She is a little peach blossom spirit from the mountains, and he is a former battle god. One chance encounter draws them into the myriad wonders of the human world and the fate of their past lives.
Taotao was a peach tree spirit, content to grow quietly on a sacred mountain. She had no desire to go anywhere, only to keep sleeping, blooming, and growing new branches on Husband and Wife Mountain. Then one day, he came along.
He was a gentle yet powerful demon. When her peach branches blossomed after a night of dreaming, he took her as his disciple and brought her down the mountain to travel the human world.
She fell for him.
So she played the obedient disciple while secretly hatching a plan to “seduce her master.”
He was once a battle god of the heavenly realm. After an accident, he gave up his divine title, severed his ties to the past, and traveled the world to atone for his regrets. Mistaking the peach tree spirit for a “spirit object left behind by an old friend,” he took her as his disciple. At first, he only wanted to protect her and give her a peaceful life. But as they spent every day together, he gradually recognized the familiar presence and gaze. She was no keepsake. She was herself.
Together, they set out into the human world and traveled far and wide. Through danger and wonder, their divine senses awakened, and fragments of their shattered memories began to return. Cang Yu, too, had to face the feelings and choices he had buried in his heart for ten thousand years.
If she is still herself, and he is still himself, then with gods and demons rising and the old heavens returning, can they still reach for each other’s hands beyond the constraints of fate and identity?
She is determined to win him over, while he protects her childlike innocence for a lifetime.
But when the truth comes to light and fate turns on its head, will she still run to him as she always has?
