There are two female leads because both protagonists are women! [The heroine has no romantic pairing!] [Political intrigue and cultivation] [A battle against the Heavenly Dao] Some scenes are rather gory, so don't read if you can't handle that.
She was a cultivator being hunted. Gravely wounded, she accidentally took refuge inside the body of the Fourth Miss, who had hanged herself at the prince's manor.
When she opened her eyes, rebel forces were attacking the city. The prince had fled with his wives, concubines, children, and fortune, leaving the people to surround the manor and make Li Buhui, the poor scapegoat abandoned by everyone, pay for it.
Li Buhui is not someone who transmigrated. She was supposed to be a runaway clanswoman who left a secret realm, was gravely wounded and rescued, fell in love at first sight with her savior, bore a highly gifted child, and died.
A strange man who liked to dress as a beggar saw through the fact that this world was an absurd novel. Unwilling to become a stepping stone in the story, he decided to make trouble for the Heavenly Dao.
He acknowledged Li Buhui as his adopted daughter and gave her a protective lock, helping her escape the secret realm unharmed. But the person who should have been her savior sealed her memories, destroyed her cultivation, and took her back to the clan.
After several years of living in a daze, the moment a fragment of the protective lock pierced her palm, Li Buhui finally saw the deadly game in which all living beings were pieces on a chessboard.
After regaining her memories, Li Buhui gave vent to her fury by awakening a ghost infant and slaughtering the entire clan. As a result, she was hunted down.
As it happened, the place chosen by Li Buhui, now reduced to a spirit, was where her son was supposed to appear in the book: the home of the guy who was supposed to be the protagonist.
Ha! The protagonist? I'm the protagonist's mother!
All living beings shouldn't be mere ink stains in a story, and women are no footnotes!
The Grand Princess? That woman destined to become the protagonist's sidekick? Just one of his romantic encounters? Could someone so proud and arrogant, who sees men as playthings, really be content to become someone else's plaything?
