A Treasure Is Stolen, and My Junior Sister Faces Peril Down the Mountain

A treasured artifact of her sect has been stolen, and You Sui is ordered down the mountain to find it.

Along the way, she travels through the mortal world and witnesses the tangled loves and hates of countless humans, demons, and ghosts.

Some are trapped in adversity, lying low for years just to kill their enemies with their own hands;

Some ghosts are bound by obsession, yet still hold on to kindness and ask only that life go their way, at least a little;

Some demons hate love all their lives, yet willingly wager a thousand years of cultivation for one person;

At first, You Sui keeps her distance, merely watching as an outsider.

But unseen ties of cause and effect take shape, and calamity cannot be avoided. When she suddenly looks back, she has already fallen deep into the vortex of the mortal world, unable to escape.

Most things in this world are ruled by deep feelings that go unfulfilled, by longing that is never answered, and by helplessness in all its forms.

The treasured artifact remains nowhere in sight, but You Sui's own fate quietly began to unfold the moment she entered the foremost academy in the human realm.
