On the night of the Lantern Festival, beneath a sky blazing with festive lights, the setting sun hung on the horizon in place of the full moon.
From then on, there was no more life-giving rain, no scorching sun, and no change in the world. The apocalypse had arrived.
Guiyun Pavilion stood atop Qingyun Mountain. Though it oversaw the countless affairs of the mortal world, it was also a retreat where immortals could escape from the world.
Its master, Wei Shili, was famous for her cold and unfeeling nature.
To uncover the truth behind the setting sun, she descended the mountain and ventured into the mortal world.
Then she met someone even colder than herself.
The first time Wei Shili met You Nan, she brought a sky full of white flowers. She could never forget the young woman's delicate features and clear, cold gaze.
At the time, she thought she had met her match. Only later did she realize it was a resonance between their souls.

You Nan had never really agreed with Wei Shili's opinion of her.
But Wei Shili didn't know that, on that day when white flowers danced through the air, someone had also become unforgettable to You Nan.
-
Everyone at Guiyun Pavilion knew that Wei Shili, a sword cultivator, carried a sword that no one but her could wield, not even her master.
No one knew who had forged it.
But they also knew that the young woman at the Pavilion Master's side was the second person able to wield that sword.
Wei Shili said that a sword could carry its master's feelings, and anyone who could wield it must be of one heart with its master.
