Make a Wish to the Gods

Wanzhi is a descendant of the Wu Xi tribe, guardians of the resting place of the gods: the most exalted, powerful, and prestigious deities in the Thirteen Provinces of Yunjing.

As a descendant of the Wu Xi tribe, whose strength and status are second only to the gods, Wanzhi has lived a carefree life. Her only duty is to sweep, dust, water the flowers, and pull weeds at the gods' resting place once a year. She has it easy.

Perhaps the Heavenly Dao thought she was too idle. What goes around comes around: the gods' resting place under Wanzhi's care was blown up!

While injured and being pursued, Wanzhi was threatened three times.

The first threat came from the senior disciple of the Xuan Sect: dressed in white with a bamboo hairpin, his sword cold as frost. He was also the Daoist partner whom fate had foretold would marry her!

Wanzhi: Heh. She had spent over a hundred years roaming free as a cloud and a wild crane. She might not have much else, but she had a few extra pounds of rebelliousness.

The second threat came in a dark alley, where a desperate mortal was ready to perish alongside her, without a care for the consequences!

Wanzhi: What?!

The third thing pressed to her throat was not a sword, but a sharp, withered branch. The person holding it was a delicate and handsome young lord. He had fallen into the water, his face pale and eyes blazing with anger. "You used me to take the blade for you and deceive everyone? We are not on the same side. Get as far away from me as you can!"

Wanzhi: Fine by me. Fulfilling a mortal's simple little wish is still something she can do, even when luck is against her!

Updates whenever inspiration strikes! Updates whenever inspiration strikes! Updates whenever inspiration strikes!!!

Notes before you start:

1. The female lead is strong, very strong. Her luck is bad early on, and she is a little down on her luck.

2. This is a lighthearted story.

3. The setting is an original world: the Thirteen Provinces of Yunjing, where immortals, demons, spirits, and humans live together.

4. Updates come whenever inspiration strikes. I started this on a burst of enthusiasm, and it's a series I'll work on for as long as I'm alive. I'll update as much as I write. Updates might come quickly, but more likely they'll be slow. The goal is to finish it someday!

5. Dear readers, please leave lots of comments and chat with me!
