Long Yuzhen's POV
My name is Long Yuzhen—the lord of the demon and dragon realms. Yet more than any crown or title, what I treasure most is being known as the disciple of my master—the one I loved beyond all else.
Five years… it has been five years since fate tore us apart. If that cruel accident had never happened, perhaps our lives would have remained entwined. Perhaps I would not be standing here, haunted by memories, desperate for what I once lost.
I still remember the first time I saw him. Those ocean-blue eyes… sharp as a blade, yet warm enough to melt the frost in my heart. The world called him a demon in human form, but to me, he was the gentlest soul I had ever known.
He was the man who always shielded the weak, who never judged another by their race or status, who bore wounds in silence so others could smile. How could such a heart ever be monstrous? To me, he was light—my light.
