Do you still remember those two male Inner Court students who delivered themselves to Death God Messenger's door, wanting to crusade against him back when he was developing his zombie legion in the Star Luo Empire?

The four of them had once formed a team together, so their relationships were all quite good, and they would still team up to carry out missions.

But Gu Fan and Hua Yao were different. They had both been secretly in love with each other, and they even both knew each other's feelings. All they lacked was one opportunity to pierce that last layer of paper between them.
