Nobody knew that the aloof and god-like Lu Chengjin had fallen in love at first sight with Sheng Lingxi, harboring a secret admiration for her for a long time. When Sheng Lingxi was found by her biological parents and returned from the countryside to the capital, she was met not with maternal love and paternal affection, but with indifference and disdain. "You are worthless, how can you compare with your sister!" "The gap between you two is like heaven and earth!" Feeling cold-hearted, Sheng Lingxi left the Sheng family and promptly married the CEO of the top conglomerate in the capital, Lu Chengjin. After marriage, Lu, the big boss, transformed into a doting husband like a tyrant, and everyone couldn't bear to watch anymore. Who did this countryside bumpkin think she was? It wasn't until Sheng Lingxi's identity was exposed that everyone realized they had been wrong all along!

In a desolate world, she exists nameless and genderless, stripped of hair and eyebrows, bearing only a designated number. For a decade, she has lived a life devoid of agency, trapped in a cycle of killing and being killed, day in and day out. She is an apostle of the divine, sustained by the ability to take lives in exchange for abundant food, secure shelter, and decent clothing. Her victims? Mostly ordinary individuals—poor, lonely, filthy, cruel, and short-lived. It's the brutal reality of the food chain, stark and rational.  On the isolated Western Isle, plagued by natural disasters, severe cold, and epidemic for over two decades, people are born into starkly different circumstances. That is, until a vessel from the east breaks through the impassable waters and descends like a god on the eastern coastline.  Deciding to spare lives, she lets her hair grow, renouncing her role as an executioner. Yet, beneath the perpetual light of the polar day, horrors more grotesque and absurd than wanton slaughter emerge. Life, inherently bound to death, compels her and others to rebel against an unbearable fate.  This novel delves into themes of identity, morality, and survival against an unforgiving backdrop. As she navigates a world that challenges her every notion of purpose and existence, she must confront the specter of violence and the darkness within herself. Can she break free from her past and forge a new path, or is the cycle of bloodshed destined to continue?
