A Dream within a Dream

Dargom Bes — Sat, 05 Jul 2025 00:20:06 +0000

What would you do if you accidentally cross over into the world of a script, and become the heroine who is abandoned and abused to death by the villainous hero?

Song Xiao Yu does not need to think about it. Without a doubt, she would run away as far as she can. However, no matter how hard she tries, the "plot" will always push her to the hero, Nan Heng, and stage one famous scene in the script, after another…

In this world of a script, there are also countless characters that have been "set" for a long time. Some people are trapped in the deep palace, some are trapped in aristocratic families, some are tired of competition amongst women, and some are running away from those in power. Some people yearn for love and freedom, but they can only dance around in shackles. Some people dream of rising rapidly, but their passion gets worn away by constraints and mediocrity day after day.

This is not only a fierce battle between the death fearing “salted fish”, Song Xiao Yu, and the vicious and merciless “grim reaper”, Nan Heng, but also the battle between every script character and their established fate.

Mu Xuan Ling saved the heavily injured Xie Xue Chen in the Dark Domain and coerced him to travel together in gratitude for saving his life.

However, amidst the conspiracy to seize the divine artifact, the "Chaos Pearl," they found themselves in a life-and-death trial. Mu Xuan Ling sacrificed herself to save the world, and Xie Xue Chen defied fate to go back in time and rescue her. With the end of the eternal calamity, Xie Xue Chen’s soul finally returned to Zhao Ming, but Zhao Ming’s original form had become a demon god. Mu Xuan Ling used love to awaken the demon god, dispelling the catastrophe and bringing peace to the world.
