A sly, domineering little fox vs. a scheming, sweet-talking big bad wolf
Twelve years ago, a great fire in Gusu City destroyed the legendary Immortal's Descent Tower.
Twelve years later, a group of people lay low in secret, waiting for the day the truth comes to light and their great revenge is finally served.
They had thought they would live only for revenge.
But they never expected to find a fated love that would entangle them for life.
This is a story of country and family, redemption, revenge, and friendship. The male and female leads each carry great responsibilities and secrets. They were never meant to walk the same path, but a chance encounter stirred feelings in their hearts. Yet each had duties and a mission of their own. In the end, they never once said the word love, but kept that love in their hearts forever.
The heroine was abandoned by her family as a child and later found her way to the Jinling Pavilion. She thought she would spend the rest of her life sinking into the world of mortals, but every girl at the pavilion cherished and protected her as she grew up. They guarded and healed her like family. In the end, however, she watched her sisters die before her eyes. A great fire reduced everything to silence. After that, the Jinling Pavilion was no more. From then on, Chu Yue lived only to avenge her sisters, challenging the powerful with nothing but a mortal's strength.
Burdened with blood feuds, how will they choose between love and duty?
