They say the third time is a charm, but for Xie Lian, it feels more like a cosmic joke. Eight centuries ago, he was the golden boy of the Heavens, a beloved Crown Prince who ascended to godhood with the entire world at his feet. But fame is fleeting, and after a series of catastrophic falls from grace, he became the laughingstock of the three realms. Now, having ascended for the third time, he is a god without a single temple or a single follower, reduced to collecting literal trash just to survive.

Just when it seems like his luck could not get any worse, he encounters a mysterious youth in red who seems to know everything about him. Behind that charming smile and playful wit lies a secret that makes the heavens shake: this is Hua Cheng, the Crimson Rain Sought Through a Flower, a Ghost King feared by gods and demons alike. Why would one of the four supreme calamities want anything to do with a disgraced scrap-collecting deity? From unraveling ancient conspiracies to facing the ghosts of his own past, Xie Lian is about to discover that some bonds are stronger than death and some debts take eight hundred years to repay. Get ready for an epic, heart-wrenching masterpiece of devotion that proves even the most broken god can find his way home.
