wen Jiyue was leaning back with a hand at her waist, pretending to be frail and on the verge of collapse.
Wu Chu: Save yourself.
Wen Jiyue: I’m too weak to harm a chicken. If you can bear to leave me, by all means.
Wu Chu cursed under her breath. Wu Chu sneered. Wu Chu saved her.
After Wu Chu pulled the blade from her shoulder and spat out a mouthful of black blood, she said firmly, “This is the last time.”
Wen Jiyue: “Oh, my great benefactor, you said that last time too. And the time before that, and the time before that...”
Wen Jiyue is a divine lord created by humanity. Her very existence is meant to bring about ascension and godhood, and to hold the demon race in check.
She has lived through this world hundreds and thousands of times, seeking her heart, pursuing the Dao, saving the world, and helping its people.
The road to immortality is long. Either the bones of all future generations cover the land, or she and her beloved are separated by life and death. She must find a way to save both.
So she takes her own life, starts over, takes her own life, starts over, takes her own life...
Wu Chu grips the dagger aimed at Wen Jiyue’s heart. “Wen Jiyue, I can sense death. Can’t we just stay apart?”
Wen Jiyue: “That’s the nine hundred and eighty-fifth time you’ve said that. My answer is still no.”
