A love story hidden in the depths of despair and forsaken memories… Lai Mingjie is a hot and well-sought bachelor in the city, the sole heir of one of the country's most powerful and influential men. However, he has a secret: he used to be the most prolific demon king in history! In his plight of trying to end his suffering, he runs into the amnesiac Xu Rouguang. 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?

Sovereign Cinders!
Xu Jiguang's eyes widened in rage as he heard that name being uttered by Lai Mingjie... and even coupling it with 'he' and 'dog'. The audacity of Nuwa's pet to be calling him someone else's dog! However, it was true.
The only difference was that Emodao accepted being Nuwa's pet while Xu Jiguang was subdued against his will.
Because of this, the primal demon flared in fury. The gusts hitting the two grew fiercer and darker as if merging with abyssal energy that the primal demon could draw from his body. Even if the abyssal prison was already destroyed, the amount of abyssal energy that they amassed all those centuries was still inside their very bodies. Unlike Xu Rouguang's body, theirs were the real originals so they could cultivate it inside them.
