I'm Ling Shuang. I should have been a cultivation prodigy, but at the Foundation Establishment ceremony, my own sister, Ling Xi, drained my spiritual power and made me the laughingstock of the sect.
The Heavenly Dao decreed that we would be twin stars, one primary and one secondary. She was the star of destiny, while I was destined to be plundered. A black fate-lock bound our pain together: every time she advanced, my meridians shattered.
But who could have guessed that, on the brink of death, mysterious golden threads would emerge from my fingertips, able to devour spiritual power and defy the Heavenly Dao!
“If Heaven takes from me, I'll take from Heaven!” From then on, a battle-crazed warrior awakened. Anyone who bullied, humiliated, or harmed me was strangled by my golden threads!
And my “guilty, devoted dog” of a sister, who had stepped on me to advance, had a burning red mark on her wrist linked to my pain. Forced to act by the rules of the Heavenly Dao, she was secretly trying to atone for me.
We fought side by side against the Corpse King in the Netherworld Cave, uncovered the truth behind our pact in the Guixu, and stood against high-ranking immortals in the Immortal Realm to save me. It turned out our so-called fate was nothing but a hoax fabricated by the Celestial Emperor!
When the black fate-lock became a golden bond of shared life, and the battle-crazed warrior and the atoning, tender-hearted girl joined forces, frost and flame burned as one, defying the path to immortality and breaking the Heavenly Dao!
“Sis, I protected you before. Now it's my turn to help you atone.” “No, we're bound to live together. We'll defy Heaven and change our fate!” From then on, the twin lock wound around their bones, frost and flame rang across heaven and earth, and no one could ever separate them again!
It's so addictive! Every character the author creates is so touching. The sisterhood between Ling Shuang and Ling Xi is not the clichéd kind of sisterly affection; it is a mutual protection that has been hidden for more than ten years. They are clearly in excruciating pain, but they still keep it from each other, which makes people's noses tingle.
