Shen Nanxing, the cherished jewel of the Prince of Zhennan's household, was breathtakingly beautiful, but also astonishingly sickly.
A renowned doctor declared she wouldn't live past eighteen.
Her response: No big deal! Then I'll live freely and do whatever I want!
While other noble young ladies embroidered and played the qin in their boudoirs, Shen "Sickly" Nanxing sneaked into the military camp to watch the passionate... bare-chested... training! She even painted portraits of the soldiers.
Those bulging muscles, that steaming sweat... Ah, they were the most vivid "medicine" in her pale life! Though this "medicine" was a little too potent: during one viewing, her nose started gushing blood and she fainted on the spot.
When she woke, she saw her father, whose hair she had turned white with worry, respectfully addressing an old man with the bearing of an immortal.
Before she could come to her senses, a woman in blue, as graceful as a celestial maiden, had picked her up like a chick! A long sword pierced the sky and shot toward the clouds. The newly awakened young princess rolled her eyes and fainted again in terror.
It turned out that, to save his beloved daughter's life, the Prince of Zhennan had no choice but to send her to Wuwei Valley, the most renowned place in the cultivation world.
Shen Nanxing: Cultivation? Immortality? Not interested! Life is short, so enjoy it while you can. Looking at handsome men is the most important thing!
That is, until her white-bearded master, who understood human nature all too well, took her to Xuanti Temple.
Beneath a waterfall plunging from a great height, young disciples sat meditating with their eyes closed.
Their soaked monk robes clung to them... outlining... sleek, powerful muscles...
Shen Nanxing's eyes widened in shock, and she forgot to breathe.
Her master stroked his beard and drawled, "Disciple, the longer you live, the more you get to see... and if you see enough, hmm, perhaps you'll even get to... touch?"
Flames blazed in Shen Nanxing's eyes. She declared with absolute conviction, "Master! I understand now! I will cultivate, no matter what!"
