This man cannot remember anything else about his life... but that he loves Lai Mingjie. Who would have thought that this man is actually the demon king's wife... and executioner?! With the promises of freedom and a new life together, the two of them works on recovering whatever they can to rebuild the destiny that they have placed onto themselves—and what they have shattered all the same. How strong can they be in their crossed paths filled with pain, death, and separation… now that they are together again?

It was like a very wild and painful nightmare. Xu Rouguang felt that his world was collapsing either way things had happened. Even it was a hallucination, he didn't know if he was willing to open the gate using his divine core but escape as Lai Mingjie took on the blood chains.
Was it more painful to be killed in an eternal sleep or to realize that his love decided to take his place at the last minute?
When his eyes felt like he could open them, Xu Rouguang wasn't prepared to see the light. He felt like his entire body was jolted that it had been torn into pieces and joined yet again. However, it wasn't just a feeling.
He knew it wasn't just a feeling.
When Youming put his body together almost eight years ago, he had felt this so much pain. He even struggled to remember his name and who he really was while waiting in the blood of mortals. This pulsating feeling was too much for his memory to forget.
