James Carter, a thrill-seeking tourist, finds himself drawn to the eerie allure of Jabirath Mandir, an ancient temple hidden deep within the Himalayan foothills. The villagers warn him to stay away, whispering of Emperor Dharanveer, a ruthless ruler whose restless spirit is said to haunt the crumbling ruins. Dismissing their superstitions, James sets out to explore the temple, camera in hand, hoping to capture the remnants of a lost empire.
But the deeper he ventures into the shadows of the temple, the more unnerving the whispers become. They guide him to a sealed chamber, where he discovers a hidden tomb and the stone-carved figure of Dharanveer's corpse inside. Compelled by curiosity, he touches the statue, unknowingly breaking a long-forgotten curse. The air chills, and the shadows seem to close in, as the once-lifeless form of Emperor Dharanveer stirs.
Awakening after centuries in a dark, restless slumber, the emperor is captivated by the intruder who has disturbed his eternal rest. But Dharanveer's idea of gratitude is twisted-he insists that James must now stay with him, bound in a dark, mystical marriage to ensure his spirit never returns to the abyss. Trapped within the temple's walls, James faces a terrifying choice: submit to the emperor's demands, or be haunted by a vengeful spirit determined to keep him in this eerie, ancient love story forever.
Caught between fear and a dangerous allure, James finds himself entangled in a strange and perilous relationship with a man who is as cold as the stone he once was. With no clear escape, he must navigate the deadly games of a ruler who refuses to be forgotten-and maybe, just maybe, uncover the lingering humanity buried beneath centuries of rage and loneliness.
A soft exhale escaped through the Heavenly Emperor's lips, helplessly staring into the endless void, whising the universe would, in it's infinite apathy, allow him to return into it's cold embrace, never to see the sunlight again. After the blink of an eye, he said, so softly it may as well have been an illusion:
-Why did it have to be like this... Why did you have to be like this?
The immortal didn't answer. He simply knelt, his head bowing to the ground in silent submission.
-I have loved a man more than duty. Yet I do not carry the shame of regret. Forgive me, my Lord, for I have sinned.
Between heaven and earth, mortals and immortals coexist in a delicate balance. But when the actions of the past become entangled, destiny becomes a labyrinth with no exit.
Zhao Wei, a young man marked by tragedy, is forced to confront his past and uncover the truth about the disappearance of his parents and the subsequent death of his brother in the shuiyue sect's fire by the arrival of Yuan Zhi, a mysterious young man who seems to be more than he reveals. Together, they must navigate a world of secrets and lies to uncover the truth about their past and their shared destiny.
