Yuqiu Jianwan, master of Kunlun Mountain, is as pure as snow and ice, virtuous and noble, and revered by all.
The only thing she has ever done to defy the rules was secretly keep a Miao boy behind when she sent the foreign tribe to the polar abyss to serve their punishment, hiding the truth from the world.
She did so because, when the boy could barely protect himself in the snowstorm, he had carefully cradled a dying white fox and saved its life with the warmth of his own body.
Knowing how kind the boy was, she took him back, cared for him, taught him compassion and righteousness, and instructed him in the arts of cultivation and magic.
The boy had clear, glassy eyes and a diligent, driven nature, with treasures of wisdom hidden within him.
Years later, after Yuqiu Jianwan had taught him all the arts she knew, the boy had grown into an exceptional young man.
Overjoyed, she calmly told him that their master-disciple bond had come to an end. He need not stay in Kunlun any longer, and she hoped he would bring kindness to the mortal world and blessings to all living things.
[The Male Lead's Perspective]
Li Weimu was never a kind person.
When the Miao tribe's alliance with the demons failed, he learned that his entire people would be frozen in the polar abyss, suffering the bite of ice and the scorch of fire for ten thousand years, with no hope of escape. So he deliberately knocked out a white fox and tucked it into his arms, pretending to nurse it back to health.
Just as he had expected, Yuqiu Jianwan kept him, concealed his identity for him, and patiently taught him.
Back then, Li Weimu thought that as long as he acted kind and obedient and made her happy, he could stay by Yuqiu Jianwan's side forever.
But in the end, she still sent him away.
Worse, she wore a phoenix crown and a red wedding gown adorned with jade, her brows dark as distant mountains and her eyes shimmering like autumn waters.
She married another man.
A wedding procession stretching ten miles, with phoenixes and phoenix birds singing in harmony.
In that moment, Li Weimu realized that even the appearance of a loving master and devoted disciple could no longer be maintained.

The candlelight is dim, making the already dark room feel even more obscure and unreal.
The woman who had once been pure as ice and clear as an abyss is now dazed, her eyes unfocused.
The passion flower by the window blooms gracefully, filling the room with a heady fragrance.
Li Weimu gazes into her bewildered, glistening eyes, kisses her sweat-dampened hair, and refuses to let her go.
"Master, no matter whom you love, I am the only one who can stay by your side."
More or less, it's the story of a goddess who saves people out of kindness, only to have her disciple repay her by betraying her trust.
[Reader's Guide]
1. With this premise, don't expect the male lead to have high moral standards.
2. The fiance isn't a good person. And even if he were, that wouldn't stop the male lead from taking what he wants by force.
Next book: Unconventional Guide to Getting Strong
The day Xiao Zhici, a famously good-for-nothing spirit root, made a stunning impression at the trial tournament, everyone was left dumbfounded, disbelieving, and questioning everything they knew.
As a result, countless versions of the story spread:
"Have you heard? When Xiao Zhici faced the immortal sect's first senior brother, she threw a punch like a divine pillar and shattered the nose of a senior brother at the late stage of Spirit Transformation! Poor guy was so handsome and mighty, and now his nose is crooked and his mouth is lopsided!"
"I get it now! When Xiao Zhici was surrounded by single-spirit-root disciples from all the sects, the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth flowed through her palm, and not one of them could stand against her! So much for mixed spirit roots being useless. It turns out single spirit roots are the real trash!"
"It was terrifying! Xiao Zhici commanded millions of soul soldiers, and they were invincible. Even the elders and sect leaders in the stands got caught up in it. Their pants were shredded, and they fell to their knees begging Xiao Zhici to spare them!"
"It's true! The Upper Realm feared her strength so much that they sent down a tribulation. But Xiao Zhici tore open a rift in space, grabbed a divine soldier from the Upper Realm to take the lightning strike for her, then gobbled him up while he was still sizzling!"
Xiao Zhici: "...?"
Wait, you only passed on the first half of the story. Did you just make up the second half?
Everyone: "She admits it! She admits it! Fellow Daoist Xiao really knows how to hide her abilities. She pretended to have a good-for-nothing spirit root to keep a low profile before, and even now she only tells half the story and keeps the rest to herself. A true master, so humble!"
Xiao Zhici: "..."

At the Heaven-Worshipping Ceremony, Xiao Zhici, a good-for-nothing, is once again held up as a cautionary example and compared to the fated male and female leads.
"Senior Brother Gu and Junior Sister Leng are a match made in heaven, yet that good-for-nothing Xiao Zhici is engaged to Senior Brother Gu!"
"I heard that the young lord above hasn't overcome his tribulation of love and is about to descend to the mortal realm for training?"
"If you ask me, Senior Brother Gu must be that lord's reincarnation. Xiao Zhici is just an obstacle in his path. Once he kicks her aside, he'll ascend with Junior Sister Leng!"
Xiao Zhici: "???"
Xiao Zhici lets out a cold laugh, leaps to the center of the altar, points at the stern and majestic statue of the young lord above, and launches into a brazen tirade:
"That nobody Gu Yuhua is nothing but a clown. How could he possibly be the young lord?"
"After all, that lord visits my dreams every night, kisses my toes, and begs me to look his way!"
"But you're all nothing but insects and vermin. Even if that so-called young lord begs and pleads with me, he still wouldn't deserve to be my destined partner!"
Then a thunderbolt bomb blows up the altar, and she strides away.
Perhaps because she had been too brazen that day, Xiao Zhici finds herself in a dream that night, in a place filled with celestial music and rosy clouds.
A peerlessly beautiful young man sits upon the throne, far more handsome than Gu Yuhua, whom everyone had praised to the skies that day.
After meeting such a stunning little puppy, Xiao Zhici thinks keeping him as a pet wouldn't be so bad.
She hooks a finger beneath the young man's chin,
only to suddenly notice the divine seal at his temple, marking him as the "young lord."
Theme: To wear the crown, one must bear its weight.

This heroine feels stupid, why does she believe everything others say?
Is the fairy world so weak? They have all been infiltrated into a sieve by other worlds. Instead of protecting their own family, they push others out to take the blame.
