The "white cat" is a deceptive label. On the surface, Chu Wanning is aloof, proud, and impossibly strict—a pristine, untouchable immortal. But beneath that icy exterior lies a man of profound, silent tenderness. He is emotionally constipated to a tragic degree, giving everything for his disciples while ensuring they never know it. His love is sacrificial, quiet, and devastatingly beautiful. He is one of the most beloved and heartbreaking characters in modern danmei.

By the final volume, when Mo Ran finally understands the depth of Chu Wanning’s devotion, and Chu Wanning allows himself to be vulnerable, readers will have cried, raged, and ultimately, believed in the possibility of a second chance. This is not just a love story. It is a requiem for the people we used to be—and a hymn for the people we can become. “In this life, I will chase you, protect you, and love you properly. I will never let you be alone again.” — Mo Ran

But fate is crueler than death. Mo Ran wakes up—not in the afterlife, but . He is once again a 16-year-old disciple at the cultivation sect Sisheng Peak. His bitter enemy, the cold and aloof Yuheng Elder , Chu Wanning, is alive and still his Shizun (master). Mo Ran’s goal is simple: destroy Chu Wanning before Chu Wanning can destroy him.
