share time: 2026-01-10 06:00:19

Li, a Moon Clan girl, descends to the mortal world with the "Moon-Burning Curse," vowing to burn the moon to avenge her clan—massacred by humans a century ago for being labeled "evil" due to their ability to read stars and alter fates. When she sneaks into the Moon-Guard Pavilion to cast the curse, she’s caught by Lu Zhaoye, the young pavilion master who’s guarded the moon for twenty years. He’s never met someone so "recklessly determined": she leaves him medicine when he’s hurt, tears up at the remains of the Moon God Tree, and even uses her soul fire to shield him from the curse’s backlash. Just as Li reaches the moon’s core, Lu pulls out a century-old scroll—revealing the massacre was ordered by a Moon Clan traitor, and the pavilion was actually sent by the Moon God to protect them. Torn between deep-seated hatred and a warming heart, Li stares at the moon, wondering if what she’s really trying to burn is the moon… or the hatred consuming her.
