Summary
Shao Hongning faked her death to hunt the Heavenly Demon’s scattered seeds. Three hundred lonely years later, the last one leads her home—and straight to the gentle junior brother she left behind. Except Chu Wuji is now a ruthless sect leader, and his first order is to have her killed. Rumor says his beloved partner died in the battle that supposedly claimed Hongning. As she bluffs her way past his sword and into the nightmares haunting him, old promises begin to unravel. She came back to finish a battle. Understanding what her absence has done to him may be harder.
