A Lone Sword Beneath the Cold Moon

Top, two male leads, 1v1, equally matched, cultivation, younger man

Carefree and uninhibited top x aloof and cold bottom in public

When swordlight tears through space and time, when the cold and proud one lowers his gaze and calls your name, don't run away again this time.

In a world ten thousand years in the future, Si Qingyi saves the gravely wounded Jun Xunjing. They travel together for several months and form an unbreakable bond. The ancient realm is suddenly invaded by abyssal demons, and all of Si Qingyi's relatives are killed. At the last moment, he is sent ten thousand years into the future, where he ends up in Qingmu Village. On the eve of his adulthood, a beast tide strikes. With a single sword, he slays ten thousand demons, staining the wilderness with blood, but in the depths of despair, he sees a figure who shouldn't exist: Jun Xunjing. How could someone from ten thousand years ago appear in the future? He thinks it must be an illusion, a fixation.

After leaving the village, Si Qingyi encounters someone in a secret realm who looks exactly like Jun Xunjing, but assumes he must be Jun Xunjing's ancestor.

Jun Xunjing: "What did you just call me?"

Si Qingyi: "Senior Jun."

As he speaks, he looks the other man up and down, as if inspecting an antique.

Si Qingyi: "How can there be such a coincidence? The same name, the same surname, even the same face, like someone copied and pasted it. Could it be that you're actually his great-grandfather?"

Jun Xunjing: "I'm not his great-grandfather. I'm Jun Xunjing himself. Not a senior, not an ancestor, just the person you know."

Si Qingyi: "How is that possible? I met him in a world ten thousand years in the future..."

Jun Xunjing: "Figure it out yourself."
