Qi Ling has no parents, suffers from a serious illness, and has little time left to live.
That sounds tragic, but in a world where the supernatural is returning and calamity gods are everywhere, simply living in peace, far from conflict, is already a blessing.
Qi Ling is grateful and happily lives each day to the fullest.
He thought he would simply die this way, but then strange people started appearing around him.
Free medical checkups keep popping up right outside his home, always conducted by the same doctor.
A pair of wealthy sisters keep getting lost, and after he gives them directions, they reward him with money and snacks.
Whenever he goes out, a delivery guy passing by his house offers him a free ride.
Even when he walks down the street, an animal follows him. Sometimes it's a dog, sometimes a cat, and sometimes a creature that's a mishmash of different beasts...
The beautiful, kindhearted neighbor who just moved in, as if some god had descended to earth, even kindly offers him a job.
Qi Ling feels incredibly lucky. He has a home and a job, and there's hope that his terminal illness can be cured.
But gradually, he realizes something is wrong. The kind people helping him may not be human at all?

After the supernatural returned, the earth beneath people's feet, the mountains, and the rivers all came to life. In terror, people realized the world was on the brink of destruction.
They tried to save the world but couldn't find a way, until one day, people across Shenzhou all had the same dream:
The world was doomed, the great tower was about to fall, and a man stood at the edge of the world, raising a hand to hold up the pillars of the Nine Provinces.
He looked back once, then leapt down.
Time reversed, and the world began anew.
At last, people realized what was missing from the world:
Their dragon vein had vanished!
Everyone awoke from the dream and began searching for the missing dragon vein, only to discover that their divine master had no memory of anything and was also terminally ill!
No, no! Their dragon vein can't be left all alone!
They have to feed him until he's plump and protect him!

Qi Ling has a secret: he has met that silver-haired, golden-eyed neighbor, noble and aloof, before.
The first time, the man personally left him, still a baby, at an orphanage.
The second time, when Qi Ling was a child, he rescued his badly injured neighbor. The neighbor said he'd take him away, but never came back.
Qi Ling's young heart was betrayed. He wanted to get a little revenge on Xuyao, but discovered that Xuyao didn't remember him at all.
A divine spirit born to show mercy and save the world forgetting him is only natural.
Qi Ling tries to comfort himself, but one day he is astonished to discover that Xuyao has a crush on him.
...???
Is that right?

As the head and backbone of the dragon vein, Kunlun Mountain has been Xuyao's companion ever since his birth.
Their souls and flesh are intertwined, and Xuyao thinks he and Qi Ling have been an old married couple for ages.
Qi Ling: "...Is that so?"
Xuyao: "Wait... we're not?"
