Chapter Text
Once 800 years ago there was a prince who pleased the heavens. Once 800 years ago the kingdom of Xianle fell. Along with the kingdom fell the prince. He fell again. He would be nailed into a coffin, he would claw and scream until his nails were no more and his throat couldn't bleed anymore. He would die one more time and then it was done. Xie Lian closed his eyes as he felt his life finally slip away.
Xie Lian stood on top of the place where he had been confide for the past century. Cursing his bad luck, even after his death he wouldn't be able to pass on peacefully. Though he had to admit it was amazing to be able to stretch his legs and arms again. It had been so long. If only he could breathe, than he would have been able to enjoy the crisp air. Looking down on the ground he stood upon, some instinct kicked in. Directing him through the next actions.
First he dug up the coffin. When Xie Lian finally got it out of the ground, it had taken less time then he thought it would. His strength had seem to return after dying. Not that he wasn't strong before, but he had instantly recovered from any damage from the coffin. As Xie looked at his former prison, he.felt an odd sense of shock from the size.of the coffin. He knew it was small, but it seemed even smaller now that he had seen the sky again.
As his instincts continued to instructed him he opened up the coffin, Rouye climbed out wrapping itself around his arm. Xie Lian also grabbed his bamboo hat before lighting the coffin on fire burning his corpse. The ashes of his corpse forming a small flower that was achingly familiar. Feeling sick he tucked his ashes away. With nothing more to do he wandered.
He wandered for a very long time. Eventually feeling an odd tung on his body. He followed the tung to a mountain named Mount Tonglu. There were other ghosts there, all fighting. So, Xie Lian joined the fight. Slaying ghosts right and left. He started with his fists, but soon found a decent sword. Xie Lian had been a martial God, giving an advantage over some of the.ghosts. Slowly during the.fights, he gained part of himself. Recovering through the battles and bloodshed.
When Xie Lian had finally came to the kiln, he was bloody and exhausted, but he felt more alive then he had during half of his life. It took a little time for Xie Lian to stand victorious, soon he did.
Erupting from the volcanoe caused him to lose his cursed shackles. Gaining the tittle 'White flower bathed in moonlight.' Xie Lian decided to enjoy his new power. To help others with it. He would spend a while like this. Until he ment someone very dear to him.
Little did he know, the heavens were shaking. Two Calamities working together! Two Calamities married!?!?!
