The water in Zhuohua Pavilion is cold. Hua Yueyue knelt in front of the wooden basin and washed the flower roots for ten years. Everyone told her that women's spiritual roots are inherently dirty and they are only qualified to do the hardest work. She believed it.
Until a drop of blood regenerates a dead flower, and an unconscious hum fills the room with silver light. She was expelled by the elders, but she touched the roots of the ancient tree during her escape - the memory of three hundred years ago suddenly came back to her: she was the reincarnation of the first-generation Queen of Tree Whispers, and she had sealed herself with her own hands.
The truth is far crueler than lies. Back then, she sealed the "Seed of Destruction" into the ancient tree and tightly bound it to the power of women's awakening - awakening is disaster. If any woman approaches the ancient tree, fatal blue tree tears will flow out. She allowed herself to be reincarnated and forgotten from generation to generation, just to make future generations of women mistakenly think that she was "unworthy" and stay away from the ancient tree. She personally oppressed her own kind for three hundred years.
But the awakening has already happened. Hua Yueyue stood on the altar, the golden light in her palm ignited the resonance of the sisters, and the blue venom was spreading from her feet.
The elder asked her: "Have you made up your mind?" - Have you made up your mind to continue sealing everyone, or to sacrifice yourself?
She chose the third path: to graft the three-hundred-year curse into her soul, and use her flesh and blood as a container to carry the poison alone.
Zhuohua Pavilion has been transformed from a hard labor field for washing flower roots into a school that teaches girls "how to bloom". Those palms that were once judged as "dirty" are shining again.
This time, she won't seal anyone anymore. Including herself.
She was once a slave kneeling in the water, and also a queen standing on the top of a tree. Three hundred years later, she will plant the ruins into a garden.
