A Mortal Life, If Cultivated to Immortality

[Strong Female Lead] [Feel-Good Story] [No Romance] [No System] [No Over-the-Top Drama] [No Heartbreak] [Fantasy] [Subverting Expectations]

I'm a girl from Qingxi Village. My parents are open-minded, and my childhood friend Liu A Mao does nothing but follow me around. My days are spent catching fish by the stream, running through the fields, and napping under trees. Then immortals come to test our spiritual roots. I test as having three spiritual roots and am taken to Yunshui Sect.

At the sect, I meet my talkative, lovable roommate, Tao Xiaoshu, and settle into a routine of morning cultivation, afternoon sword practice, and evening meditation. There's no bullying, no mockery, no villains. Everyone has their own pace, and I take things slowly, without forcing anything or rushing.

But for some reason, my fellow disciples always gather around me when they practice. The senior sisters look at me with particular warmth, and even the sect leader favors me. And my childhood friend, who grew up with me and agreed we'd only ever be friends, keeps looking my way.

All I want is to be an ordinary outer-sect disciple and cultivate in peace.

But this world doesn't seem willing to let me stay ordinary.
