   Reader note

   The first book tells the story of Xie Fuyan, a sword cultivator from the unattainable realm of cultivation, who is gradually manipulated and approached by Ling Xianluo, a bewitching woman from the demonic sect. She disguises herself as his "white moonlight" (ideal lover), using a false identity to create an entanglement with him, ultimately forcing him into a love tribulation, even causing him to use forbidden techniques to become a demon to save her. The ending, where he humbly begs, "Say 'I love you' one more time," pushes the emotional turmoil to its extreme. The second book features He Yuqin, a gentle and noble man, the white moonlight in the hearts of Jiangcheng's socialites, who is deliberately seduced by the sickly and possessive heroine, Jiang Zhiyao. She approaches him under the guise of a "fake sibling," appearing polite and obedient on the surface, but in reality, meticulously plotting to tear apart his restraint. The male lead goes from being unattainable to becoming a plaything, and the turning point in his later dark revenge lies in the phrase, "Let's sink together." The third book features Cheng Chuxiao, originally the heroine's mortal enemy, who, due to a misunderstanding, is mistakenly identified as her white moonlight by the amnesiac. He appeared to be restrained, but lost control and forcibly kissed the female lead after she regained her memories, even uttering the taboo line about "stealing a woman's time."

    The story revolves around a male master and a female disciple. The empress pursues her master, who appears gentle but is actually aloof and incredibly difficult to win over. After a tremendous struggle, the empress finally wins his heart. Following their marriage, the master humbles himself and descends from his divine pedestal for love. The story then devastates the male protagonist, causing him both emotional and physical suffering, but ultimately features a dramatic "chasing-back-to-her-husband" trope.
