Wei  Zhong opened his eyes to the soft rustle of spirit grass beneath a pale morning sky and realized he’d been born into a frail, withering body. Three days. That was all the time he had. Yet a quiet certainty settled in his chest. He carried a forbidden gift: the Art of Temporal Exchange. By giving up a sliver of his hard‑won cultivation, he could roll back his own life, buying precious years. With a steady breath, he relinquished his Eighth‑Layer cultivation and felt ten years’ worth of vitality flood back into his veins. Weaker in his realm, perhaps—but alive in every sense.

For Thyme, a university student wrestling with a profound fear of rejection and a fractured past, life is a constant puzzle. But when an unexpected escape alongside the magnetic, infuriating Meta leads them to a shared, tearful déjà vu at Hua Hin Beach, the puzzle shatters, hinting at a connection that defies explanation and an echo of forgotten emotions. As Thyme is flung through time, jolting between his chaotic present and the perilous underworld of the 1990s, he uncovers a startling revelation: he and Meta were once secretly entwined, their deep bond mysteriously severed by an unseen hand. In the present, Meta stumbles upon his father's hidden secrets: a mysterious notebook and an old telephone. The notebook reveals cryptic pleas from a Meta in the 1990s, desperately urging him to save Thyme from a deadly fate that will unfold in the future, hinting that the timeline itself hangs in the balance, shifting with their actions. Meanwhile, the old telephone, used by Meta in his high school days before a selective amnesia veiled his memories concerning Thyme, becomes a conduit to the past. Through it, the Meta of today unknowingly communicates with the time-traveling Thyme of the past, sparking a hidden relationship that flourishes. Yet, an envious shadow lurks, plotting an accident to separate them, erasing crucial memories and fracturing their bond. Now, caught between the passionate, forbidden romance with a charismatic yet terrifying Mafia heir—the 90s version of Meta—and the undeniable pull towards the Meta of today, whose quiet intensity stirs a forgotten ache in his soul, Thyme faces an agonizing choice. With time, memory, and reality blurring into a dangerous labyrinth, Thyme must not only confront the shadowy forces that conspired to tear them apart but also decide: is the love he feels for two Metas a cruel echo, a fated reunion spanning lifetimes, or something far more complex? Can he reclaim a lost history, or will the very act of remembering shatter his present and all hope for a future?

But as he uncovers the truth of his arrival, Jack realizes he is not just a lost wanderer—he is part of a grander design, one that stretches beyond time itself. With every step, Jack is pursued by a darkness older than the Ice Age itself, a force that hungers for power and will stop at nothing to seize the artifact he unwittingly carries. The Rift, a celestial anomaly that bridges past and future, is closing, and Jack must make an impossible choice: find his way home or alter the fate of a world that is not his own. Battling brutal landscapes, treacherous enemies, and the weight of an inescapable destiny, Jack must face his greatest test—the Final Stand. As the ice cracks and the heavens shudder, the survival of both past and future rests in his hands.

Noah isn’t ordinary — not in the way he thinks, moves, or survives. At just fourteen, he’s already outgrown the world he was born into. With a mind sharpened by grief, secrets, and something colder than ambition, he quietly builds a digital empire under the nose of everyone who thinks he’s just a quiet kid in the back row. Behind closed doors, he commands RAI — an AI system he engineered — and infiltrates layers of classified networks, tracing shadows tied to the one truth he can’t let go: The people who murdered his parents never disappeared. Now they wear suits, run covert syndicates, and call their plans "containment." When a quiet alliance forms between Noah and a powerful organization, he becomes their weapon — precise, untraceable, and far more dangerous than they realize. But his strike against the global syndicate known as the Mark of Serpent is only the beginning. As Noah digs deeper, he’s forced to choose between strategy and sentiment. The friends who stand beside him grow suspicious of the silence he’s wrapped himself in. His grandfather — the only adult who still sees the boy behind the brilliance — senses something shifting. And as the truth creeps closer, the question rises: What happens when the only person holding the line between order and chaos is a child no longer certain which side he’s on? Well… you’ll see.
