Appreciating New Tea with an Inkstone

It is known throughout the Three Realms that the Divine Lord Zhuoqing and the Demon Emperor were once close friends. However, just before the great war between gods and demons, rumors spread that Zhuoqing personally slew the Demon Emperor, shocking all Three Realms. A thousand years ago, Ye Qinming loved Zhuoqing deeply, but a thousand years later, her love turned into hatred. Only in the end did she realize that the person Zhuoqing had wronged the most was not her, but herself. Gu Xiyan: “Qinming, what kind of tea are you?” Ye Qinming: “Your nose is so sharp, can’t you figure it out yourself?” Gu Xiyan: “Black tea?” Ye Qinming: “Brew it and you’ll know.” From then on, they washed inkstones with tea and brewed tea with stream water. (T/N: This sentence is a wordplay of the combination of their names. 溪砚 xīyàn meaning “stream” and “inkstone”, 沁茗 qìnmíng meaning “to brew” and “young leaves of tea”) “Compassionate to all, yet loving you the most.” This is a tale of past and present lives, featuring a blind yet perceptive white lotus god with a keen nose, a clever mind, and sharp ears, and a tsundere green tea demon emperor who talks tough but acts tender. (T/N: “Appreciating tea with inkstone” refers to a leisure activity practiced by nobles in ancient times. It involves drinking tea while engaging in literary pursuits such as painting or composing poetry, which require the use of a brush and ink)
