A flirtatious, sickly goddess who doesn't know she's flirting x a paper character who doesn't realize he is in love
You Ling was born from a staff-sized egg when the universe was still chaos and Heaven and Earth had yet to form.
After enduring tens of thousands of years of loneliness, she picked up her brush and created a person.
Then she taught him poetry and books, how to tell good from evil and right from wrong, and guided him step by step until he became the protagonist of the world.
You Ling gave him eyes that could see through the truths of the world, icy and clear like flawless crystal.
She led him from a nameless little city to the summit of the world. In the end, they went their separate ways. She often told Xu Du, "I've given you my whole heart."
But Xu Du knew she was lying.
But gods aren't good with words and never lie. That is, until the gods were judged on Posuo Mountain, their sins washed away, and the chaos-crystal heart of a god purified all of creation.
But if Heaven and Earth are heartless and the gods have no hearts, then all things are but straw dogs.
