The Shen family was wiped out overnight. Her father and brothers were executed, and the women of the family were exiled.
While being escorted into exile, Shen Shuangbai escaped into the Qingya Mountains, only to die in a violent storm.
When she opened her eyes again, she had come back to life.
From then on, the world had one fewer young lady of the Shen family and one more cultivator named Lu Li.
She studied the Dao and trained in cultivation, hoping that one day she could uncover the truth behind the Shen family's downfall.
Until, little by little, she began to discover the truth.
Her father, Shen Yuan, had once been a cultivator himself.
And the Shen family's destruction was far more complicated than a mere “plot to overthrow the throne.”
Beyond the imperial court lay the mystic sects, and above them stood the Twelve Orthodox Sects.
The person who had truly wanted the Shen family erased all those years ago might be hiding among them.
