Chen Xu was widely recognized as the foremost disciple of the immortal sects in the current era of the cultivation world.
In an age when spiritual energy was dwindling, she wielded the Cangsheng Sword, beat the ghosts of Dujin Mountain, and trampled countless geniuses beneath her feet. Through her own efforts, she earned a fearsome reputation, and disciples from both the immortal sects and demonic territories would take a detour as soon as they heard her name.
Even someone like her had a secret she forbade others to mention.
Chen Xu had a childhood friend, a junior martial uncle. They had grown up together, supporting and relying on each other.
On the day Chen Xu broke through to the Nascent Soul stage at the age of 124, her junior martial uncle brought out every treasure he had amassed over the years and proposed to her in front of everyone in their sect.
Chen Xu agreed.
The happy news spread throughout the cultivation world, but a month before the wedding, her junior martial uncle vanished without a trace.
From then on, the incident became the only stain on Chen Xu's life.
Later, Chen Xu received a plea for help from a fellow disciple and went to the southern lands to assist with an investigation into the ghost fog.
She pushed open the old wooden door, sending dust swirling through the air.
The handsome man sitting among her junior disciples had a familiar face, unchanged after all these years.
They looked at each other for a long time.
Chen Xu looked down at him, her voice cool. "It's been a long time."
"Luo Buyan."
Luo Buyan had a secret everyone knew.
He loved Chen Xu very, very much.
Chen Xu x Luo Buyan, one-on-one romance
The immortal sect's top disciple: not a peerless talent, but with absolutely top-tier cultivation, a ruthless senior sister who says little x the junior martial uncle: not a peerless talent, with decent cultivation, an immortal sect slacker who cracks jokes and banters
Love saves me from the flames. Love helps me see you again.
