Jiang Zhaoxue never imagined that her own wedding would become the beginning of a fight for the fate of the heavens. Forced to marry the fallen Heavenly Lord, Xie Wuwang, in place of her sister, she barely has time to understand what is happening before Jiang Mingluan betrays her and pushes her from the Cloud Sea Altar.Instead of dying, Jiang Zhaoxue falls into the mysterious Void Realm Temple, where an ancient power awakens within her. The goddess within her finally emerges, and she returns to the Nine Heavens carrying a secret left behind by her mother—a truth powerful enough to shake the entire divine realm.To uncover what really happened, Jiang Zhaoxue must survive a series of deadly trials, including the Life Lamp test, the Cloud Bridge trial, and the dangerous ruins where she must retrieve the sacred flag. With every challenge, she uncovers another piece of a conspiracy that has been hidden for centuries.The truth is far darker than she imagined. The Heavenly Empress’s so-called “heaven-mending sacrifice” was never meant to save the heavens. It was a carefully concealed scheme designed to drain the lives of goddesses and use their power to sustain the divine throne.As the final battle begins, Xie Wuwang destroys the divine throne at the cost of his remaining soul. Jiang Zhaoxue then exposes the truth to the Nine Heavens, proving that the supposed heavenly rift was nothing more than a carefully fabricated illusion.With the old order shattered, Jiang Zhaoxue leads three thousand surviving soldiers in rebuilding the Nine Heavens. Yet even as she restores a broken world, her heart remains tied to the man who sacrificed everything. Scattered fragments of Xie Wuwang’s soul still remain, and Jiang Zhaoxue begins the long search for them.She knows it may take centuries, perhaps even a thousand years, but she refuses to give up. As long as even a fragment of him remains, she will wait for the day Xie Wuwang returns.
