Journey Through Mountains and Rivers, Listening to Wind and Snow

Chapters 1–30 are from the male lead’s perspective.

Chapters 31–68 are from the female lead’s perspective.

From Chapter 68 onward, the story is told in third person.

“As a god cold by nature, I scorned all human joys and sorrows. I thought myself above everyone else. I never offered salvation without cause, nor granted anyone good fortune. Yet because he called me Lord Liuyin again and again, I repeated these words in my heart thousands upon thousands of times: I hope every year brings you peace and freedom from worry.”

Liuyin is a fox spirit who knows nothing of the ways of the world. She sneaks down to the mortal realm and becomes a court musician, where she meets a young, naive princess who is already betrothed. She also saves an actor destined to die an untimely death. The human world is wonderful! Here, she’s a savior and a trendsetter at the forefront of fashion. But the next time she descends to the mortal realm, she transforms into an actor herself. Her senior sister takes a liking to her, a man takes a liking to her, and even the lecher across the street sets his sights on her... It’s only natural, really. When Ziyin smiles and furrows her brow, she outshines the silver stars for miles around and makes the flowers blush; her beauty could even intoxicate the wind and send it drifting to the ends of the earth. Ahem, those aren’t my words, they’re Xiaobai’s!
