Venus berpikir memiliki ibu tiri sudah cukup buruk baginya, tetapi ketika kebenaran tentang ayahnya yang ternyata juga bukan orang tua kandungnya, hatinya hancur. Siapa orang tuanya? Di mana mereka? Apa sebenarnya yang terjadi pada mendiang ibu kandungnya? Pertanyaan-pertanyaan ini memenuhi benaknya saat dia melayang di Ketiadaan dan Kegelapan. Hatinya setidaknya bisa sedikit membaik ketika dia tiba di Bumi Kedua, dimensi lain dari dunia aslinya, dan bertemu teman baru. Namun, semuanya terulang lagi. Dewa Kebencian mengklaim Venus sebagai keturunannya, memberikan saran kepada seluruh Dasina untuk menghukumnya. Semua itu masih belum cukup membingungkan ketika kebenaran lain menghantamnya, membuatnya meragukan kebaikan yang selalu dia pegang. Apa yang harus dia lakukan? Menyerah pada sang Kematian, atau melepaskan amarahnya untuk memperjuangkan hidup? Karena ketika dia mengetahui siapa orang tuanya dan bahwa salah satu temannya hanyalah seorang pengkhianat, serta fakta bahwa seluruh negeri membencinya dan menginginkan kematiannya, hatinya menjadi kelabu. Venus, dalam kebingungan yang terkubur dalam awan kemarahan, membuat keputusan yang menurutnya terbaik untuk dirinya sendiri. "Apa yang mereka sebut tentangku, biarlah itu menjadi kenyataan. Biar aku menyambut kalian, sayang, biarkan aku menyambut kalian."

Goosebumps ran across my skin at the dangerous nearness. I could feel his hot breath on my lips, the heat of his half-bare body, and that intoxicating scent I knew too well. Our breathing came ragged, as if we had just finished running a marathon, unable to break free from the magnetic pull of each other’s gaze. “No one else dares—only me, Prepedollie!” the scoundrel growled, gripping me firmly by the tail and yanking my face closer to his as his eyes devoured me. “I warned you—once I found you, there would be no mercy!”

“I love you, Venus. But… it would be better if we divorced.” Venus Andalusia never imagined that her one-year marriage to Jupiter Shaw would end on the very night that should have been the happiest of her life—the night she discovered she was pregnant. Instead of an embrace filled with happiness, she was handed divorce papers. Jupiter couldn’t forgive what had happened in the past. And Venus had no choice but to accept his decision. She didn’t want to remain by his side while carrying a love that hurt like this—heavy, unreciprocated, and slowly breaking her. “Whatever you choose, Jupiter,” Venus said softly, “I’ll leave. Because I don’t think I could survive being in your place either.” But before she truly walked away, she asked for two weeks. Two weeks for Jupiter to relive the journey of how they had fallen in love—watching movies together, spending an entire day at an amusement park, watching the sunset on his private beach. Two weeks to remember them. Tragically, it wasn’t the past that shattered—it was Jupiter himself who ended up destroying his own life all over again. Venus was hurt while protecting the very man who wanted to divorce her. And before her wounds could heal, the world condemned her, labeling her unworthy to stand beside Jupiter. All because of her past. It only convinced Venus further that she didn’t belong at his side. As if that weren’t enough, Jupiter’s former lover appeared—bringing a child with her. Venus chose to disappear. She signed the divorce papers, walked away with her love… and with the child born from that love. When fate brought them together again, only one question remained: Was a wounded love still worth it?

​Ji Yun (孤云 - Awan Sendirian) lahir dengan noda yang disebut 'Tanda Sanghyang'—sebuah kutukan yang membuat Akar Spiritualnya lumpuh dan memberinya batas hidup kultivasi yang singkat. Ia adalah yang terbuang dari Sekte Pedang Gerbang Utara, yang hanya menganggapnya sebagai pelayan, bukan murid. Di dunia Xianxia yang didominasi oleh kekuasaan dan tingkat kultivasi, kelemahan ini adalah hukuman mati. Dalam upaya putus asa untuk memperpanjang hidupnya (Ticking Clock), Ji Yun menemukan warisan tak terduga: sisa-sisa kesadaran seorang alkemis kuno yang pernah dikutuk oleh Kaisar Surgawi karena menentang Dao Agung. Alkemis ini mewariskan kepadanya pengetahuan terlarang: seni kultivasi Primal Qi yang melampaui energi Qi normal dan filosofi Taois kuno tentang penyempurnaan tiga harta: Jing (Esensi), Qi (Energi), dan Shen (Roh). ​Perjalanan Ji Yun dimulai bukan hanya untuk mencari kekuatan, tetapi untuk mencari kebenaran di balik kutukannya. Ia menemukan bahwa leluhurnya dituduh mencuri fragmen dari Sembilan Kuali Surga (Tripods of the Firmament)—artefak kuno yang mampu mengontrol energi kosmik Tiga Alam. ​Dipaksa untuk meninggalkan sektenya dan melarikan diri dari pengejaran Sekte Naga Giok (yang secara diam-diam bekerja untuk Surga), Ji Yun harus menaiki Tangga Kultivasi dengan kecepatan yang menakutkan, mengatasi Turnamen Regional dan menjelajahi Gua Warisan kuno. Ia berkonflik dengan Kaisar Surgawi dan birokrasi langit, yang memandang semua kultivator sebagai subjek yang harus tunduk pada Wu Wei (Non-Tindakan) mereka sendiri. Ji Yun harus memilih: menerima takdirnya dan mati damai sesuai Mandat Langit, atau menentang seluruh tatanan kosmik untuk menulis ulang Dao (Jalur) miliknya sendiri.
