[Shang Qing's Blurb]
That year, a light rain fell on the long street. Shang Qing, clad in a blue Taoist robe, entered the mortal world carrying an oil-paper umbrella.
Her teacher said she was bound by fate, and could not leave the mountain unless Heaven gave its sign. Otherwise, she would die before the age of thirty. Whenever she thought of going down the mountain, her senior sisters would do everything they could to stop her.
Shang Qing had thought she would spend her whole life on Qutong Mountain. Then one day, someone carefully carried a woman on their back and knelt before the Three Pure Ones Temple. The woman's ink-black hair hung loose, revealing only half of her pale, bluish face.
"Please, Immortal, save my mistress."
Shang Qing glanced at her and walked away. The woman on the stranger's back was clearly dead. There was no way to defy Heaven and bring her back to life.
That evening, the stranger was still kneeling. Shang Qing's teacher returned from outside the mountain, paused as she passed by, and sent someone to call Shang Qing out from the back courtyard.
"Shang Qing, are you willing to save her?"
Shang Qing stepped forward and brushed aside the woman's hair. Her face was half blue and half white, blood trickled from her eyes, ears, nose, and mouth, and she looked terrifyingly cold. Shang Qing thought the woman would probably become a vengeful ghost.
Shang Qing swept her sleeve. "Teacher, I'll save her."
Why? Maybe because even in death, she still had that brazen air about her.

Qutong Mountain, the Three Pure Ones Temple. A woman stood at the cliff's edge, facing the wind. The cold gusts made her cloak flap loudly. A carrier pigeon landed on her shoulder, told her something, then hurried away.
Shang Qing asked her, "I still don't know your name."
The woman in white turned to look at her. After a long pause, she said, "My name is Yin Yueting."
