Xu Yizhi, the legitimate daughter of the Defender General in Jiangyuan City, was breathtakingly beautiful, highly skilled in cultivation, well-read, sensible, and talented. Her only flaw was that she could be a little aloof.
The greater good of her country and the welfare of all the people in the world were always on her mind.
Yet this levelheaded woman gradually fell for her junior fellow disciple, Jiang Yue Bai, who loved her too. For his sake, she was willing to live this life again.
At Qingyun Sect, the two brewed tea in spring, cooled off in summer, admired the snow in winter, and kept each other company day after day, sharing their feelings.
Years later, they both became the only Sword Immortals left in the world, putting down the turmoil between immortals and demons and the upheaval of dynastic change.
Once peace returned to the land, demons launched a surprise attack on the eve of their wedding.
Rumors spread far and wide in the aftermath.
“I heard the demons wiped out the entire Jiang family. Sword Immortal Jiang slaughtered the survivors on the spot and nearly fell into demonic corruption.”
“That’s nothing. I heard Sword Immortal Xu disappeared after that. Even Qingyun Sect’s life tablet couldn’t sense where she was.”
“Exactly. If even the life tablet can’t sense her, there’s only one explanation: she’s dead. But Sword Immortal Jiang refuses to believe it. He insists on keeping the position of Peak Master of Hundred Herbs Peak for her, and even took in two disciples on her behalf.”
“How tragic, how tragic...”
