Her purple robes flutter, and the sound of her zither drifts through the air. She is elegant and serene, standing apart from the world;
Cool and clear as water, her music lonely and desolate. She stands alone, hesitating in silence;
Her sword has no blade, her music cold and absolute. She is decisive in battle, swift and fierce;
Which one of them is the real her?
A royal upheaval fifteen years ago tore her from her family at birth. Fifteen years later, she revealed her brilliance, made a name for herself in the martial world, and became a legendary master of music! The mystery of her origins, the continent’s hidden treasures, the hatred between nations and families, and trials of friendship and love all intertwine. See how this peerless beauty hones herself and grows step by step, reaching heights others can only admire and changing the fate of an entire continent!
[The Heroine Makes a Dazzling Entrance]
A young woman walked slowly toward the arena. She wore a pale purple dress that trailed along the ground and held an ancient zither in her arms, looking as though she had stepped out of a painting. Her delicate face was untouched by makeup, yet radiated fresh elegance. Her dark, ebony eyes were utterly calm. What an ethereal beauty!
[The Leads’ First Flirtatious Moment]
She realized she was leaning against a warm, broad chest, and came to her senses at once. She hurriedly pulled herself free of someone’s embrace, only to find herself looking straight into a pair of eyes brimming with teasing laughter.
Feixue blushed from head to toe. At a loss, she quickly stood up, her beautiful eyes darting awkwardly in every direction as she avoided his gaze. Trying to cover her embarrassment, she put on a calm expression and said, “You’re awake.”
Yiyun rose unhurriedly and brushed the dirt and leaves from his clothes with an elegant flick. He grinned brightly. “Of course. A startled little rabbit just leapt out of my arms. How could I stay asleep?”
“How did I become a rabbit? How can you talk like that...” Feixue wasn’t pleased. How could he compare her to a rabbit? What did she have in common with one?
“Come on, milady. I let you use me as a cushion all night, and now my whole body is stiff and sore. I make one little joke, and you get upset? This is so unfair!” Yiyun even pouted and blinked his deep, shining eyes, looking as if he had suffered a terrible injustice. But how ridiculous it was to see someone usually so commanding suddenly acting coy.
“Pfft!” Feixue couldn’t hold back and burst out laughing at his antics.
To her surprise, Yiyun kept going. “No laughing! You have to make it up to me!”
Feixue didn’t take him seriously. She had no idea he could be so cute. “Hehe, all right. I promise.”
A glint suddenly flashed in Yiyun’s eyes. Little rabbit, you promised! At last, he broke into a sly grin, as if his scheme had succeeded. “It’s a promise, then. Don’t forget!”
“Uh...” Why did she feel like she’d fallen into a trap again? Was he plotting something?
[The Amazing Zither Realm Technique]
Feixue sat on the ground and rested the Luoxia Zither on her knees. Her hands touched the strings, and a stream of delicate notes flowed out, like a mountain spring trickling past and sending ripples through the air. Feixue closed her eyes and focused on the dancing notes and the ripples they stirred in the air. At that moment, the intangible notes became her eyes, carrying her to explore every corner of the ground around her.
The zither music rose slowly, then spread outward like a tide. Its gentle, tranquil melody drifted and swayed in delicate strands, as though whispering something. At that moment, everything around her became one with her. She was the breeze drifting by, brushing the tender leaves and playing among the falling ones. In the stillness of the night, a peaceful, soothing mood spread through the air...
