Ji Yunxi, princess of the Xuanyuan royal house, possessed the bloodline of the Mysterious Maiden and extraordinary talent.
In her previous life, she was naive and easily manipulated at every turn.
In the end, she died horribly at the hands of her closest younger sister, while her entire Ji family was slaughtered.
Then she was reborn.
With the Nianyun Sword in hand, she devoted herself to mastering spiritual arts, kept a low profile, and bided her time.
She gathered spirit beasts, wielded spirit swords, and cut down powerful foes along the way.
Given a second life, this time she would protect those around her.
Feng Xingzhi, the only prince of the Southern Yan Kingdom, was peerlessly elegant and possessed supreme cultivation talent.
He was frail and pretended to be a fool while hiding his true strength. Everyone mocked him as a cripple.
Only she stood before him.
“Stay behind me. I will protect you from everything in this world.”
He smiled serenely, and the mountains and rivers paled before him. Lowering his eyes, he drew her into his arms and whispered by her ear,
“You protect everyone else. I’ll protect you.”
