Yale Xenford was the Divine Son of the Ninth Heaven and carried the responsibility of saving all living beings.
When the Heavenly Tribulation descended, my master, Emma Carter, heartlessly pushed me forward to face it on everyone’s behalf. She sent me to die in Yale’s place.
The Heavenly Tribulation put me through endless agony. I lost all my cultivation before I managed to survive by the narrowest of margins.
After I returned to the Ninth Heaven, my wife, Snow Lockwood, promised me a grand wedding.
But on our wedding day, Yale left behind a letter and went to challenge the Demon Queen, Grace Sullivan, to a fight to the death.
He lost the battle and fell into her hands. Snow could not bear to see him suffer. She joined forces with Emma and offered me to Grace in exchange for Yale’s freedom.
In the end, Grace tore out my heart, and I lost all five of my senses. Only then did the people who had always protected Yale start to deeply regret their actions.
