Though she had been lucky enough to take on three excellent disciples, she always looked old and frail, as if she might drop dead at any moment. She had none of the bearing one would expect of a cultivator. She didn't know that she was actually the villainous cannon fodder in a book, a massive obstacle on the male lead's path to collecting love interests. In the end, the male lead was supposed to humiliate her so badly that she would die by suicide out of shame. But the protagonists didn't know that this seemingly useless Elder Hua Qing was the first person beneath the Nine Heavens capable of ascending to immortality. Rumor had it that her Dao companion, whom she had supposedly caused to die, had now become an emperor in the heavens. Hua Qing's relationship with that emperor hadn't been very good. Not good enough that he had abandoned her, taking their newborn son with him. Hua Qing often thought, "Let your Dao companion die, but save yourself" was such a profound saying. Unfortunately, back then, she hadn't fully understood its meaning. Much later, a young man in white who looked a lot like her former Dao companion came to the Tian Shu Sect.
