Return to Dust

In her previous life, the heroine and the hero were fellow disciples. She sacrificed herself to help him achieve an immortal body. The hero wandered the mortal world for a thousand years before finding the heroine reincarnated. To give her a better life, he took up the post of chief elder in the foremost cultivation sect, accepted her as his disciple, and raised her with his own hands. As they lived together in ordinary companionship, the heroine fell in love with him. The hero had feelings for her from the start, but neither knew how the other felt, and both were afraid to speak their hearts. At last, the hero took the first step, and they accepted one another's feelings and resolved to live in seclusion together. Unexpectedly, a war between gods and demons broke out. The hero's identity gradually came to light, and in the end he was forced to return to his divine form to protect the Celestial Clan. The heroine knew nothing of this. She suddenly received a farewell letter from him and rushed to the Celestial Clan to find him, only to be sealed away for hundreds of thousands of years as a traitor. Three hundred thousand years later, she was saved by the Princess of Qingqiu through a twist of fate. She set out to find the hero, never imagining that he had become the Celestial Clan's lofty and revered deity. Forced to return to his position after undergoing a tribulation, the hero lost his seven emotions and six desires. Though his memories remained, he felt nothing for the heroine, and only a sense of duty was left. With no hope, the heroine did everything she could to keep him safe from harm, but ultimately her soul was destroyed completely. She returned to her true form and inherited the Heavenly Dao, fulfilling its duties. The heroine's death restored the hero's seven emotions and six desires, leaving him in unbearable anguish. Yet their love moved the heavens, broke through the hidden rules of their families, and finally allowed the two to continue their bond of love.
