Secret History of the King of Hell

In ancient times, a race of merfolk wandered beyond the Five Realms. They lived in water like fish and never ceased weaving. Their tears became pearls, and their voices could bewitch anyone who heard them.

Desperately seeking a chance to survive after the Soul-Stealing Hairpin gravely wounded him, Mei went to ask the merfolk for a pearl to heal his injuries.

But who could have imagined that he would meet Yun Yan, a blind merfolk?

Yun Yan had never been tainted by the ways of the world. He was innocent and kind, nothing like Mei.

Mei told him he was Yun Yan's tear demon, and Yun Yan believed him.

Mei said he could stay by Yun Yan's side forever, and Yun Yan believed him too.

Mei said he would take Yun Yan to taste every flavor the world had to offer, and Yun Yan still believed him...

In the end, Yun Yan's innocence melted Mei's heart.

His wounds were not yet healed, and he had lost his heart as well.

He truly regretted it. He regretted that he had not fought harder to live a few more days, even one more day would have been enough.

He wanted to become Yun Yan's eyes, so his Yun Yan could see a glimmer of light in the world.
