I Decide My Own Fate

Blurb:

The Great Chu Dynasty has a sacred tree that protects the imperial bloodline. Anyone of royal descent who eats its fruit receives the protection of the dragon veins, and demons and ghosts cannot approach them.

But when the daughter of Princess Lingchang ate the fruit, her ghostly eyes opened and she could see demons. She was deemed an ill-omened child, so she was forbidden to bear the imperial surname Zhou. For eighteen years she lived far from the capital, and few knew where she had gone.

Eighteen years later, the truth behind the “ghost eyes” gradually came to light when a theft occurred in the imperial palace.

That same year, Zhu Fu'an, the long-missing daughter of Princess Lingchang, returned to the capital.

Zhu Fu'an, who had been handed a tragic, beautiful, strong heroine’s script: “What? Isn’t this just a fun vacation to visit my family, given to me by my master after I earned a guaranteed spot to ascend?”

Tips:

1. She returns to the capital right at the start, clears up the rumors about her ghost eyes, and the heroine is granted the title of commandery princess.

2. An ancient setting where humans, ghosts, and demons live together, with extensive original worldbuilding. It’s a low-martial world, but the heroine is very powerful, and her Zhu You arts are the best in the world.

3. The heroine has no romantic pairing. There is no male lead. The heroine is the most beautiful, coolest, and strongest.

4. Zhu You arts: healing by incantation, without the use of needles or stones.

5. This story uses the same worldbuilding as “I Pretended to Be Blind in the Cultivation World.” It takes place in a small world within the greater cultivation world. You don’t need to have read “Pretending to Be Blind” to follow this story. The heroine’s master is Jun Zhaoying, the strongest person in the cultivation world below the Tribulation Transcendence stage.

Theme: Demons may be different from us, but they are also found in the human heart.
