The Empress Weeps: She Sent Away the One She Loved Most

Su Yin transmigrates to the Tianxuan Continent and becomes the son of Su Qian, the Duke Who Guards the Nation of the Great Shang. He is betrothed as a child to Princess Shang Zhengyue. Princess Zhengyue has peerless talent in martial arts. At just eighteen, she reaches the Martial Emperor realm, overpowers the court, and proclaims herself emperor. Su Yin thinks his life is about to reach its peak. But on the day the Empress ascends the throne, a cup of muddy wine robs him of his innocence, and ten years of childhood affection come to nothing. “By order of the Empress: Su Yin, son of the Duke Who Guards the Nation, has failed to uphold the virtues expected of a man. His former engagement is annulled, and he is stripped of his status and made a commoner.” The next day, Su Qian takes the blame of his own accord, resigning as marshal on the grounds that he failed to raise his son properly. In an instant, Su Yin and the Su family become the biggest laughingstock in the Great Shang Dynasty. Su Qian sighs. “Yin’er, it was my great power that brought this upon you.” Su Yin shakes his head. “It has nothing to do with you, Father. My talent in martial arts simply isn’t worthy of Her Majesty the Empress.” How could Su Yin fail to see that Shang Zhengyue has the potential to become a Martial Emperor, and may live for ten thousand years? He isn’t even a Martial Disciple. How could he possibly be worthy of an Empress in the Martial Emperor realm? At that moment, he sees through everything and lets it all go. An ineffable aura begins to surround him. “Misfortune is what good fortune leans on. By seeing through this trial of love, I’ve actually broken through to the Golden Core stage.” Su Yin has been hiding his identity as a cultivator all along! “Forget it. If I can’t become the Empress’s husband, I’ll be my own carefree immortal.” Years later, in the lonely imperial palace, Shang Zhengyue watches the woman nestled in Su Yin’s arms, weeping until tears stream down her face. She has given away the man she loved most!
