Yan Wugui couldn't remember how he came to be; his earliest memory was of Shi Yu's first birthday.
That day, Gentleman Lianzhen returned from the palace alone and entered the secret chamber.
The secret chamber was a place where the star lords of GentlemanLianzhen line would retreat, leading directly to the rear mountain.
He drove Xie Zhanghui away and sat there alone. After his master had passed away, this had become his most common practice.
He didn't know how long he had sat before he "saw" himself stand up, walk down a long corridor, and arrive at the back of the mountain.
That was Gentleman Lianzhen's most melancholic time, but all that melancholy had nothing to do with him.
He remembered everything except the unbearable sorrow of his master's death and the rage at being forced by the queen to assume the position of star lord.
This was himself, yet it was the self who had forgotten the past two years of joy and sorrow.
