I Want to Be Immortal

share time: 2026-01-05 12:34:04

Chu Xuan, the most unfortunate prince of Great Chu, lost his mother to the Empress's frame-up and was demoted to a commoner. He was starving on the street when he accidentally bound to the "Immortality System"—but the first task wasn’t cultivating magic, but "protect the doctor girl who will save you." Su Wanning, a noble lady hiding from a forced marriage, insisted on treating Chu Xuan’s wounds, teasing him, "Your eyes are prouder than a prince’s." While using the system to unlock ancient techniques, Chu Xuan protected Su Wanning from assassins and cleared her family’s injustice. However, he uncovered a plot: his mother’s death was part of the Empress’s power grab. Turns out the system wasn’t a "tool for immortality"—it was teaching him to "guard": guard his lover’s heart, guard the kingdom’s foundation, and guard the "home" he never dared to dream of. When the Empress’s assassin aimed at Su Wanning, Chu Xuan held his newly forged sword, eyes red: "I want to be immortal, but first I’ll keep you safe!" When the court fell into chaos, he stood on the city wall in a dragon robe, with Su Wanning holding their child behind him—true immortality isn’t longevity, but guarding those you love and the kingdom you belong to.
