For three hundred years, Yun Wan dutifully played the substitute for the Immortal Venerable's beloved.

Until the day the real beloved came back to life, she cut out half her golden core of her own accord. “I've repaid this debt. From now on, we're even.”

She turned to the Heartless Dao, and no one among the Three Realms could catch her eye again.

“To enter this path, one must sacrifice every sentiment of a lifetime, use worldly ties and karma as kindling, burn away the past, and remake oneself.”

“Cast off the past. Let love and hate fade away.”

The love this world had to offer brought her only pain and exploitation!

Its worldly ties and karma brought her only shackles and chains!

The people on the path to immortality brought her only indifference and contempt!

If that's how it is, then she wants none of it!

She wants absolutely nothing!

“This body… has nothing left to cherish!”

“This heart… turned to ashes long ago!”

“The past… was all an illusion!”

“Love and hate… are nothing but chains!”

“To sever them… is just right!”

“To let them fade… is all I could ask for!”

Later, the Immortal Venerable's eyes were bloodshot, but Yun Wan remained unmoved. She pointed her sword at his heart. “Fellow Daoist, please show some restraint.”

From substitute to the summit, at the end of the Heartless Dao lay the vast sky she had carved out with her own hands.
