Xuanyuan, an ancient true god, has endured ten thousand years of solitude and is a legend unrivaled across the Three Realms. Then, in a primordial secret realm, he finds Qing Heng, an innocent little blade of grass on the verge of taking human form.
With a single thought, flowers bloom, and his presence brings warmth to the Hall of Chaos. The stars become his strings, and the cold god falls in love. He shelters Qing Heng beneath his wings and spoils him endlessly, but doesn’t know how to express himself. Again and again, misunderstandings and hurt turn dependence into heartbreak.
When Qing Heng is abandoned without mercy while pregnant, and he and the child nearly die in despair, Xuanyuan finally realizes that he almost destroyed the only warmth in his life with his own hands. His long road to win Qing Heng back begins. The ancient god sets aside all his pride, desperate to make amends to the little blade of grass he wounded so deeply.
Qing Heng also discovers that he is no helpless parasite vine. He is the only Time-Warping Grass in all of heaven and earth, born with the laws of time at his command. A parent’s love makes him strong: he, too, must grow into someone who can stand shoulder to shoulder with the god.
