When Liu Shao was 8 years old she met a mysterious immortal who granted her three days of perfect happiness in exchange for permission to change her fate in 10 years time. She grows up as a happy, carefree heiress, with a yearning to meet the immortal again.
At 18, Liu Shao's life is endangered when the demoness Ao Hen tries to steal her spiritual essence. She is rescued by Lu Li, a handsome young cultivator with high spiritual powers, who looks exactly like the immortal from Lui Shao's past and who only has half a heart.
Liu Shao and Lu Li fall in love, but it soon becomes apparent that their spiritual essences conflict and causes harm to the other. When Lu Li protects Liu Shao and the mortal realm with his life, high immortal Luo Ge emerges from his long seclusion. He looks exactly like Lu Li, and bears the other half of his heart, but to Liu Shao's grief, Luo Ge does not appear to bear Lu Li's memories or his love for her. Or does he?
Meanwhile, all is not well, as an evil force sealed within the ancient four seasons monument is in danger of breaking out and destroying the world, and that force is inextricably linked with Luo Ge.
The fate of the three realms rests on Luo Ge and Liu Shao as the significance of Liu Shao's childhood pact with the mysterious immortal is revealed...

First thoughts:
🐼: It's been a long time since I've seen Zhang Bin Bin in a historical drama, and I have always through the man is perfect for that aesthetic. Giving this a go because the drama is full of eye candy (not only Zhang Bin Bin, but Wang You Shuo as He Na, the gentle demon king in white, and Wang Yi Lun as his little brother A Fu)... 😍
