Ling Sui, who was abandoned by his family, took his young brother Ling Yan to beg on the street. When his brother was haunted by evil spirits, Shue, a monk who traveled around the world, came to rescue him. In order to protect his younger brother's soul, Ling Sui exhausted all his vitality and died. His soul wandered in Yin and Yang and practiced ghost arts as hard as possible, condensing a stable body that was no different from ordinary people.
Shue couldn't find her soul, so she could only take in Ling Yan, whose memory was misplaced, and educate her carefully. Shue's master, Lord Jing Chen, was paranoid and secretly brainwashed Ling Yan for many years, distorting the truth and making him believe that Shue had killed his sister.
Many years later, the two reunited in a busy city. The immortal and the ghost broke the taboo and fell in love, spending their days together in the Plum Forest Immortal Residence. Ling Yan, blinded by hatred, finally drew his sword and faced him. Shue did not resist, and died in Ling Sui's arms, his body turning into white plum blossoms floating in the sky.
The truth was slowly revealed later. The villain's master was punished by heaven and imprisoned. Ling Yan committed suicide and stayed in the valley to redeem his sins for the rest of his life. Ling Sui guarded the plum forest alone, and later accepted the ghost apprentice Han Shuo and the girl Sui He who was rescued from the fire. A vague love gradually developed between the two apprentices, but Ling Sui always guarded the plum blossoms all over the ground, quietly waiting for the souls of his old friends to reunite. The main text stays at the tragic moment of Luomei's fall, and the extra chapter continues with the long lonely years in the future.
Purpose: To tell the story of forbidden love between fairies and ghosts, and to explore obsession, regret and waiting through lies, misunderstandings and deaths. Under the intertwining of love and hate, mistakes will create lifelong regrets, and new tenderness and bonds will also breed in the lonely years.
