After I Attained the Dao, My Dao Companion Came Looking for Me

[One of the Widow Series]

Blurb:

Jing Wu belongs to no sect. She's a sword cultivator, poor as dirt, and the most valuable thing she owns is her broken sword.

Even that broken sword isn't worth much.

Her cultivation has hit a bottleneck, and she's been stuck there for nearly a hundred years. To break through, she needs a vast supply of rare treasures.

But rare treasures are hard to find, and she has no money to buy them. Then one day, she rescued three female cultivators.

The three hit it off with Jing Wu at once. After chatting beneath the moon, Jing Wu discovered that none of them came from as good a background or had as high a cultivation level as she did, yet they were all wealthy now, each owning several spirit-stone mines and able to pick from piles of rare treasures every day.

The one thing they had in common was that they were all widows.

Their beauty was their own; their fortunes were inherited.

Jing Wu: ...So something this good really does exist?

She immediately went looking for wealthy, frail male cultivators rumored to be near death, planning to follow her three sisters' example, marry one, and inherit her Dao companion's estate after becoming a widow.

But Jing Wu knew her looks and family background wouldn't make her stand out among the female cultivators, so she cast a wide net. She hooked eight male cultivators at once, figuring one of them was bound to take the bait and become her Dao companion.

She kept her act up without slipping, and in the end, her plan worked.

The biggest news in the cultivation world recently was that Daoist Vongchun had announced he would soon hold a Dao-companion ceremony.

The cultivators all asked, "Huh? Who's his Dao companion?"

"Some female cultivator named Jing."

Never heard of her.

But if she could stir the cold-hearted Daoist Vongchun's emotions, she must have truly loved him.

She must love him so much!

While the entire cultivation world speculated about who Jing Wu was and what she looked like, the day of the Dao-companion ceremony arrived.

Countless cultivators attended and saw the Immortal Venerable Vongchun gazing tenderly at the woman beside him.

"Jing Wu, will you become my Dao companion?"

"Sure."

The next moment, someone in blood-soaked black burst in with a blade and forcefully cut the red thread between them, ruining the ceremony.

His icy gaze fell on Jing Wu. "A Wu, do you still recognize me?"

Jing Wu: "..."

She turned her head.

Vongchun looked hurt. "Wu Wu, who is he?"

Jing Wu: "..."

This was trouble. Why had the Dao companion she'd killed a hundred years ago to prove her Dao suddenly come back?

And why had he become so strong and so crazy?

Reader's Note:

1. The female lead is beautiful and powerful, but not tragic. She's a career-driven heartbreaker.

2. A feel-good story packed with dramatic twists and love-triangle showdowns.
