Synopsis

Ying Huai, a once-celebrated singer with congenital heart disease, was betrayed by a junior colleague, leading to his mysterious death after being vilified online. Reborn during his peak of infamy, he sets out to clear his name and reclaim his life.

In his new timeline, Ying Huai's encounters with Lu Jing, Xin Wan, and Liang Shenning reveal a world where his former detractors now rally to his side. When he collapses on a variety show, his teammates swiftly expose the lies that destroyed him.

Meanwhile, Yan Shu, the prodigious yet reckless eldest disciple of Xiaochunjin Sect, awakens as a frail amnesiac after a magical catastrophe. His former rival Xie Jingpo, now sect leader, finds himself entangled in a strange bond with the man who once nearly destroyed their world.

This dual narrative explores themes of redemption, hidden truths, and the fragile line between love and obligation in both entertainment and cultivation worlds.

I keep a glossary for every series I touch because nothing drives me crazier than a name that changes spelling mid-book. Based in Penang, translating most evenings after work. I check things three times — sorry not sorry.
