Luo Tang is the young mistress of the Wuying Sect and the future successor to the heretical path, yet all she wants is to marry a righteous hero famous throughout the realm. So she sets her sights on Wei Qingyuan of Yufeng Manor.
To win Wei Qingyuan over, Luo Tang begs her parents to let her leave the mountain. She conceals her identity and plans a classic hero-saves-beauty encounter. Unfortunately, things go a little awry: the hero who comes to her rescue isn't Wei Qingyuan, but Xie Xuanzhi, the senior disciple of Yufeng Manor.
Who is Xie Xuanzhi? Luo Tang has no idea. She's never heard of him.
That doesn't stop her from switching her target to Xie Xuanzhi. He's simply too handsome. One glimpse is all it takes for Luo Tang to fall for him.
She showers him with concern, checks on him constantly, and looks after his every need.
She's so attentive that even her subordinates can't stand it, and they try to change her mind by listing Xie Xuanzhi's flaws.
“Xie Xuanzhi is a nobody in the martial world. He's no hero.”
“But he's handsome.”
“Xie Xuanzhi has a terrible personality. He barely speaks.”
“But he's handsome.”
“Xie Xuanzhi has a bad temper. All his fellow disciples are terrified of him.”
“But he's handsome.”
Bewitched by his looks, Luo Tang insists that as long as he's handsome, nothing else matters. And who said Xie Xuanzhi has a bad temper? He's clearly the kindest person in the world. No matter how unreasonable she gets, he never loses his temper.
At first, Luo Tang only likes Xie Xuanzhi's face. Later, she discovers that he's a poor, vulnerable soul, and she can't help being a little more tender toward him, then a little more tender still.
Good-looking and good-looking [admiration]
