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
Jie Fu Lian's eyebrows creased together as he heard this and he suddenly remembered the day when he had been driven insane by anger when he saw Hua Tianshu's heavily injured body.
He recalled the words spoken by Tail that day: Young Master, you are a human, not a demon. Always remember that.
If Tail hadn't stopped him that day, he would have certainly killed everyone.
"They aren't connected..." Hua Tianshu suddenly muttered, realizing something.
Jie Fu Lian looked at the man with a small frown as he asked, "What?"
"The master of curses and Heaven's eye..." Hua Tianshu replied as he lifted his head to look at Jie Fu Lian with his eyes wide open in shock, "They aren't accomplices."
"Huh?"
"That's why he laughed!" Hua Tianshu exclaimed, slowly putting the pieces together, "He laughed because he had no connection with the master of curses! In fact, I think he wants us to catch the master of curses!"
