Summary
After Xie Lian’s disastrous 2nd ascension, ruinous bastard Jun Wu locks him in the Palace of Divine Might. Rumours spread about what Jun Wu does to the Flower Crowned Martial God—rumours spread that Jun Wu is actually Bai Wuxiang.
Banished once more, with six cursed shackles, Xie Lian abruptly changes his cultivation path so nothing more can be taken from him. He hides. He evades. He becomes a shadow. Jun Wu spends 800 years searching, searching, searching, but Xie Lian has vanished without a trace.
Now, a group of Heavenly Officials turns to the Crimson Rain Sought Flower for aid in destroying the prince's cursed shackles. But how can Xie Lian concentrate on defeating Jun Wu with the gaze of the beautiful Ghost King carefully pinning him down?
_______
Or: Xie Lian has six cursed shackles, and a small team of heavenly officials enlist Hua Cheng to save him from obsessed Jun Wu, as one-by-one Xie Lian's deepest traumas are unearthed.

Summary
When it comes to something like this, there are a few important steps:
First, Xie Lian makes sure that his husband is busy. Something like that makes it sound so terrible, but it’s not—it’s really not! It’s just that Hua Cheng can be overprotective, and if he saw this he would react poorly. Xie Lian would rather spare him that.
Second, Xie Lian puts Ruoye away. The poor thing never wants to go. He has to tie it somewhere safe and placate it with gentle touches and soothing words. Even so, it still lashes its ends and strains after him until he leaves the room. It will cling too tightly when he returns.
Third, Xie Lian goes somewhere quiet and familiar. It can be the armory, or their private baths, or even the shrine near Puqi Village. It is never their bedroom. It is never their cottage.
Fourth, Xie Lian draws his sword.
Fifthly, finally, Xie Lian takes a deep breath, closes his eyes, and carves his own skin open.

Summary
Xie Lian isn’t particularly worried about the progress of his relationship with Hua Cheng. After all, Hua Cheng seems to be fine with just kissing and hugging for now; wouldn't it be weird to ask for something else? Maybe one day they’d do more, when Xie Lian is ready. He wants to be ready.
Then, Xie Lian has a nightmare.

Summary
“I think I’m … going off,” I say, and my voice is barely audible. I didn’t know. I had no idea that’s what was happening, not until I said it aloud. But I think I’ve been going off in gruesome slow motion for the past two years.
