Seventeen-year-old Li Yun is guarding Qingzhu Village. His mother was dragged down by the evil curse of Youjin Cult and left a letter asking her to cultivate immortality and find her relatives. While traveling alone, she met Bai Chi and Bai Ye, the brothers and sisters of the Bai family, and later met Xiao Lingfeng and Xiao Li of the Li family. The five of them traveled together on the road to immortality, and shared life and death for five years. Several of them hid ambiguous feelings that they dared not expose and were careful to reveal.
Sashuang Baiye fell in love with the quiet and reserved Li Yunxi when they first met. The mountain road was always in front of her. Umbrellas were always tilted toward her on rainy days. The condensation on a bamboo-patterned jade hairpin became the starting point of their love. Bai Ye clumsily handed her snacks and protected her from monsters, while Li Yunxi silently boiled medicine and made sweet-scented osmanthus cakes for her. The tips of their ears felt hot when they were near each other. They were full of joy but never dared to reveal it openly, and only approached quietly through their companions.
The gentle and calm Bai Chi always pays attention to Xiao Lingfeng who is wandering alone. He forged a long sword for him, always prepared heart-protecting elixirs, and sacrificed his life to protect him in desperate situations. Xiao Lingfeng looks carefree on the surface, but in her heart she only relies on Bai Bai. She will subconsciously follow his figure and try her best to carry the hurt for him in critical moments. Her inner feelings are hidden in jokes and side by side silence, and no one dares to speak first.
Xiaoli sees through the hidden feelings of the two couples, quietly creates opportunities for solitude, and acts as a gentle mediator for everyone. The five people made an agreement to defeat the Nether Ember Cult together and fulfill their respective wishes, thinking that they would be able to express their feelings after surviving the hardship.
But when the decisive battle at Qingxuan Fairy Mountain came, the incarnation of the god Xuan Chen was overwhelmed by his strength. In a desperate situation, Li Yunxi burned all the Buddhist stones to block the fatal blow for Bai Ye, and slept forever. The blood feud was settled, and the love that had been hidden for five years was finally revealed.
From then on, Bai Ye stayed at Qingzhu and brought jade hairpins to worship him every year; Bai Chi accompanied Xiao Lingfeng to find out about the family's past and stay together for the rest of their lives. The spring breeze blows through the bamboo sea every year, and the cautious and restrained heartbeats that year are only left with lingering regrets that will last through the rest of everyone's life.
But 100 years later, they all became great masters, and Li Yunxi seemed to be back...
Purpose: Even if we have regrets, we have pursued our dreams together. If we sincerely accompany each other, we will be able to live up to the hardships along the way.
