Are you afraid of death? For Jie Fu Lian, who had already come to terms with his death, the thought of being alive was scarier. Although his death was quite tragic, he still lived a fulfilling life. He had done everything that he had wanted to do and he had achieved everything that he had strived for. Even as he died, he only had a single regret. He regretted the fact that he couldn't thank Hua Tianshu, an enemy who had stood up for him till the end. His death was quite painful but he wasn't unhappy with it. However, it should have ended right there. Why the hell was he now possessing the body of a tyrannical demon king?! The heavens above were certainly playing with him and laughing at his misfortune! As if possessing the body of his enemy wasn't enough, out of all the people that he could run into, why did he have to run into Hua Tianshu?! Just when Jie Fu Lian thought his luck couldn't get any worse, Hua Tianshu just had to go and recognize him as well! "Is this what an ill-fated relationship means?" Jie Fu Lian's lips twitched. It was as if even death couldn't break the red strings that had tied the two of them together. "Why are you so nice to me?" “You wouldn’t believe me even if I told you the reason,” Hua Tianshu sighed. “You are falsely accusing me. I trust everything you tell me.” “I like you.” “I like you too, brother,” Jie Fu Lian beamed, however, this response only disappointed Hua Tianshu whose words had been misunderstood once again. “We are clearly not on the same page,” Hua Tianshu sighed as he turned around and left. Jie Fu Lian frowned as he tilted his head cluelessly. The new demon king is a thick-headed idiot who can’t even take a hint! Cover art by: Cherlyswan
A few days later, A child completely covered in ashes reached the doorstep of the HuiXue sect and this child was Mo Yang who had been working as an attended in the Yan Sect.
Mo Yang had a lot of injuries on his body and it was quite a shock that he was still alive despite all of that.
At first, Hua Tianshu was going to ruthlessly send the boy away, however, his eyes trailed down to what the child was holding and he gulped back down the harsh words that he was about to spout.
Even as the boy passed out from exhaustion, he tightly clutched onto the shiny dagger that he had used in order to stay alive.
As soon as Hua Tianshu saw the dagger, he could immediately tell that it was forged by Jie Fu Lian.
Hua Tianshu already knew who the boy was. After all, he had seen him twice before this. The first time was in the illusion dream where Mo Yang played a vital role in saving Jie Fu Lian from losing control over his demonic blood.
