"Master says that those who seek immortality and the Dao should have no attachments, yet the threads of affection between her and him can never be severed."

Qin Ling has mediocre talent, a terrible memory, and a knack for backing out of everything.
Everyone in the sect knows she's unreliable.
Yet her master insists on assigning her an important mission.
Her master says that strange signs suggest the leader of the Moyan Clan, whose soul was shattered by the Goddess Nanyao five hundred years ago, is somehow showing signs of imminent resurrection.
Her master also says that to prevent the Moyan Clan leader from returning and laying waste to the world, the Goddess Nanyao must be there to keep watch.
But after the great battle five hundred years ago, the goddess disappeared.
So Qin Ling's mission is to find Nanyao.
"But where am I supposed to look for the goddess? Why do I have to find her? Who am I, anyway? I'm so useless. Why me? Couldn't someone else go instead?" Qin Ling did not want to go at all.
"Because you have a poor memory. Even if you're in terrible pain from an injury, you'll forget all about it as soon as you turn around. When you face the road ahead again, you won't be afraid just because it hurt before," her master said with a perfectly straight face.
"..." So people with bad memories are fearless?
Qin Ling never imagined that her poor memory would one day earn her an incredibly important mission.

On the journey to find the goddess, she was bound to be attacked by the remnants of the Moyan Clan.
The Moyan Clan wielded black flames. Anyone with feelings or desires in their heart could not escape being burned by them.
So before sending her on the mission to find the goddess, her master told her to make a trip to Wanshi Mountain.
The cultivators there had cast off their seven emotions and six desires, making them immune to the black flames.
Her master told Qin Ling to find a cultivator there to accompany her on the journey.
When Qin Ling arrived at Wanshi Mountain, she saw a handsome man called "Wumin," said to be the most powerful person in the whole manor, and felt that he looked familiar.
"Have we met somewhere before?" Qin Ling asked, eyes full of anticipation.
Wumin glanced at her, his gaze cold, and replied in a low voice, "Have you forgotten me already, wife?"
Qin Ling: ?!
Had she forgotten something important again?!
#Didn't you say the people here had cast off their seven emotions and six desires? So why are you calling her your wife!
The forgetful little cultivator who can drive even people without emotions and desires crazy VS the powerful, righteous-yet-evil big shot who has cast off his emotions and desires
- While searching for someone else, she also found herself.
* The worldbuilding includes original elements.
* Her forgetfulness will gradually improve.
* Happy ending.
* More notes to come...
