The deathless lamp-bearer Bai Jin cannot die until he finds the one destined to extinguish the heart-lamp. But every destined one is the reincarnation of A Ying, the girl he saved a thousand years ago. When the fourth incarnation, Song Jiayan, appears, the rift in the endless night, his former companion Yun Fan, the record keeper Meng Ting, and the leader of the vengeful spirits, Chen Ji, all bring the debts of a thousand years to their end.
Theme: Can two people bound by fate free each other? In the end, they discover that debts are not paid off, but set down. Setting something down does not mean forgetting it. It means carrying it with you as you keep moving forward.
