[Exile Survival x Evolution of All Things x Farming and Management x Beast Taming x Female Romance]
The entire family was stripped of their possessions and exiled to the northern frontier.
When Ji He opened her eyes, all that remained was a broken prison wagon, half a bag of moldy grain, and a ruined snowbound city that even the imperial court was ready to abandon.
Everyone thought her family wouldn't survive the winter.
Until Ji He discovered that she could see the hidden evolutionary paths of all things.
A sick horse no one wanted:
[Hidden bloodline: Blazing Steed.]
Wild wheat frozen to death in the ground:
[Can be cultivated: Frost Wheat, able to grow even in extreme cold.]
A white fox spirit rescued from the snow:
[Hidden bloodline: Nine-Tailed Fox.]
Others were exiled and fought for a scrap of food in the northern frontier.
Ji He was exiled and grew crops, raised spirits, did business, and built a city, turning one unwanted "useless thing" after another into treasures everyone fought over.
By the time the imperial court finally remembered Blackstone City, the once-doomed ruin was bustling with merchant caravans. Blazing warhorses raced across the snowfields, and spirit beasts stood guard atop the city walls.
But once she had made the city self-sufficient, Ji He ran into a new problem.
The female general guarding the city laid her spear across the doorway.
"Where are you going tonight?"
The white-haired fox spirit lounged on her bed, her tail already wrapped around Ji He's waist.
"Obviously, you're staying with me."
Ji He fell silent.
At first, she really had only wanted to survive.
