She is the most feared assassin in modern China, the master of the Ghost Healer Pavilion: Xia Xingheng. Peerless in both medicine and poison, she can bring the dead back to life and restore flesh to bone with a single silver needle. If the King of Hell says someone must die at the third watch, she can keep them alive until the fifth.
After transmigrating, she becomes the sixth young lady of the Xia family, the foremost of the four great families in the Star-Moon Kingdom, where everyone can bully her. Who would have thought that behind the peaceful facade of the household, all was not as it seemed?
Her gentle stepmother showers her with praise only to set her up for a fall;
Her considerate sisters secretly plot to ruin her face;
The servants take their cue from whoever is in power and torment her at every turn;
Born with a useless constitution, she cannot cultivate, and the Crown Prince breaks off their engagement...
But is she afraid?
Watch as she turns the world upside down and cuts a path through the chaos.
They mock her for being stupid? An ancient divine artifact binds itself to her!
They mock her for being ugly? She breaks her seal, revealing peerless beauty that dazzles the world!
They laugh at her for being a good-for-nothing who can’t cultivate? She effortlessly masters god-tier techniques, alchemy, artifact forging, formations, beast taming, talismans, and puppetry. Just as life is going her way, she rescues a clingy tagalong.
He is the lord of the Demon Realm, an alluring beauty with ruthless methods, feared by cultivators across the land. His name is enough to silence a crying child, yet he has taken a special interest in the little one who saved him.
The wicked emperor secretly and gingerly tugs at the Ghost Healer’s sleeve. “Little thing, you saw my body, so you have to take responsibility for me.”
Xia Xingheng: “Dream on.”
The wicked emperor says fondly, “Then I’ll take responsibility for you.”
