Before the Flowers Fall, I Bid You Farewell

A gentle, compassionate male physician who heals the sick x a carefree female swordswoman with an innocent heart

Xu Yaojun grew up following her master. Her sect was deep in the mountains, cut off from the world.

Longing for the bustle of the outside world, she bid farewell to her sect.

She traveled east, passing through a small town ravaged by an epidemic, getting caught up in a borderland consumed by war, and trapped in a desperate place where people could barely survive.

They say heroes rise in troubled times.

Yet after all she had endured, Xu Yaojun's innocent heart remained unchanged.

In the end, she simply wasn't cut out to be a hero.

Her sword's gleaming edge reflected the moonlight. Her figure was half-hidden in the hazy night as she sneered, "Swords should have given me freedom, but now they stand in my way."

Above the crowd, she swung her sword and cut down the token, then rode off at full gallop.

Later, she returned to the little town where it had all begun, only to discover that the gentle, taciturn physician had been waiting for her all along.

"Little doctor, you save lives, and I uphold justice. How about we stay here together and protect this town?"

The physician put away the angelica root on his desk. Perhaps the long wait had left him eager to answer; he replied at once, "That would be wonderful."

"I traveled across a desolate world and saw the fickleness of human nature in every season. Only then did I realize that all the wonders of this world pale beside our first meeting."

"Thankfully, we can always meet again at just the right time."
