My master is the martial world’s most silver-tongued swindler, making his living by talking his way into one scam after another.
Su Qingyuan travels from town to town with him, earning a living at their stall. To outsiders, she’s just an unremarkable little apprentice.
No one knows that within her mortal body sleeps the remnant soul of the Nine Heavens Immortal Venerable Xuan Yuan, fallen ten thousand years ago.
To earn merit and mend her soul, she has no choice but to quietly clean up after her master, resolving one sinister mystery after another.
Luckily, the snow-blue kitten in her arms never leaves her side. It is Qinglan, the ancient spirit-fox demon king, who sealed away its divine powers and stays by her day and night, nourishing her broken immortal soul with the vitality of the mountains and seas. Amid the everyday warmth of mortal life, they keep each other company, day after day.
Another figure has long remained hidden in the dark skies above.
Mo Chen, the Myriad Silence Netherhawk, a primordial Netherworld demon god, was once a kindred spirit who shared her origins as a bird of the heavens.
They fell together when the ancient immortal sects betrayed and ambushed them.
Awakening after ten thousand years, they find a fateful, unsolvable deadlock between them: the Netherworld death aura around him will burn her immortal soul if he comes too close.
He cannot turn into a cuddly pet and stay by her side, reach out to touch her, or spend long hours chatting with her in the same room.
All he can do is wander alone through the endless night, watching over her from afar and cutting down every sinister threat and immortal-sect spy that strikes from the shadows.
The spirit fox shares her meals and seasons, bringing her gentle comfort;
The netherhawk guards her across the darkness, facing every trial alone.
Her deceitful master gives her the affection of family in the mortal world,
The spirit fox gives her tender companionship day after day,
And the netherhawk takes the brunt of the blades aimed at her from across the three realms.
When the immortal sects descend once more to hunt her, the truth of a betrayal buried for ten thousand years slowly comes to light.
The ordinary girl who earns her living at a street stall will one day soar into the heavens with a cry.
But who, if anyone, will stay by her side through this long and fateful journey?
I just started reading it. I was attracted by the beginning. I hope there are no eunuch stories. I will keep following it.
I just watched it for a while, and I feel that the storyline is intertwined, interesting, and quite enjoyable. I will continue to read the follow-up and comment again after reading it!
