He is Qingxuan, a Daoist Venerable who stands beneath the Three Pure Ones and at the pinnacle of the Dao, untouched by emotion through the ages, guarding his sect alone as he waits for the soul of someone who has returned to heaven and earth.
She is the reincarnation of his late wife, with no memories of her past life. An ordinary mortal, she climbs the mountain to seek a master and becomes his sole personal disciple.
He does not know who she is, yet instinctively protects her with all his heart.
She does not recognize him as someone from her past, yet her heart stirs for him for no reason she can explain.
A crisis, a single thought, and waves of turmoil.
At last, he recognizes that the timid young disciple before him, who calls him “Master,”
is Lingxi, the one he searched through countless lives to find, and mourned for millions of years.
In this life, let me be the one to protect you.
I will not ask about the past or force you to remember.
I only wish you peace and happiness, with no worries year after year.
