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?

Five years... both Heaven and the Mortal Realm had been quiet for five years. Mostly everyone had reverted to their normal lives until the news of finding a primal demon lurking in a secluded mountain in Heaven spread all across the land. Since the location was close to the Divine Dragon Mountain, Prince Sky and Sovereign Lotus decided to move their children to the mortal realm without a noise. However, they remained in the Divine Dragon Mountain to fight off whatever came their way.
While that wasn't Xu Rouguang and Lai Mingjie's problem at the moment, the matter wouldn't stay up there without the mortal realm receiving its own scoop of action. Right now, Xu Rouguang was placed in the reserve corps, only activated in the direst needs. For the past five years, he had never been called even once.
