"Above Takamagahara, there is an unreachable god..."
"Please have mercy on this body, like a lonely boat drifting in the endless sea."
"Please use the flame of silence to illuminate the dark path I am traveling on."
Kujo Chiyo prayed devoutly, fingertips gliding across the cold water.
She did not travel through time, but was ordered by her teacher to cross the ocean to fulfill an ancient contract and become the nominal "wife" of the wealthy Gu family.
She thought this was a path of meditation guided by gods to purify herself of worldly worries.
However, what awaits her is not the peace described in the contract.
It's the cold and scrutinizing gaze of her husband Gu Yunshen, it's the smear scandal that the entire Internet has accused him of being a "scheming villain", and it's the dismissive ridicule and exclusion from the wealthy circle.
She is like a real lone boat, silently performing her duties in the turbulent waves full of malice, guarding those who need protection, but no one knows where she comes from and why she comes.
When the cursed evil thing entangles my sister-in-law, when the vicious plan affects the family, when the people she protects are in danger...
She finally stood up slowly and took off her low-key disguise.
The ethereal Kagura bells rang through the quiet night, the ancient blessing words were chanted, and the whole body was shimmering with a divine light - at that moment, everyone was shocked:
What kind of existence are they wantonly mocking?
With her mortal body, she carries the divine will, and a single word can determine the calamity of life and death.
The top actress prostrates herself in gratitude, the business tycoon bows down to seek an audience with her, and the wealthy family that once abandoned her like a pair of worn-out shoes now treats her like a god.
