In three thousand years, what Xie Mo waited for was never an illusion. It was the day they would reunite across life and death.
Zheng La: Thanks for asking. This burned-out student just wants to laze around, eat fruit, and enjoy retirement. Who dragged me into an immortal cultivation tribulation?!
Modern-day college student Zheng La believes that there's no point competing when you can just lie flat. That is, until a sky full of fireflies drags him into an ancient world of immortal cultivation, where a mysterious whisper rings in his ears: "You endured countless tribulations as an illusion, all so I could have one peaceful lifetime."
He opens his eyes and meets a pair of cool, clear eyes. The immortal's brows are as flawless as carved jade. Zheng La's heart leaps. "What a gorgeous guy... Wait, where am I?!"
From bickering and stealing spirit fruit from each other to becoming comrades who face danger side by side, the two are drawn into a mystery woven through the Three Realms. Zheng La turns out to be the sinner who set their shared karma in motion. To protect him, Xie Mo willingly accepts imprisonment in the Frozen Abyss, where his three souls and seven spirits are sealed in ice. Meanwhile, armed with a modern imagination, Zheng La ventures into secret realms and breaks out of deadly traps, growing from a burned-out student who lazes in trees and munches fruit into a guardian who can stand shoulder to shoulder with an immortal.
Mist veils the road, while sweetness lies along the way.
Xie Mo's compassion gives Zheng La the courage to take root in this strange world. Zheng La's arrival is the answer to Xie Mo's three-thousand-year longing.
"Now that you're here, don't leave again. This time, I'll keep you safe."
A laid-back, growth-oriented gong x a cool, devoted shou
Extra Scene:
Zheng La rolls his eyes as he munches a spirit peach. "Undergo a tribulation? No way. You go if you want to."
Xie Mo lowers his eyes and takes his hand, his fingertips cool. "Together. I'll make sure there's plenty of spirit peaches."
Zheng La: "...Deal!"
