   Spring has arrived, flowers are in bloom, and all things are reviving. The cultivation world welcomes its annual sect selection. At the foot of the rolling green mountains, crowds throng, their noise rising and falling. However, a sickly-looking girl in the crowd draws particular attention. Her name is Lin Du, a relationship blogger known for her sharp and incisive style in the modern world, who has unexpectedly transmigrated to the cultivation world. She thought she was just an ordinary "sickly girl," but unexpectedly, during the spiritual root test, her pale, slender hand touched a spiritual artifact, and it shone brightly—a rare, fully-valued ice spiritual root! Such talent is enough to make any sect drool. But she knows that her frail body could collapse at any moment; she only has one day left to live. "According to the usual tropes of cultivation novels, spiritual energy can prolong life, right?" Lin Du smiled bitterly as she stepped onto the stone steps leading to the mountaintop. She didn't know whether what awaited her was opportunity or crisis, but she knew she had to seize this last chance to reverse her fate. This is a cultivation journey about a girl with an ice-elemental spiritual root, and also a story of a transmigrator struggling to survive and defying fate in a strange world. Can she break through her physical limits with her wisdom and talent and become a rising star in the cultivation world? Or will she discover more hidden secrets on her path of cultivation?

   "I only hope that in this Sword Pavilion, he will only hate me in the future." He casually pulled a decorative peach blossom branch from a vase beside him. The branch was slender and graceful, with even a few scattered peach blossoms on it, beautiful and delicate. "I will use this as my sword to duel with you..." "If even one peach blossom falls from this branch during the duel, you will win." He didn't wield a sword, but a flower. Applause immediately erupted from all directions, and the crowd stood up and exclaimed, "A banished immortal!" "Regret? What's the use of regret?" Can regret bring someone back to life? "Of course it's cold, after all, it's in the north." Snow was falling all around, it was indeed very cold... Death wasn't scary, Yan Nanxu had never been afraid, anyway, he had no ties in that world, but... There were a few people he had to settle accounts with, one by one, and even if he went to hell, he would drag them down with him! "Once he becomes the Supreme One, he can naturally have his wishes fulfilled, but... The joy he felt eating a piece of candy as a child and the feeling he gets from eating a piece of candy as an adult will probably never be the same." Childhood always leaves behind something worth remembering. Yan Nanxu dislikes snow... The wind here is biting, the snow falls heavily, it's too cold. In his daze, he often recalls the pain of slowly suffocating in the snow in his past life... He came under orders, he left willingly. In his daze, he thinks of the misty, rainy Jiangnan he often sees, willow catkins drifting in the wind, full of vitality. Jiangnan has the gentlest scenery, and also the most resolute spirit; it can be warm and inviting in spring, and it can also brave the snow and frost. Perhaps this is how people are raised, possessing both strength and gentleness. "Since I am here, why am I not a member of this world?" "The road ahead is uncertain, life and death are unpredictable." "All men must die, it is inevitable." "I speak the truth, yet I cannot speak recklessly. This chance encounter is already the culmination of a hundred lifetimes of glances, how can I ask for more?" The bright moon that descended to save lives is now stained with blood. The living are passersby, the dead are returning home; heaven and earth are but an inn, sharing the same sorrow of countless ages. In those eyes, only desolation remains, a vast, barren desert. Gone are the starry sky and bright moon of the Sword Pavilion he once cherished, gone is the harmonious blend of strength and gentleness of Jiangnan he once sought. "May your original intention remain... Never lose it, never let it go..." "Why did you kill your master?! You think he treated you badly? He saved you twice! He deliberately walked away knowing you wanted candied hawthorns! He even forged this sword for you himself!!" "'Nanxu'? Jiangnan flying catkins? What a beautiful name." What does the fireworks of a prosperous age look like? "It's like the east wind releasing a thousand trees of flowers at night, and then blowing down stars like rain." "Imagine the stars in the sky gathering into countless points of light, then exploding into flower shapes, and the starlight falling like rain." "And what about killing someone? Where do you think is the best place to shoot?" "The heart." "A typical person's heart is located in the lower left part of the chest cavity, right here..." "Shoot." "Nanxu, are you kidding?" "I told you to shoot." "Why would I have to shoot my own friend?" "Because if I don't shoot, even more people will die!" "Perhaps there are other ways." "No matter how many other ways there are, at that moment you only have one choice: shoot! We don't have that many opportunities or choices. Look at this world, what else do you think we can lose?" "Newborn children can't grow up, teenagers die young, and if this continues, only extinction awaits humanity. So, for the survival of humanity, your determination must be enough to gamble everything." Look forward, don't look back, never look back. No matter what you've lost, the future lies ahead. What's lost can't be recovered. Remember, the past cannot be changed, but the future can be pursued... "Nanxu, it's dawn. We no longer need to search for light in the darkness. It's dawn..." "A ruthless man?" "He will be a monarch. It doesn't matter if a monarch is ruthless; after all, one general's fame is built on the bones of ten thousand. But these 'ten thousand bones' can be soldiers on the battlefield, his political enemies, or his competitors, but they should never be ordinary people!" "The flowers of the imperial city laugh at the long-time hermit, thirty years of failing to witness the early spring. What does Lord Cao think of this?" If obsession can be overcome, then let the soul scatter. Petals fall, fallen red petals cover the ground... Expectations may be dashed, hopes may be shattered... The bare branches no longer bear the memory of their vibrant blossoms. What a pity... "I... Can I... Can I see the flowers bloom one more time?" The flowers on the path have not yet bloomed, the world's splendor has not yet ended. Who can truly be without attachments? It's late at night. You should go back. Someone is waiting for you. "Isn't it beautiful? Little Xu'er, I asked, it's called Spirit Grass, it's really beautiful! Such a big patch!" A thousand acres of purple light blended with warmth, and the fragrance permeated the heart for miles. "Little Xu'er!" "I've finished counting the lotus flowers, there are seven hundred and twenty-one lotus flowers in total!" Why? Because you call him "Little Xu'er", because you always stick to him, because you like to hold onto his clothes when you walk, because, because... "You, you counted a whole pond of lotus flowers..." Because of his coaxing words, you spent several days counting the entire pond of lotus flowers... Flowers as burial, green grass as offerings, bloodstains on clothes like blooming red plum blossoms, robes and black hair scattered on the ground, it was a very beautiful scene, but... Yes, it would be very happy, just like the system would be sad when it saw Yan Nanxu disappear, it understood the joy and sorrow from it, this was the joy and sorrow that Yan Nanxu gave it, it was very magical, unforgettable, as if it had been given a real life. "This," "He... In the end, he gave himself a sliver of divinity, mending his soul..." Beneath this calm, something seemed to be hidden—perhaps just a faint sense of loss, or perhaps a heavy, heart-wrenching pain... "The land is beautiful. I want to travel around. Wen Tian also likes the flowers and sunshine there. I'll go with him." This journey will take us to the ends of the earth; there's no return date, for there is no return. "He picked it casually, and I planted it casually. Will it really sprout?" A careless act? Is it truly unintentional now? I fear it's like planting flowers with intention, but they won't bloom. "Where are you going?" "To a distant place." "Is the distant place death?" "You cough so much at night that you can't sleep, often staying up all night." "No, the distant place isn't death, it never has been." He might have stopped somewhere—perhaps a small town in Jiangnan, a border village, or perhaps a small boat, a desolate wilderness... Or perhaps he hasn't stopped, still continuing his journey, searching for the distant place... Is the distant place death? Of course not, it's a beautiful journey home, the return of old friends, the end of all pursuits and expectations… Ultimately, the distance is solace. A figure in green robes, sword in hand, elegant and free, embodying the spirit of a wandering knight-errant. "Nanxu? A good name! I love Jiangnan, and I love willow catkins; when willow catkins fly, it means spring has arrived." "Hmm, let's call it 'Oath of the Peach Garden'!" The events of that day seem like a nightmare; now, waking from the dream, the old friend is gone. What if he were already dead? "Let me put it this way, you saved me twice. The first time you said it was just a casual rescue, but the second time... You risked your life to save me." "So," "you're a good friend, a good brother, and a savior—in short, a very important person." "What did you say my name was before?" "Nanxu, Yan Nanxu." "A nice name." "That's your name!" "Is there anything else you want to know? Oh, and that peach grove, the place where we swore brotherhood. Now that the blossoms are over, I'll take you there next spring..." "I don't remember anything from before. I don't remember any of what you said." "So what?" "If you really don't remember, that's fine. There will be new memories later." As long as everyone is safe and sound, the future is always more worth looking forward to than the past. Alas, your heart is not mine, leaving me with unrequited love. Yet, where my heart finds peace, I find sweetness in it. He is an old acquaintance, someone I can connect with from the past... Name? It doesn't matter. He doesn't need to know. Leaving Xuan Valley will give him a truly free future, and the memories of Xuan Valley and the self within those memories don't need to be recalled, nor should they. His future held neither Xuan Gu nor "Ming Qi," and this was the best outcome. With his heart bound, where could he find solace, where could he return? Whether it was atonement or judgment, Ming Xu would accept it. Ironically, at this moment, he still clung to a sliver of hope—perhaps it wasn't her, perhaps there were others behind him… But behind him was only one person. Ming Xu suddenly understood. Zhou Wan's gentle gaze when she looked at him earlier wasn't out of affection, but simply her usual way of being. He had been deluding himself. But… but… but why had he lied to him? Why had he used that method to deceive him? In his memory, Zhou Wan had always been gentle, smiling gently, saying gently that he should treat this place as his home—truly gentle, cruelly gentle. "I don't care where he's from, to me, his only identity is my friend. Now I'm going to find him, please get out of my way!" "I won't listen? Yes, I won't listen! I never imagined that in the end my parents would be accomplices to evil! Do you know how many people have died?!" "Nanxu..." "He became like that because of me. If he has any sins in this world, I will share half with him!!" "What are you asking me for repayment for? You didn't do anything to me..." "Why is this happening, Mother? Why are you doing this? You said you liked him, you said you hoped he would be your child too, why is this happening? Why... What is he supposed to do? I've had it so hard, I've had it so hard..." "I've been thinking, what did Nanxu do wrong? I've thought and thought, and finally I've figured it out." "It's saving me! The worst thing he did was save me! He shouldn't have saved me in the first place!" Flowers can bloom for a long time in the thicket, but once picked, they fade away. "That's strange," "Then why are you so persistent?" "Because of the Immortal Brother, I have to save him." "By the way, I've never asked, why do you call Nanxu that?" "Because the Immortal Brother is very handsome, and very gentle." "Then let me remind you, sometimes he might not be as gentle as you think." "What do you mean?" "To put it simply, he can also kill with his sword, he's not always as gentle and harmless as you remember." "I know that, I've seen it, the Immortal Brother's swordsmanship is very powerful." "Aren't you afraid? Even immortals can shed blood and kill." "Why should I be afraid?" "It's like the saying, 'A Bodhisattva lowers his brows, a Vajra glares fiercely.' The Bodhisattva lowers his brows for salvation, and so does the Vajra glare. The Immortal Brother's gentleness is for my sake, and when he sheds his sword to kill, it's to protect me, so..." "How could anyone not like the Immortal Brother?" He's not an immortal untouched by worldly dust, sometimes he might even be stained with blood, seemingly demonic yet not immortal. Even immortals can shed blood and kill. "Do people really eat others to increase their power?" "Yes, many would be willing..." I never imagined there would be so many... Years have passed, flowers have fallen, the past is but a dream, but let us not say all is vanity. The departed have returned; it is not too late to cherish the memories of yesteryear. The greatest sorrow is the separation of life and death, to the netherworld, to the ashes, to be left without a trace. "Because saving the common people is never anyone's responsibility. No one is obligated to shoulder such a responsibility. When poor, one should cultivate one's own virtue; when prosperous, one should help the world. But for the common people, each person's strength is insignificant. The common people shouldn't rely on one person to save them; that would be too much to ask." "You just want revenge. You can't kill Elder Xuan, so why do you think we can? Or are you simply sending us to our deaths?" "No, you can, only you can." "What do you mean?" "My poison can kill Elder Xuan, but the problem is I can't let the poison enter Elder Xuan's body undetected. Once he's on guard, it will fail..." "Then I discovered you. You are the medicinal herb he carefully cultivated. He will definitely eat you, without any suspicion, and earnestly." "... You poisoned me, and you want me to kill him?" "This is our only way." "This is your way!" "A method you devised without even asking me!" "You'll die even if you don't go. The poison is too strong; in a little over a month, your bones will melt away!" "Don't bother with that. I'll die before then!" "Do you think it would be too easy for me to silently poison everyone in this courtyard, given my abilities?" "Or perhaps, the poison has already been administered." The mission was merely for Ye Chen to cultivate the Blood Cloud Scroll; now that the mission was complete, he would simply leave. It was his incompetence; he couldn't possibly do anything more for the world anyway! "Fairy brother, saving the world is such a thankless and arduous task. Let whoever wants to do it do it. Let's go." "I didn't intend to save the world." "But don't say things like that. You have a long road ahead of you." "No need. I've already traveled a long way, I..." "You still have a long way to go, an even longer road." "And what about you? You'll pave the way for us, and then what?" "Then I'll go home." "Home?" "Yes, I've been gone for a long time, it's time to go home." "Can't you go back now?" "I hope that when I leave, your future will be bright and sunny. That way, every time I'm happy at home over beautiful scenery, I can imagine that you have the same feelings at some point. I hope you have a future, otherwise I'll be left with irreparable regrets." Saving the world is indeed an absurd task, but the people and things he cares about are just ordinary people among the masses. "Then..." "When should I come to see you?" "Don't come to see me. I'll go home after I've finished everything." "Home?" "Where do you live? I can take you home." "I can only walk home alone, otherwise I won't be able to get back." "I really want to go back." "Can I visit you later?" "I'm sorry, no." "I..." "I feel... I don't know, Nanxu, I don't know. Is this the right thing to do? Should I do this?" "Do you believe me?" "But it's so unlucky. I haven't bought a straw hat yet. I feel like my straw hat and yours are really incompatible... And, and that peach grove, all the flowers are gone. The fruit will probably be ripe by now, and there won't be any flowers to see... It's really, so unlucky..." "The flowers will bloom again next year." But it's just that the flowers are similar year after year, but the people are different year after year. Regret? Not really. Yan Nanxu didn't regret anything, just... Just very sad... He thought he could go back. Why couldn't he go home in the end? The other shore is peaceful, yet forever represents the past; this shore is complex, yet can write the future. Yan Nanxu walked to the screen under her parents' gaze, staring at the peach branch, then turned and smiled at them, tears glistening in her eyes—neither sorrow nor joy, but the enduring spirit that remained unchanged after countless trials. Willow catkins drift with the wind, peach blossoms follow the flowing water, spring's beauty flourishes. A sudden snowstorm, half a lifetime of ups and downs—was it misfortune or destiny? This awakening is not the end of fate; with the clear breeze and bright moon as a reminder, with the vast mountains and rivers as a map, she speaks of life and death, spring's beauty remains unchanged. A single thought is eternal; this heart remains untainted by worldly splendor, quietly awaiting the blooming flowers—a world unto itself, a three-foot platform. All the past is like fallen petals carried away by the waves—visible, yet untraceable; no one can forget it, but there's no need to be bound by it. The branches are still adorned with blossoms; let us not waste this day. Winter goes, spring comes, snow melts, flowers bloom; though near, yet far; the road ahead is not yet over. We still have countless springs, summers, autumns, and winters. "In the end, all the proof and mourning are for the living. The deceased are gone. Whether we, their descendants, praise, revere, or criticize, who can truly empathize?" "It's your fault, not your mistake. Life and death are settled, the past is gone." Spring waters are bluer than the sky, willows line the banks like smoke, a gentle breeze blows, willow catkins dance in the wind, scattering everywhere. They are neither snow nor flowers, yet they are both, dazzling the eyes of travelers, but never lingering, always on their way… "Flying catkins… Flying catkins of Jiangnan?"

    The first three world stories are concise and tightly plotted, with no filler content. Reading them evoked a complex mix of emotions, which was my favorite part of the book.

The bankrupt CEO world felt like the initial bad ending was reversed, but it was too convoluted, both realistic and melodramatic…

    The ultimate tragic ending aesthetics mean that the story's conclusion was predetermined from the beginning. In the first book, the long-lived, kind-hearted master and the extraordinary, fallen prodigy inevitably face separation. While I had anticipated this, I didn't expect their parting to be so sudden and tragic. The arrogant, world-dominating empress is poisoned by the very young emperor she supported; the siblings, who had shared a deep bond, were born enemies, destined for a life-or-death struggle. In the second book, Song Peinian, a solitary, aloof, and exceptional prodigy, chooses a treacherous path to pursue his ideals. He is isolated and helpless, with no one to rely on or trust. Even when he risks his life to save the people, the world only sees him as a sycophantic, deceitful traitor. The third book features a paralyzed werewolf father, a mother constantly on the run, and a girl largely ignored by everyone. Yet, she manages to pull off an incredible stroke of luck from a terrible hand, gaining extraordinary magical powers and remarkable abilities. However, no one knows the hardships and suffering she endured along the way, which sometimes makes Lisz envious, wondering why her luck is always so bad.

    Forget? How could that be? Even if he died in agony, he would never forget Shan Jiu! Lu Wujiu was too clever; he knew from Gu Xingmeng's words that she had such a plan. What a vicious method!

"Don't be so quick to refuse. You're the emperor; you can have any beauty you want. Why are you fixated on my childhood friend? She doesn't love you. Forget her, and you won't be trapped in the pain of separation from your loved one, and you can still be a good emperor." Lu Wujiu didn't want to argue with Gu Xingmeng anymore; this woman simply didn't understand! He held Shan Jiu's hand tightly, "You wouldn't be so cruel, would you? Right!" Shan Jiu remained silent. Lu Wujiu seemed to understand something. He looked at Shan Jiu in disbelief, "How could you... Cruelly deprive me of the most beautiful memories of my life?" "You can't! You have no right to do this!" Lu Wujiu retreated with tears in his eyes, "Guards! Seize Gu Xingmeng! Take... Take control of Lord Ji!!" But no one in the Hall of Longevity moved.

    This, the main text is 1. "Don't go..." "Don't leave..." "Sister..." Rong Zhi's eyes were already closed. But she could still feel the boy's hot tears falling on her weakly beating pulse. A low, mournful cry, like a lost young bird. Her tears slowly flowed from under her closed eyelashes. She wanted to comfort him, wanted to hold him. But she could no longer see the moon of 251 BC. 2. Rong Zhi's eyes were empty. She seemed to see, yet she seemed not. The north wind howled, like a mournful cry. In the distance, soldiers cried out in alarm. "It's snowing heavily!" Thick, fluffy snowflakes drifted down from the sky. It was as if snowflakes accumulated over decades were about to fall overnight. The ground was quickly covered with a layer of white. Snowflakes fell on the tent, making a rustling sound. Ying Zheng lowered his eyes and silently looked at the silent Rong Zhi. He thought of the saying, "The will of Heaven cannot be defied." Was it really so? Was even a snowfall so cruel? Ying Zheng reached out and tucked Rong Zhi's fur cloak around her neck, then bent down to put her thick leather boots on. He gently picked her up and led her out of the tent. The world was a blanket of silver snow, like a grand funeral. Ying Zheng held Rong Zhi, standing silently in the swirling snow. Snow fell on his head and shoulders, accumulating into a white layer. Rong Zhi nestled in his arms, her small face, with a faint smile, buried in the fur cloak, as if she were having a sweet dream. The accumulated snow slowly soaked through Ying Zheng's clothes, chilling him to the bone. But he only looked down at Rong Zhi. Their long hair intertwined, tinged with snowflakes and frost. Ying Zheng lowered his head, just as he always had, burying his face in the crook of her neck. He gently pressed his lips to Rong Zhi's cold cheek. He whispered, "A-Zhi, it's snowing." "Our hair has turned white too." 3 Later. He hoped countless times to see A-Zhi again. Perhaps A-Zhi harbored resentment towards him, which was why she never came to his dreams. He wondered if she was alright. He hadn't taken good care of her… Had A-Zhi felt any better after returning home? Sadly, all his hopes ultimately led to disappointment. After the disappointment, he almost self-deprecatingly comforted himself, "It's better not to see her." He wondered if A-Zhi would laugh at him if she saw his gray hair. His A-Zhi was forever young. Lively like a newborn fawn in the forest, shining brightly in his memory. But he was growing old. It was better not to see her, better not to see her. Only the longing in his heart, thread by thread, had grown into an impenetrable cocoon over the years. He couldn't escape it. He often thought of her, then forgot her. The next moment, he remembered her again. His heart seemed to have become a toy in a child's hands, uncontrollable to the point of being terrifying. But he preferred this fear to forget. His A-Zhi was a little fairy, knowing everything. About the Great Qin, about him. Even about the future. But he knew nothing. He didn't know what his A-Zhi was thinking. He didn't know what was hidden in those many unspoken words. He didn't know when she would come, or when she would leave. He could only wait in vain. He didn't even know why Jiujiu was called Jiujiu, or why she laughed so heartily. He was powerful and influential, ruling the world. But before Azhi, he was as useless as barren soil that could not grow flowers. In his life, he had not failed the world. Only he had failed her. Azhi had forgotten everything. She didn't remember that he was her husband, didn't remember Mengmeng Mountain, didn't remember their Fusu. Perhaps this was fate's punishment. Punishing him for breaking his vow. Punishing him for overestimating his abilities. Punishing him for daring to hope to keep a little fairy. Even the highest emperor is a fool who cannot obtain what he desires. Love was too extravagant for him. In his life, he could only love shallowly and feel little affection. But he was not resigned to it. Love can cross mountains and seas. A thousand years have passed, waiting only for the first light of dawn. In the end, he had won half a move over fate.
