Sword cultivator Xie Mingtian was buried in debt and fretting over how to pay it off when she came across a wanted-person notice.
The top listing was for a man.
Xie Mingtian read the reason for the search: running away from an arranged marriage?
Then she looked at the reward: one zero, two zeros, three zeros... She counted until her head spun.
An astronomical sum. She was in!
Using a secret art passed down through her family, she found the general location. There were four small sects in the area. Xie Mingtian visited three of them, and by the time she reached the last one, it was recruiting new disciples.
She applied, passed the tests, and finally reached the moment of taking a master. But the sect leader rejected her, saying her spiritual roots were inadequate.
Xie Mingtian: ...
With no other choice, she made up a tragic backstory and succeeded in moving a female cultivator to take her as a disciple.
After joining the sect, Xie Mingtian investigated openly and in secret. There was only one person left, and it seemed impossible that they could be the one.
She turned to look at her female master.
She had heard the person bore a mark.
Her gaze slowly drifted downward, to her master's collar, only to see her master clutching her clothes shut with one hand.

Xie Chuyi fled an arranged marriage and hid in a small sect in the Outer Eight Realms, where he became an honorary elder.
One day during recruitment, he saw a young girl with a determined gaze and a miserable past.
Remembering his own experience of being forced into marriage, he couldn't help feeling sorry for her and took her as his disciple.
But why did this little disciple learn everything so quickly, and why was she always looking at him so strangely?
