Ordered into a political marriage neither of them wants, Jiang Yuan—a deadly assassin from Tai Xuan Tower—and Shao Yue, the holy maiden of the Jiu Xuan Sect, enter a union built on pure “mutual benefit.” On their wedding night, the truth detonates: both attempt an assassination at the same time—and both survive, revealing they are immortal. What should be a blood-soaked ending becomes the start of a far more dangerous game.
Each sect guards a secret treasure the other needs: the Demon-Suppressing Bell and the Demon-Controlling Bell. To steal them, Jiang Yuan and Shao Yue shift from open enemies into a staged couple, maintaining a flawless façade while secretly testing, manipulating, and outsmarting each other. In a cultivation world obsessed with status and surveillance, one wrong move could expose their lies and trigger sect war.
But the greatest secret is not the bells. Unknown to both, the other is an alien survivor—a lone remnant of a civilization destroyed by the Void. As clues surface, the “treasures” reveal their true origin: relics transformed from a lost spaceship, tying their fates to a cosmic disaster bigger than any sect conflict.
Forced into a fragile alliance, the pair must navigate suspicion, romance-laced rivalry, and lethal politics—while searching for the relics and a path to defeat the Void. A thrilling blend of sci-fi cultivation, intrigue, and high-stakes survival.
