HAPPILY EVER AFTER—AND THEN SOME

A three-way showdown occurs as Jin Guangyao, Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji, and Nie Mingjue’s reassembled fierce corpse converge on the Guanyin Temple. With decades-long schemes finally unveiled, and terrible secrets unearthed, the events of this rain-battered night will decide not just the future of the entire cultivation world—but also that of a love story two lifetimes in the making.

Also included in this book are eight short stories about what happens when an epic tale ends but life goes on. From magical incense burners to tense banquets, lotus-pod-hunting and Night Hunts with the juniors, these stories span dawn to dusk and so much more!
