Dark Salvation

Hell is empty and all the devils are here. Shakespeare – [The Tempest] As a form of punishment for mistakenly killing an innocent civilian, Song Zhuyu, a priest and part-time exorcist, found himself exiled to the distant shores of Shenci Island, hundreds of miles away from his hometown and the only city he had ever known his whole life. However, unbeknownst to anyone, he harbored a secret agenda— to hunt down the culprit who had turned his life upside down. Fully prepared for meeting danger at every turn, what he encountered instead was a beautiful, serene island, albeit with two strange ironclad rules: First, do not climb the hill after 1 AM. Second, do not interact with Rui Ye. On the first night of his stay, Song Zhuyu broke two of the taboos, only to discover that the infamous Rui Ye was nothing like he had expected. “I am cursed,” the blind, beautiful man told him with a wistful smile. “If you associate yourself with me, the curse will haunt you too.” In response, Song Zhuyu’s lips hooked into a careless smile, “I don’t think you have to worry about that. I, myself, am cursed as well. What’s the big deal about adding another one?” But as inexplicable deaths began to plague the island, Song Zhuyu realized that the island, including the helpless and soft-hearted Rui Ye he had come to know, held a far darker secret than he could've ever imagined. In a race against time, he must navigate the treacherous waters of deceit and betrayal to unravel the island’s sinister truth and achieve his goal before it's too late. *** Pretty, flirtatious yet heartless priest gong x blind, mysterious and cursed shou Additional tags: gong/seme/top protagonist, action, mystery, suspense, horror, psychological, thriller, dark elements, angel and demons, slow romance, murder, crime, beautiful protagonist, older love interest, 1 vs 1, dubcon, supernatural creatures, exorcism, tragedy, past plays a big part Find me on: Instagram: delanasiwarka Discord server: bit.ly/delanadiscord

cw: mention of gangrape and incest

***

"Mr. Song, when you talk about marriage, it's supposed to be an intimate connection between two people, right?" She asked, leaving Song Zhuyu a bit confused as to where this was heading.

"Of course…?" he replied with uncertainty. 

Sure, polygamous relationships existed, but he reckoned they had become extremely rare in this day and age where everything was governed by strict legal regulations. This was no longer the era where men could take multiple wives or concubines just to have as many offspring as they physically could. Now, many couples even found it a hassle to have children, preferring to spend lives only with the two of them alone. 

But why would Tan Jiahu ask something like that? Could it be…

A speculation arose in Song Zhuyu's mind, only to be shattered in the next moment by Tan Jiahu's words. It suddenly dawned on Father Song that perhaps he had been too innocent for this world.
