Time flew by, and eighteen years passed in a flash. Though our days were simple and hard, Lotus warmed my heart. My daughter grew into a beautiful and talented young woman, stunning all others. Lotus and I fell in love and pledged our lives to each other. One day, I encountered a cultivator who said of my unparalleled talent and wanted to take me as a disciple to pass on his teachings. He said that if I attained enlightenment, the world would be astonished. I had no desire for immortality, only to grow old with Lotus. However, my family was poor and my parents were ill, so I had to become their disciple to repay their kindness. I gave them elixirs and miraculous medicines, and they recovered completely. I followed my master to seek immortality. At our parting, we were heartbroken, vowing never to forget each other, and to return together in immortality. Reluctant to part, the fragrant grass seems to understand my heart. Six years have passed since we parted, night after night I think of you, day after day.

In the end, they die too! The protagonist, Li Yuan 9Reads8.7Score—Shelves

    Banish those cheap, superficial works that are just for a quick thrill, banish those pre-packaged "bubble" novels! My darlings, today I absolutely have to recommend this masterpiece with both male and female leads! It starts with a national war, the protagonist ventures into forbidden territory, meets a little demon girl, and thus begins their "team-up adventure." First, there's the destruction of a city and their escape, then the Muyang City championship competition, followed by a behind-the-scenes manipulator orchestrating a treasure auction. The various factions, like in a game of "Werewolf," engage in a series of conspiracies and schemes, forming powerful alliances for their own interests. Just then, the protagonist's "dream is about to end..." Leaves him completely bewildered, and even more unexpectedly, an "attack" occurs. Facing the oppressive presence of a Golden Core Ancestor, how will this major crisis be resolved? It's absolutely thrilling, making your heart race! Even more impressive is the author's skillful writing, masterfully controlling the transitions between several plot points and bringing over a dozen or so vividly portrayed supporting characters. Family members, don't hesitate, quickly add it to your bookshelf and savor it slowly. Just go for it! The more you read, the more you'll be hooked—it's guaranteed! [Add one to bookshelf]

    Fellow Daoist, retain three parts greed and lust, lest you become detached from worldly affairs. Keep seven parts earnestness, to live a life without shame. Reveal three parts bewilderment and helplessness, concealing yourself from the world's storms and hiding in the dust. Hide seven parts soberness amidst the drunkenness, so that your mind and eyes may clearly see the ways of the world.
