[Quirky, righteous heroine x gentle, scheming prince]
Xiao Xianyue used to be endlessly annoyed by her father's nagging. Ever since she was little, she'd longed to see the world beyond her home: to explore the vast martial world and take in the splendor of a prosperous age. She hoped the agreement to live in peace with the imperial court would last, and more than anything, she wished for peace throughout the land and prosperity for the people.
She quietly made a to-do list in her heart:
1. Save a hero in distress.
2. Shout, "This mountain is mine, and I planted these trees!"
3. Find the Way in her heart.
But she never expected that, though the martial world seemed calm on the surface, turbulent undercurrents were already gathering beneath it.
The imperial family bribed martial artists and resorted to murder in their fight for the throne, then simply washed their hands of the consequences.
The imperial court distrusted the martial world, constantly afraid that some righteous hero might take their heads, so they struck first and showed no mercy.
Amid these turbulent times, Xiao Xianyue never lost sight of who she was. Through one trial after another, she shed her youthful naivete and became a beacon of hope for everyone, with a resilience beyond her years.
This is the martial world, and the fate of the realm.
Theme: Everyone has a dream of the martial world in their heart.
