In the ancient Great Wilderness, a god fell to the mortal realm in secret. The young Yellow Emperor called her a monster and cruelly drove her away. As she lay near death, the child Chi You rescued her with kindness and cared for her devotedly.
Innocent love quietly took root among the wild mountains and forests, but the laws of Heaven's cycle were strict, and the goddess was forced to return to her place in the divine realm.
She innocently believed that a temporary parting would lead to a reunion, never knowing that one cycle between the divine and mortal realms lasted thousands of years.
Back in the divine realm, she gazed toward the Great Wilderness day after day, unable to bear watching from afar. She secretly bestowed divine blessings and ancient shamanic arts upon Chi You, helping him survive in a world torn by turmoil.
As the years passed, Chi You grew into the God of War of the Nine Li, bearing the fate of his people on his shoulders. He and the Yellow Emperor, who plotted step by step to rule the world, drifted ever farther apart. In the end, Chi You was caught in the flames of war at Zhuolu, where he died and his name was blackened.
Thousands of years passed in the blink of an eye. At last, the goddess broke free of the laws and descended to the mortal realm to be reborn, gaining the ability to foresee disasters.
But the mountains and rivers had changed, the Great Wilderness had vanished, and those she once knew had long since become dust in the pages of history.
A youthful encounter, a missed connection between god and mortal. Across thousands of years, their love remained deep but their fate too brief, with no hope of ever meeting again.
Theme: Through a god and mortal missing each other across a thousand years, this story explores sincere hearts and the unpredictability of fate. It contrasts the warmth and coldness of human nature while recounting the love, hatred, and destiny of ancient times.
