In her previous life, Su Wan watched as her brother Su Chen was used as a surgical “practice subject” by his beloved, Gu Yan, and Gu Yan’s childhood sweetheart, Lin Weiwei. They even threatened to stop his treatment unless Su Wan signed a letter of forgiveness.
After she gave in, Gu Yan went to comfort the “frightened” Lin Weiwei, leaving Su Wan to watch helplessly as her brother died in agony.
Despairing, she slit her wrists at his grave and somehow ended up in the world of cultivation.
To bring her brother back to life, she struggled for three hundred years in the cultivation world, advancing from Foundation Establishment all the way to the Great Ascension realm. At last, she faced the tribulation lightning that would let her ascend. But the ninth bolt didn’t make her an immortal. Instead, it hurled her back to the modern world, right into the hospital room where Gu Yan was forcing her to sign. Her brother was still breathing!
She first cast a time-stopping spell to make sure this wasn’t a demonic illusion, then used her divine sense to find Lin Weiwei gloating in the parking lot. She even discovered harmful ingredients in her brother’s medication.
Once she was sure she had truly returned, she took the Nine-Turn Soul-Returning Pill she had spent three hundred years refining from her storage ring and gave it to her brother. Seeing color return to his face, she cast a harmless sleep spell to let him rest.
Turning toward the frozen Gu Yan, Su Wan’s eyes held nothing but ice. The debt from her previous life and three hundred years of suffering: in this life, she would protect her brother, then make Gu Yan and Lin Weiwei repay every last bit, with interest!
