The fourth son of the Chen family had two daughters.
The elder daughter was deeply loved by her parents, but the younger one was quite the opposite. She had been so active in the womb that everyone was convinced she was a boy. The whole family had high hopes, only for her to be born a girl, a useless money drain.
The younger girl's name was Er Ya. Lively and energetic since childhood, she was born to be a rebel. Whenever the Chen couple said one thing, she would argue back tenfold. She was often scolded and beaten, but she wasn't afraid in the least and kept doing as she pleased.
When she was eight, her parents argued again over not having a son to carry on the family line and decided to separate. They left their eight-year-old daughter behind at the town market and went their separate ways.
Chen Er Ya cried as she made her way home alone, only to suffer her first major setback in life.
She was kidnapped by human traffickers. From then on, her life took one twist after another. But with a great task suddenly laid upon her, she steadily made her way toward ascension, once so far beyond her reach.
[Please Note]
1. This is not a female-led power fantasy, and the female lead is not strong.
2. The female lead is ordinary, a little obsessive about cleanliness, a bit stubborn, argumentative, and very fond of money.
3. Xuanhuan cultivation, a tiny bit of wild imagination, and an extremely slow pace in the early chapters.
4. My version of the cultivation world's ranks: Body Entry, Qi Transformation, Soul Refining, Core Fusion, Tribulation, Dao Shattering, Return to Truth.
5. There is a male lead, and he gets a decent amount of screen time.
Theme: Take it one step at a time. The road only appears as you walk it.
