[CHARACTER DEPTH LEVEL +10] Three years have passed since Shen
Qingqiu betrayed Luo Binghe, and now there are only two years left
before his "deceased" disciple rises from the dead to claim his
bloody glory as the protagonist. At least, that's how the story is
supposed to go. In the midst of investigating a mysterious plague,
Shen Qingqiu discovers that his actions have irreparably altered
the plot-Luo Binghe has returned all too soon and Shen Qingqiu's
brilliant escape plan isn't even ready yet! Worse, Shen Qingqiu can
no longer predict his young disciple's actions. The only thing that
hasn't changed is Luo Binghe's intense fixation on Shen Qingqiu
himself, but even this obsession may be more than it seems. Not
that Shen Qingqiu has the time to puzzle through all the
inconsistencies. There are various parties at play in the changing
plot, and if he doesn't act fast, he may face a fate far worse than
death.
To escape the villainous scheming of Xue Yang, A-Qing is determined to
flee, and take her companion Xiao Xingchen along with her. But Xiao
Xingchen cannot shake his sense of responsibility - he resolves to stay
behind and confront Xue Yang alone. That’s when Xue Yang reveals the
truth behind their Night Hunts, and all the horrible things he’s
tricked Xiao Xingchen into doing for so many years. Battle is joined
between old friends and fated rivals! Back in the present, Wei Wuxian
watches their tragic history unfold, and is left with a single thought.
To set things right, he must kill Xue Yang.
