"Kill her! Kill her!"
Ever since Meng Guiyun came back from the dead, she had the same dream every night.
In the dream, she rushed toward her stepmother in a frenzy, wanting to kill her and avenge her mother. But the maids beside her stepmother held her down and threw her into a pond, where she drowned.
With no one left to rely on at home, she could only return to her maternal grandmother's family and seek their protection.
On the way, a Daoist priest took a liking to her, accepted her as his apprentice, and helped her deal with the people who came to kill her.
She heard she had a senior apprentice brother. Her master said they would meet if fate brought them together.
They certainly were fated to meet. Senior Brother, why are people trying to kill you too?
You owe me your life. Don't forget to repay me.
After Jiang Yuanyu was assassinated, he woke to find that his master had taken on a new junior apprentice sister.
She's a genius with even more talent than me?
It took me nearly a month to successfully draw in qi, but she did it in one day?
My junior sister proposed to me?
Does she have no affection for me at all and only want to take advantage of my background?
I'm a little upset, but since I owe her my life, offering myself in return isn't out of the question.
