[Heavenly maiden vs. leader of the demon clan] [Prince of Shu vs. minister’s illegitimate daughter]
Synopsis: It is said that nine million years ago, to preserve peace among the four factions of Heaven, Demons, Ice, and Flame, the Heavenly Emperor ordered the various sects to seal away the leader of the demon clan. The reason was that the demon leader refused to let the goddess Shuyi marry the Heavenly Crown Prince, Chiyun Jun. Afterward, the factions established the Weakwater Barrier and agreed not to intermarry, ensuring peace among the four. But this agreement brought misery to those lovers whose feelings were mutual even though they belonged to different factions. No one had ever truly seen the goddess’s face, however, and everything about her was lost to history when her immortal body perished nine million years ago. Later, the two went through trials in the mortal realm, setting off a third lifetime of love and hatred between them… Eventually, they will return to Heaven and join forces to save all living beings.
Qiusang: “I’m just a mulberry leaf with no immortal registry and no parents. If I’m turned back into my original form one day and forget you, will you still remember me?”
Mo Youmingyuan: “No matter how many centuries pass, I will never forget you. If you were gone, I would overthrow the Four Realms.”
Qiusang: “Then I’d better study hard and try to earn my immortal registry as soon as possible!”
Feng Yan: “I’m sorry, Yu Ning. As a prince of Shu, I have a duty to fulfill, but I don’t want to let you down…”
Yu Ning: “Feng Yan, I was wrong about you. In this life and the next, let’s never meet again…”
