The Immortal Venerable Is My Dao Companion from a Past Life

Su Mingxi transmigrates into the seventh daughter of the Yongning Marquis's household: an unfortunate concubine-born girl whose mother died young, whose father ignores her, whose stepmother is harsh, and whose sisters are against her.

Su Mingxi: She gets it! She finally understands!

This is a story of inner-court rivalries. By the usual formula, she should curry favor with her grandmother and useless father, defeat her sisters and stepmother, outshine all the noble young ladies of Yanjing, and eventually marry the young general renowned for his military exploits, becoming the ultimate winner in the world of inner-court schemes.

But understanding the formula is one thing. Su Mingxi, who spent her previous life as a slacker office worker, really doesn't want to match wits with a bunch of girls in their early teens. She just wants to curl up in a corner of the garden every day, eating snacks and reading novels...

She slacks off and coasts through life like this until she is fifteen. After being dragged into an inner-court dispute and having her reputation ruined, Su Mingxi can no longer marry. Her only option is to spend the rest of her life in a Taoist temple outside Yanjing.

On the day she takes the vows, watched by her father, stepmother, and sisters, each with their own thoughts, Su Mingxi bids farewell to her family in a blue Taoist robe, looking utterly heartbroken as she leaves behind a life of wealth and splendor.

In reality... she is ecstatic inside, eager to rush straight into the temple and start her new life of freedom, without a care in the world.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, the winds rise and clouds gather across the sky. Radiant light stretches for thousands of miles, auspicious beasts soar overhead, and an immortal in white robes with a stern, handsome face descends from the heavens to ask if she'd like to cultivate immortality.

Su Mingxi: "...So this world is actually a cultivation story?"

Go, go, go! Of course she's going!

After cultivating for a thousand years, the Immortal Venerable Gongyi Shan reaches a bottleneck and finds it difficult to break through. He casts a divination for himself.

The reading shows that he still has a karmic debt to repay.

It concerns a female cultivator of medicine whom he met after losing his memory when he was still weak and had suffered a cultivation deviation. They once became cultivation partners and spent seven years together.

Later, when the cultivation world was beset by crisis, the medicine cultivator was killed by his enemy while still at the Foundation Establishment stage. In his grief, he broke through and avenged his partner.

The path to immortality is long, and time flies. Nearly a thousand years have passed. If not for the divination, Gongyi Shan, who has weathered countless storms, would have forgotten the cultivation partner buried deep in his memories.

Now, Gongyi Shan owes this deceased partner a great karmic debt. He must find her reincarnation and repay her kindness before he can truly become detached from worldly emotions and attain the Great Dao.

Take a mortal with no spiritual roots onto the path of immortality and give her eternal life. That should be enough to repay his debt of gratitude, right?
