The ancient deity Qing Xuan was so drowsy that her spirit wandered through the world. After slipping into the body of an injured little fox, she was found by Liang Yuqing, the head of Xianyuan Sect, a powerful sect that hunted demons. Two months later, the little fox transformed into a human, and Liang Yuqing took Qing Xuan in as his personal attendant. During their time together, Liang Yuqing gradually fell in love with her.
But a hundred years later, Qing Xuan was struck down in a great battle while protecting them, and her soul was knocked from her body. From then on, the head of Xianyuan Sect went mad, scouring the world for even a fragment of the little fox's soul. Having returned to her true body, Qing Xuan eventually grew bored and, after accepting a few bribes, descended to the mortal realm to see how things were going. And so, a hundred years later, Liang Yuqing spotted the little fox eating wontons at a roadside stall in a border city.
Liang Yuqing walked toward her, trembling. Looking at the person before him, so real and unmistakably alive, he could no longer hold back his tears. Qing Xuan asked, “Is something the matter?” Liang Yuqing felt as if a massive stone were lodged in his throat. He trembled uncontrollably. “A-Xuan, I finally found you.” Qing Xuan merely gave him a cool glance. “If I remember correctly, the debt from a hundred years ago has already been repaid.” Liang Yuqing could no longer hear anything else. All he wanted was to hold the person he had searched for over a hundred years.
Later, Liang Yuqing discovered that Qing Xuan treated everyone the same. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't stir her heart, but by then he could no longer leave her...
