In the eleventh year of the Jingyuan era, nine-year-old Luo Yuntang took over as leader of the Qiluo Sect from her father, becoming the head of a sect powerful enough to stand against the imperial court and the southern border states.
Hailed as a prodigy since childhood, she grew up surrounded by "sweet words" wrapped around swords and blades, and never once enjoyed a good night's sleep.
The higher you climb, the closer you come to the abyss.
Until one day, while bathing, she ran into a young man.
"You saw me naked. How are you going to make up for that?"
Jiang He, the swordsman on the run from the entire martial world, folded his arms beside the "bathhouse pool."
"Don't worry, miss. I shall marry you."
Yuntang, thinking to herself: Uh... It was just an accidental glimpse. Is it really worth a fine young man like you giving up your whole life for?
A few months later: You little rascal, you can dream on if you think you'll become the Qiluo Sect leader's husband!
Scene 1:
"Jiang He, what I want is a love that is completely pure, with no favors owed and no guilt involved. Do you understand?"
The stubborn sect leader whispers in someone's ear while he sleeps.
The man pretending to be asleep: Understand my foot. I'll pin you down and kiss you first!
Scene 2:
"Jiang He, what do you wish for?"
"I only wish for our mountains and rivers to endure, for peace on the borders, and for no one in this world to suffer from hunger and cold."
A cool, dignified beauty of a sect leader vs. a chivalrous, righteous, free-spirited swordsman
Theme: May our mountains and rivers endure, and may there be peace on the borders.
