What does it feel like to be driven out to the remote mountains instead of living as the capital's richest family's legitimate daughter?
Su Wanwan has experienced what it means to be unable to accept the Emperor's generous favor.
It all began when her meddlesome father accidentally saved the Emperor's life. Thanks to him, she was betrothed to the Crown Prince.
At first, it sounded wonderful, like she'd risen from the branch to become a phoenix. But who could have guessed that marrying the Crown Prince required ascending to immortality?
Su Wanwan: Since I'm becoming an immortal, of course I'm going to heaven. Whoever wants to marry him can do it!
But her immortal tree was only as big as a grain of sand. At Cangyun Mountain, where they judged talent but not family background, she didn't become everyone's darling. Instead, all her senior brothers singled her out.
So what if they have talent!
To survive, she could only spend money on all kinds of high-grade equipment.
But... every last item was stolen.
"Master, they're picking on me!"
"All right, I'll stand up for you."
Su Wanwan stood proudly behind Mu Qingheng, hands on her hips.
No matter what she asked for, her master would give it to her.
Until...
Just as she was about to ascend to immortality, he personally destroyed the Ascension Platform and pulled her into his arms, holding her by the wrist.
"Do you want to become an immortal just so you can marry him?"
Mu Qingheng's voice was laced with anger. When he looked down at her, his eyes held emotions she'd never seen before, and she couldn't understand them.
"Master?"
She called to him timidly. The only answer she got was a hot, damp kiss.
Pinned beneath him, she forgot how to breathe. All she could hear was her master's quiet voice by her ear: "Would you stay by your master's side forever?"
