About This Novel
Chu Buyan was originally the most dazzling playboy in Jinling City, and cultivating immortals was just the icing on the cake for him. It wasn't until the Bloody Night of Xuanjia, when the whole Chu family was executed, that he truly realized the harshness of the world on the way to escape. When all the relatives were betrayed and separated, only the inconspicuous maid Sun Guo remained silently by her side. At the critical moment of life and death by the Blackwater River, Chu Buyan pushed her into the rapids to save himself. This decision became a pain that he could not let go of for the rest of his life. By chance, Chu Buyan received the inheritance of "Tai Xuan Jing" and his cultivation improved by leaps and bounds. He supported the new king and overthrew the old dynasty, but on the day when the new dynasty was established, he chose to become a historian. Everyone in the world thinks he is stupid, trading his cultivation to the heavens for the Ancient Blue Lantern Scroll. Only Chu Buyan knew that when Sun Guo died trying to save him, immortality meant nothing to him. For decades after that, he secluded himself in the court, devoted himself to his duties, and recorded the people of the world with pen and ink. Whenever it was quiet at night, he would always think of the silly girl who gave him the last bite of pancake on a cold night in a ruined temple. Now that his fate is approaching, he just wants to fulfill that unfulfilled promise. This work depicts the growth process of a prodigal son with delicate brushstrokes, and explores the eternal propositions between power and responsibility, immortality and true love. Against the grand background of the Xianxia world, a period of affectionate waiting spanning life and death is shown.
