Thorns on the Path to Immortality

A mighty clan. The eldest legitimate daughter. Unparalleled talent. Xu Fangge was born with everything. Liu Xian'er, on the other hand, was merely the green leaf meant to set off the red flower, not even worthy of being called a leaf. She was just a weed growing by the roadside. A secret illegitimate-daughter status she couldn't reveal to anyone. Poor aptitude, with a mixed four-element spiritual root. Even her only advantage, her beauty, became a burden because of her low cultivation. After years of enduring things in silence, one lucky encounter after another came her way. With careful planning, she finally turned her fortunes around. Not only did her aptitude improve, she also had the good fortune to win the affection of handsome men from every walk of life, and her cultivation steadily advanced... But just as she trampled that favored daughter of Heaven beneath her feet and cheered in triumph, everything changed, and she could no longer make sense of the world. The men she loved had ulterior motives. Her sister, whom she had always envied and hated, had repeatedly risked her life to protect her. When she finally learned the truth behind it all, she screamed at that figure beneath the Nine Tribulations Heavenly Thunder. The woman, reduced to a remnant soul, left her with just one sentence. "Liu Xian'er, I, Xu Fangge, have never wronged you." The workings of Heaven are mysterious; all things cycle through reincarnation. After escaping death time and again, she begins anew. Looking at the white figure shielding her, Liu Xian'er silently swore that in this life, she would cultivate immortality alongside Fangge and attain the Great Dao! As for those scumbag men... Hmph! Just wait until I make you suffer!
