Fate Chooses You

Branded with the fate of bringing misfortune to her husband, Xin Mei longs to find a worthy partner before turning sixteen. A twist of fate leads her to break the formation guarding the imperial tomb and ends up imprisoned by Lu Qianqiao, the valiant general tasked with its protection. As she matches wits with Lu Qianqiao, Xin Mei realizes he's the one she's been searching for. Fierce and determined, she throws herself into the pursuit of his heart. But Lu Qianqiao is no ordinary man - he is a descendant of the war demons, and is on the brink of a deadly transformation. Though he loves her deeply, Lu Qianqiao distances himself, fearing his fate. His transformation takes an unexpected turn: he survives, but fails to fully transcend. Now, Xin Mei has become his most exquisite poison. Killing her would free him to become the perfect war demon, able to protect his people. Yet without her, the world becomes a desolate wasteland. Is love a binding force-one that demands severing emotional ties with a sword, sealing them in blood to forge an immortal legend? Or is it a stumble into destiny, where two souls are fated to become perfect partners across three lifetimes?
