Ji Ling married an unclaimed sword spirit, and the two kept each other company for ten years amid the chaos of war.
Those were the most peaceful and happiest ten years of her life.
She thought things would stay that way forever. But on a spring night in the tenth year, Ji Ling's husband vanished without a trace.
To find him, she struggled up to the Ninth Heaven in her mortal body, leaving a trail of blood across the steps behind her.
But when she looked up, she saw her husband sitting alone on a high platform, watching her with cold eyes.
They said he was going to marry another goddess. It turned out he was a revered divine lord, and those ten years among mortals had been nothing but a disgrace to him, a mere drop in the ocean of his long life.
As she died, all Ji Ling could see were his cold eyes, chilling her to the bone.
When she opened her eyes again, she had returned to three hundred years earlier.
Back then, he was still an insignificant mortal, lowly and humble.
As a mortal, he laid his sincere heart before Ji Ling. She smiled, then crushed and trampled it underfoot, just as he had done to her back then.
The husband-chasing crematorium trope / melodramatic story / the male lead is the "scumbag" from the blurb / misunderstandings / you kill me, I kill you / entangled for lifetimes without end / love each other even in death /
