On the day the Great Yao Dynasty fell, Zhao Ninghui, the legitimate princess, leapt from the city wall, believing she had at last died for her family and country.
When she opened her eyes again, she had fallen into a bizarre infinite world known as the "Gate Domains."
Metal corridors, blood-red instances, sinister monsters howling in rage, strangers who called themselves "players"...
Everyone took her for a fragile porcelain vase in ancient clothes, pale-faced and liable to break at a touch. Even Lu Shiyan, a veteran team captain, instinctively shielded her behind him, hoping only that she would survive the beginner instance.
Until...
As a rotting corpse nurse lunged at her, her white robes swept through the air, her soft sword left its sheath, and one slash destroyed the evil spirit;
In a sealed chamber locked by mechanisms, she drew on her knowledge of ancient texts to discern the balance of yin and yang. With a light touch, she lit a lamp and broke the deadly impasse;
Before a BOSS overflowing with resentment, she remained calm and used her inner power to clear the spirit's fixation. She even delivered the vengeful ghost to the afterlife, earning an S-rank evaluation in the beginner instance.
Only then did everyone realize:
This fallen princess, who looked timid and even spoke in a soft voice,
was no burden in need of protection at all.
She was a royal swordswoman who had emerged from mountains of corpses and seas of blood, a top-tier fighter skilled in political intrigue and the ways of yin and yang, able to break formations and slay evil spirits.
Later, a saying spread through the Gate Domains:
Don't mess with the girl in ancient clothes from the Guixu team.
She may look delicate and fragile, but one sword strike can split open the ceiling of an instance.
Looking at the girl beside him, whose ears blushed easily but who always stepped in front of him, Lu Shiyan chuckled softly:
"Once, you protected your family and country. From now on, I'll protect you."
Zhao Ninghui looked up, his figure reflected in her eyes, and answered softly:
"All right."
The pain of losing her country and the dangers of another world were all transformed because of one person.
From a princess of the inner palace, she fought her way to become the most dazzling figure in infinite instances
