Shen Xuezhi awakens the power of “Snowfire” in the northern frontier and is hunted down, fleeing to Dongzhou. Xie Wugou is ordered to approach him, posing as a “useless rogue cultivator” to travel alongside him. They test each other and conceal their identities, while feelings quietly take root. Shen Xuezhi is accepted as a disciple by a sect in Dongzhou, and Xie Wugou becomes his “protector.” Together, they unravel the “Fragments of the Fate Scroll” and discover that they are “fated enemies.”
Final chapter: Shen Xuezhi restarts the world amid the Snowfire, leaving behind a letter: “I don’t remember you, but I remember that I love you.”
The first major emotional climax: To save Shen Xuezhi, Xie Wugou rewrites their fates and loses “the ability to love him.”
