Liuli was taken in as a disciple by Immortal Lord Yanchen when she was young, all because her face closely resembled that of his beloved Qingyao.
For a thousand years, they were together day and night. She laid her whole heart before her master, willing to be a shadow in the mirror, willing to be someone else's substitute.
She swallowed every rumor and disapproving glance from across the Three Realms, always hoping that one day she might thaw his frozen heart.
But when Qingyao returned from the dead and came back to the Ninth Heaven, all her beautiful dreams shattered.
Framed, slandered, and harshly punished, she watched Yanchen believe every lie and personally cast her down from the Immortal Execution Platform.
After narrowly surviving, her soul shattered. Three lifetimes of mortal tribulations wore away every trace of her infatuation.
When Liuli returned once more, she shed her meekness and timidity. Her innate spiritual constitution awakened, and with the Mirror of Guixu in hand, she uncovered a shocking conspiracy that had lasted ten thousand years.
It turned out she had never been imitating Qingyao. The celebrated beloved had stolen her spiritual essence and destined fate.
The truth came to light in the Hall of the Celestial Emperor. The false face was torn away, and those who deserved punishment fell into the depths of hell.
The once lofty Immortal Lord cast aside his glory, demoted himself, and traveled across the four seas and eight wastelands in desperate pursuit of her, consumed by endless regret.
But the heart that had once burned so brightly had long since gone cold in the fires of three lifetimes of tribulation.
All that came before was a trial. Love and hate returned to nothing. The mountains and seas stretched far and wide, and from then on, their paths would never cross again.
So beautiful, very good, very beautiful👀
