[A powerful male lead, a powerful female lead, and powerful supporting characters! Together, they are an unstoppable force! Watch as the heroine rises step by step to the pinnacle of the world, toys with the world in the palm of her hand, and uses her supernatural ghost eyes to carve out a realm of her own!]
“Lichen, if I could live it all over again, I think I would make sure to meet you before she did.” Then a figure dressed in white plummeted from high above. The woman’s half-closed eyes shed the only tear she would ever cry.
The man called Lichen was overcome with pain. His red robes fluttered in the wind as he watched the woman slowly fall before him, her life given in exchange for the revival of all things.
“K kui, if bringing all things back to life means your life will end, then what use is this world to me?” the man cried out in sudden fury. Yet he could do nothing but watch as the woman gradually disappeared before his eyes.
“Have you found a way?” the man asked excitedly.
“Yes, but it will require your body.”
The man fell silent for a moment, then said, “It’s all right. If it can save her, I’m willing, even if all I have left is a wisp of nether soul.”
“Good. Let’s begin. It may hurt a little, and from now on, unless you find a suitable body, you’ll have to remain a nether soul.”
The man nodded without hesitation. “Even if she wakes with no memories, even if she’s only a puppet, I just want her to live.”
“Very well. I promise.”
“I’m sorry! Please spare me!” the man begged in terror, facing the girl with the eerie smile.
The girl curled her lips into a smile. “Forgiving you? That’s God’s job. My job is to send you to meet Him!” With that, countless wailing vengeful spirits surged toward the man.
Before long, all that remained of him was a skeleton.
From the shadows, a woman screamed and charged at the girl in a fury, raising her hand to slap her across the face.
“I’ll kill you, you bitch! You monster!”
The girl merely smiled faintly. “I never said I was human. You were the ones who went too far! So you don’t need to be alive anymore, either!” With a wave of her hand, the woman turned into a pool of blood.
Now that Mu Kui has lost her memories and Yao Lichen has become a wisp of nether soul, will they overcome all their trials and finally meet again?
In a nutshell, it’s a love story between a puppet and a ghost.
