Programmer Han Yichen died suddenly and transmigrated to the 1960s. Within him was a small universe called the Taixu Realm, home to a nine-tailed celestial fox named Bai Li, who had waited for him for ten thousand years.
He joins Agency 749 to handle supernatural cases across the country, cultivate and rise through the ranks, craft magical artifacts and elixirs, and fight the organization called the Dusk Council, which plots to devour the Taixu Realm.
The romance is a slow burn: Bai Li is proud and sharp-tongued, hiding her affection behind “You're such a pain”; Han Yichen is rational and restrained, letting his actions speak for everything he can't bring himself to say. The truth unfolds layer by layer: the fate set in motion ten thousand years ago, the wounds of this life, and the words “The one I've been waiting for is you,” finally spoken aloud. After a long journey spanning five volumes, it all ends with the two of them sitting side by side in the Taixu Realm, gazing at the river of stars.
At that moment, fate, the Dao Ancestor, reincarnation, none of it matters anymore.
