The first time you met Han Li, you were a mortal carrying a greatsword and nearly took the head off a Qi Refining cultivator.
If Han Li hadn't intervened in time, you would probably have landed yourself in serious trouble.
You thought that having neither father nor mother, and spending your life with a sword for company, would be enough. But then, that day, you met Shopkeeper Han of Green Bamboo Pavilion.
Soon, the whole city knew you were in love with Shopkeeper Han. He alone never returned your feelings.
Only later did you discover that he was a lofty cultivator with an unshakable Dao heart. To him, an ordinary mortal like you was merely a passerby in the mortal world.
At last, you accepted another person's proposal and placed a red wedding invitation in front of him with your own hands.
"Shopkeeper Han, I'm getting married."
He was silent for a long time. Then he said only, "Congratulations."
You thought that was the end of your story together.
But fate winds in circles, and love is hard to sever.
Years later, Han Li learned that you hadn't been a chance encounter in the mortal world on his path to immortality. You were a strand of a split soul sent down from the Spirit Realm, who had traveled a long way to help him overcome his tribulation of the mortal world.

*A short story
*Inspired by how much I love Han Li during the tribulation of the mortal world. He seems like an immortal who has fallen to earth, touched by the warmth of everyday life and given a little humanity.
