   Speaking of which, I have to mention this book. It has a very positive moral compass, doesn't hold grudges, and lets revenge happen on the spot. The chapter where one person fights seven geniuses was especially satisfying! It avoids the clichés of traditional fantasy, the protagonist is very shrewd, and it's not just mindless wish-fulfillment.

    The opening of "The Princess and the Sword Immortal" unfolds like a vast desert landscape. Amidst swirling snow and biting winds, Princess Zhao Jin, accompanied by her maid Bihe, quietly escapes the confines of the palace and plunges into the treacherous world of martial arts. This scene is reminiscent of Guo Jing and Huang Rong's first encounter in the snowstorm of Zhangjiakou. However, Zhao Jin is not as clever and nimble as Huang Rong; her will is resolute, her vision broad, and her noble bearing makes her a hidden gem in this perilous world, drawing the reader's attention. The "Lone Sword Immortal," Xiao Jianqiu, is a renowned figure whose martial arts have reached a pinnacle. With his "Autumn Water Ancient Sword" unsheathed, no one can withstand three moves, leaving all heroes helpless. He is aloof and elusive, yet not heartless. The princess and the sword immortal, one noble, one reclusive; one passionate, one cold, their fates intertwined in this harsh winter, inevitably leading to a momentous upheaval. The story is ingeniously structured from the outset, with vividly portrayed characters, suspenseful plot twists, and hidden dangers amidst the snowstorm, making it a truly captivating masterpiece.

    The celestial beings use the mortal realm as a chessboard, periodically "purifying" the world and cleansing all living beings. The key piece in this game is a "useless" man with a destroyed dantian. Lu Zhiyu, born with blocked meridians, is the number one useless man in the capital. He only wants to be a wealthy idler, unaware that he harbors the "innate impure body," the most feared thing by the celestial beings. Until that day, the emperor bestows upon him a drunken beggar as his teacher. The whole capital laughs; no one knows that this beggar once ravaged the heavens three hundred years ago. Even more ironically, his stunningly talented fiancée is desperately trying to escape the engagement. She sees Lu Zhiyu as a stain on her life, unaware that she is merely a vessel prepared by the celestial beings. The celestial beings look down upon the mortal realm, mocking the struggles of ants. But they don't know—this time, a monster capable of swallowing the heavens has emerged from among the ants.
