Synopsis of Where the Clouds Run Deep, My Love for You Never Fails
In the Clouded Ravine of Mount Chang Geng, immortal physician Shen Qingci guards an ice-sealed jade coffin, enduring three years of lonely vigil. Inside lies the one she loves, Mo Yuan, the Heavenly Pivot Emperor who once held power over the Three Realms. Three years ago, his younger brother Mo Chen framed him, leaving him near death in a catastrophe that drenched the mountain gate in blood. Shen Qingci sealed his fading soul in ten-thousand-year-old black ice and, on her own, raised a protective barrier around him.
She traveled across the Ten Thousand Ghost Caves and braved the far northern ice fields, all to gather Soul-Gathering Flowers and pray that he would open his eyes and see the world again. Yet on the day the black ice shattered, he returned with his memories still frozen, his eyes full of an aloofness and suspicion she could not understand. The deep love they had shared for a thousand years seemed to have gathered dust over those three years.
When Mo Yuan learns that she drained her essence to save him and risked her life time and again, and Shen Qingci sees the concern and remorse beneath his cold exterior, they finally rebuild their trust amid suspicion and honest confessions, joining forces to face the looming dangers. Mo Chen's pursuit has never ceased. He even colludes with the demon realm, intent on plunging the Three Realms into chaos. And hidden in the tangled history of their thousand-year bond are secrets about ancient gods and mysteries entwined with their fates.
The mist-shrouded Mount Chang Geng is their place of refuge and the beginning of a love that took root deep in their hearts. From the snowy peaks of Kunlun to the shores of the East Sea, from danger at the Jade Pool to the terrors of the Ten Thousand Ghost Caves, they swear their vows in blood and wield love as a blade, fighting betrayal and conspiracy to protect each other and all living beings.
This is an immortal romance that spans life and death, and a legend of steadfast devotion and redemption. The road ahead may be hidden in the clouds, but may our love for one another never fail.
