Song Lange, a top-tier mystic arts master raised on Shengji Mountain, is cool-headed and gentle, yet fiercely protective of those she loves. To face the deadly calamity foretold by her master, she leaves the mountain carrying a bag decorated with a “love” patch her younger brother gave her, and returns to the Song family after sixteen years away.
As soon as she enters the outside world, her cousin drags her to livestream from an abandoned house. Song Lange draws talismans by hand to break a deadly energy passage and accurately points out feng shui problems in a viewer’s home. Overnight, she becomes a nationally acclaimed mystic arts sensation. But who could have guessed that the spiritual energy she inadvertently reveals on stream would ease the chilling affliction suffered by Qi Hanchuan, head of the powerful Qi family of Jinghua?
This scheming, theatrical CEO may seem aloof and abstinent, but in truth he pretends to be weak, begs for hugs, and clings to her, taking his shameless pursuit to the extreme.
“Master Song, my chilling affliction is acting up. Only you can save me.”
“Lange, a hug will make it stop hurting.”
…
Qi Hanchuan knows exactly how to play on this cool-headed mystic’s soft spot.
When they encounter a tree demon and a fog wraith during a wilderness survival trip, his chilling affliction flares up as he protects her. When they investigate five strange spirits stealing wealth in the city, he uses his resources to clear her path. Then her memories of a past life awaken: they were the Holy Maiden and the God of War, guardians of the Zhenyuan Stone, who promised to find each other in their next lives before sacrificing themselves.
As if that weren’t enough, her master and his master turn out to be former lovers who parted after a misunderstanding, giving both master-disciple pairs their own sweet romance. When the Yinluo Cult emerges, a blood-sacrifice formation is activated, and the remnants of an evil clan awaken, Song Lange joins forces with Qi Hanchuan. Combining her spiritually attuned fate with his Abyssal chill, they protect their families, fight their enemies, and defend the mortal world.
With the mystic arts of the Eight Trigrams shaping the world and talismans and spells breaking every evil force, a cool-headed mystic meets a scheming, doting husband. Their past-life longing is fulfilled in this one. Their trial-bound journey is both a battle to defend the righteous path of the mystic arts and a destined love in which both hearts reach for each other!
