Adapted from the novel <When the Flowers Fall, We Meet Again>
She spent a thousand years loving him with all her heart, all for him to promise, “When you become an immortal, I'll marry you.”
But at his ascension ceremony, she saw him place the Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix Hairpin in the hair of the Yaochi Fairy himself.
“It was only a joke.” Those words crushed all her devotion. She leapt from the Immortal-Slaying Platform, shattering her immortal bones, and heard only his anguished roar.
When she opened her eyes again, she was Hong Ning, an orphan selling tea amid the bustle of the mortal world.
When the flowers fell, Jin Xiu, the Central Heaven God Lord who had once stood high above the Nine Heavens, came to a dilapidated tea shop, his splendor subdued.
“Hong Ning, I have come to find you.”
This time, she smiled and slid three copper coins across the counter.
“It's three coins for the tea, sir. No credit.”
Thus begins a pursuit that spans the immortal and mortal worlds.
Though she has forgotten her past, she bears a supernatural power and a hidden origin that make all three realms covet her. He, having repented of his deep love, is willing to defy the heavenly laws and use his divine body as her shield.
The heavens impose their punishment, the demon clan circles near, and betrayals sealed away for a thousand years, along with the pain of the Immortal-Slaying Platform, tear through her rebirth.
When the karmic flames burn away old hatred, even withered wood will welcome the rain of new life.
Can they, in the season of falling flowers, brew a simple cup of tea together on a reborn Kunlun Ruins and promise to stay together through lifetimes of reincarnation?
