Synopsis
Shen Yan found the formation by the window on the third floor of the library. Luo Qi hadn't come yet at that time, and the sunlight passed through her empty seat and fell on the last stroke he made with cinnabar - that was the sacrificial formation, which requires the painter to spend thousands of years of cultivation and give a mortal a limitless life span. He thought it was well hidden. Until Luo Yao slapped the draft paper full of formation patterns in front of him, her knuckles turning white from the force: "Do you think you can get her back from 'that thing' with this?" Luo Yao's tiger teeth bit her lower lip, blood dripped on the paper, and half of the formation diagram was burned instantly: "Shen Yan, you are going to lose yourself, how can you protect her?" When Luo Qi discovered it, the formation was already on its seventh day. She rushed into the library and saw Shen Yan's translucent body dissipating little by little in the dust in the ancient books section. He still smiled and said as gently as he usually did when lecturing her: "Don't be afraid, you don't have to stand in front of me this time." There was a power outage throughout the school that day, and only the library was lit with a faint blue light. Luo Qi hugged his gradually cold body and heard him say in his last heartbeat: "It turns out that the most painful thing in the world... Is not the failure to overcome the tribulation, but the lack of time to tell you -" "I never drew formations to make you immortal." "I want you to grow up safely even if you forget me every morning without me." Later Luo Yao took Luo Qi away. It is said that a red flower will bloom every spring at the old library site a hundred years from now. The lines on the petals are very much like the unfinished formation on the draft paper back then. [Character Profile] Shen Yan (Chen Yan): A ten thousand-year-old monk who was once the eye of the Heavenly Dao Formation. The previous life was shattered by Luo Qi, and this life was divided into "order" and "humanity". He loved her to the core, but he had to kill her to prove his truth. Luo Qi: A girl without a past, a loophole in reincarnation. He looks weak, but in fact he has the ruthlessness to tear his fate apart. She didn't want to be a protected sacrifice, she just wanted to be a living person beside him. Luo Yao: Luo Qi's sister, half-demon. She was Luo Qi's strongest shield and the most sober bystander. She tried her best to bring these lunatics back to the world. Gu Yan: President of the student union, the reincarnation of the sword cultivator. The defender of order, but in the face of the truth, he chose to betray heaven and protect the girl who should not exist. Su Wan & Xuan Jizi: The ghostly school doctor and the crazy old Taoist. They are witnesses of history and the only "normal people" in this farce. Intention: Not all love can end well, and some guardianship is destined to be a loneliness that cannot be turned back.
