A dirt-poor bandit woman storms into an immortal sect to rob it, only to run into a thousand-year-old, scheming celestial ancestor.
She gets no money, but walks away with a cultivation manual bound to her for life: abandon it, and she dies!
Other people cultivate immortality through lucky opportunities. Li Ge cultivates by getting cheated.
On the surface, the ancestor is cool, noble, and utterly transcendent. Behind the scenes, he is a master of schemes.
He keeps tabs on her cultivation and whereabouts, and forces her to train, keeping the wild bandit firmly under his thumb.
But no one knows
that all his harshness, schemes, and carefully laid traps
are meant to shield her from a fatal heavenly punishment and reverse her deadly fate.
Everyone pities her for being weak and insignificant. Only the Immortal Venerable dotes on her wild, rebellious nature.
The most ridiculous cultivation journey, and the most unexpected mutual devotion.
When the final tribulation arrives, she finally learns:
this encounter, which began with a scheme, conceals a shocking secret spanning a thousand years. I hope you all enjoy it. Your support is what keeps me writing, and I'll do my best to tell every story well!
