Hehua, the top disciple of Sword-Hiding Peak in the Xianwu Sect and a swordsmanship prodigy, has a secret: she doesn't cultivate the sword dao. She cultivates the path of unfeeling.
To conceal this secret, Hehua, who has been single for 300 years, sets her sights on Xuan Shangzun Xie Juming, the publicly acknowledged white moonlight of the heavenly realm.
As the foremost cultivator of the path of unfeeling, Xie Juming has no father or mother, no family or friends, no wife or children. He upholds the four words "sever all ties and renounce love" as his life's creed.
And so, the front page headline of the Cultivation Daily reads:
"Swordsmanship Prodigy Hehua Publicly Confesses Her Love for Xuan Shangzun! Today, Our Writer Takes You Through the Past Loves and Hatreds of the Greatest Cultivator in the World, Xuan Shangzun!"
The article daringly digs into Hehua and Xie Juming's past, describing their meeting as a heartrending romance and speculating about their future in a way that leaves readers sighing with regret.
With its audacious writing and taboo subject matter, the article causes a sensation throughout the cultivation world.
Watching Hehua chase after Xie Juming becomes the greatest source of entertainment in the cultivation world.
After a hundred years of painstakingly building momentum, Hehua decides it's about time to seek his love, fail, and be so heartbroken that she seals off her heart and gives up on romance forever.
Only then do the immortals come to their senses. Our old-grass-young-cow couple, whom we've shipped for a hundred years, is getting a tragic ending?
But Xie Juming, who has been aloof for a thousand years, proves through his actions that no, it isn't over yet.
Because Xie Chonghua has a secret too: he doesn't cultivate the path of unfeeling.
