This is crazy! I'm just a menial disciple, so how did I end up keeping a reclusive ancestor under house arrest?
[Strong female lead turns dark + mutual salvation + misunderstanding over a recording stone + insecure, devoted puppy]
Frost Li, the coldest ancestor in the three-hundred-year history of the Hanyue Sect, was ambushed while attempting to enter the Divine Transformation realm. She lost all her cultivation and became a mortal.
When she woke up, she found herself "under house arrest" in the back mountain, held by a menial disciple.
"Shuang'er, it's time for your medicine." Chu Chen carried over a bowl of hot porridge, smiling as harmlessly as could be.
Frost Li: "..."
She was an esteemed ancestor who had survived the Tribulation Transcendence realm. When had she ever suffered such indignity?
But gradually, she realized there was something strange about this foolish disciple.
He was covered in wounds from hunting beasts to make her meat soup.
He nearly died looking for cold-relief powder for her.
And the first time he called her "Shuang'er," it melted the heart she had kept frozen for three hundred years...
Until one day, Senior Sister Luo Qingyi took out a recording stone.
The footage showed Frost Li losing control and hurting someone after being provoked, her every word cutting to the bone.
After watching it, Chu Chen silently walked away.
Frost Li tried to explain, but only made things worse.
She didn't know that Luo Qingyi had secretly hidden the latter half of the recording.
It showed the sincerity with which Frost Li had sworn on her three hundred years of dignity to protect Chu Chen.
The misunderstanding erupted, and Chu Chen fled, consumed by his insecurity.
Frost Li broke down alone, took a demonic golden core, fell to the demonic path, and set off in pursuit.
"Chu Chen, you can't escape."
"Three hundred years ago, I was an ancestor revered by everyone. Three hundred years later, I'm a madwoman who turned demonic for you."
