To avoid marriage, Su Wantang picked several highly skilled men to father her children, slept with them, then ran off without even remembering their faces.
Her second son has dangerously disrupted meridians, and the greatest healer in the land shakes his head. "Only the true qi of his biological father, from the same lineage, can save him."
Su Wantang panics. "What did those men look like again?"
So she travels all over the Jianghu with her three kids in a broken-down horse cart. And then...
Her eldest son displays the martial arts alliance leader's signature technique with a single slash at the alliance headquarters. Leader Gu Changyuan's eyes turn red on the spot. "This child... is he my son?" Su Wantang stares blankly. "Who are you?"
Her second son figures out the Valley Master's poison formula, which had stumped him for three years. Tan Qingya of the Poison Valley smiles tenderly. "Child, call me Daddy." Su Wantang scratches her head. "This guy seems kind of familiar?"
Her little daughter calls every man "Daddy" and rides on the shoulders of the iron-masked armed escort chief while eating candied hawthorn. Lu Yunhe's ears turn bright red, and he won't let go of the child. Su Wantang panics. "She's not yours!"
Worse still, all four men are convinced the children are theirs. They face off in front of her, glaring at one another with their swords at the ready.
Munching on melon seeds, Su Wantang watches the four men, each once a brief lover of hers, face off and glare at one another. She has only one thought: Can you treat my son before you start fighting?
