[Blurb]:
Shen Guanlan, master of the Twelve Jade Towers, was blessed with ethereal beauty and born with the bones of an immortal. Everyone said that immortals were free of love and desire.
But he had a secret: he loved a girl whose smile was like a crescent moon.
Xin Xin, the fiancée of Fu Yunshi of Hongmeng Mountain.
But the moon shone on a ditch, and all he could do was hold back, endure, and watch.
Until one day, news spread through the streets and alleys that Fu Yunshi was engaged to a woman from one of the great families of the Upper Realm.
For the first time, Shen Guanlan couldn't hold back. He went to Hongmeng Mountain just to catch a glimpse of the girl.
Just as he expected, the girl was gaunt, and her crescent-shaped eyes had been blinded by crying.
Two days later, she passed away.
Shen Guanlan's hair turned white overnight, and he slaughtered everyone in Yunting Cave. Then, in the blink of an eye, he was back on the day he first met Xin Xin.
The girl smiled brightly as she trailed behind the aloof young man, sharing amusing stories about their fellow disciples. Though the boy's expression was cold, a smile played at his lips.
The sight was an unbearable thorn in Shen Guanlan's eyes.
He clenched his fist until his knuckles turned white, then pretended to be weak and collapsed on the path the two were walking along.
Sure enough, the kindhearted girl turned all her attention to him.
For the first time, Shen Guanlan savored the smug pleasure of getting his way. In this life, he would make the moon shine on his pond.

As the daughter of Hongmeng Mountain's sect master, Xin Xin wasn't especially gifted at cultivation. Her elderly father poured his heart and soul into training Fu Yunshi, hoping someone would be there to care for Xin Xin after he was gone.
Fortunately, his hopes were fulfilled. Xin Xin and Fu Yunshi were childhood friends, growing up together in perfect harmony.
Fu Yunshi knew the old sect master's intentions, and he was rather pleased with himself.
He thought Xin Xin would never leave him.
But one day, with snow blanketing the mountains and the moonlight faint, he saw the girl who had always followed him passionately kissing her senior brother.
*
Xin Xin loved Fu Yunshi. She had loved him since childhood.
She thought her heart and eyes would always belong to him.
But lately, she'd realized she was being a little shameless.
It seemed she might... have fallen for someone else...
