    This one's good. The female lead cultivates immortality and travels to a bygone era, while the male lead travels from a post-apocalyptic world to the same era. The male lead falls in love with the female lead at first sight. The romance develops very quickly. The male lead is incredibly imaginative and loves to fantasize. He's the type who thinks even the female lead's breathing is a sign of his skill. Both are extremely powerful, so even in this historical setting, they manage to have a sweet and loving daily life. If you don't like stories that are primarily romance-driven and saccharine, don't read this.
