The Little Ancestress Starts a New Life

Gongliang You, the young lady of one of Dongrong City's leading families, was sent to the remote wilderness to escape danger after a calamity struck when she was born. After surviving countless brushes with death, she returned to her family sixteen years later. Rumor had it that she had suffered terribly in the wilderness, leaving her disfigured and mute. But when she descended from the heavens, her breathtaking beauty left everyone speechless. The crowd was furious. What fool had started such a ridiculous rumor? They said she was unloved. The entire Gongliang family lined up from top to bottom, each member firing back a retort. Their spit alone could drown someone. They said she had no spiritual power and knew nothing about cultivation. The magical beasts of Huangcheng Mountain protested as one, begging their little ancestor to come and prove them wrong. They said she was ignorant and knew nothing of the value of alchemical pills. But the high-grade pills that people would pay a fortune for were just things she made for fun. And Ghostbane, the only pill shop in Dongrong City, was just a business she ran for fun. They said she had no backing, and that even if she ascended to immortality, she could only be a lowly servant. But the disciple she had casually taken in was the ruler of the demon realm. The seven most gifted Divine Lords in the immortal realm were all willing to serve her. And most terrifying of all, her master could shake the Three Realms just by stamping his foot. [Bonus Scene] Atop Cloudmist Mountain, Gongliang You pointed her sword at the high platform. “Three hundred years ago, you joined forces with the Heavenly Dao Palace and the Four Great Sects to drive me off the Immortal-Slaying Platform, then imprisoned me in the Ghost Realm for three hundred years. Do you regret it?” “Not for a moment.” “Then don’t blame me for showing no mercy.” The man on the platform swept his wide sleeve and pulled the fierce-looking Gongliang You into his arms, smiling indulgently. “The Heavenly Dao Palace and the Four Great Sects were nothing more than stepping stones on your path to ascension. There’s no need to show them mercy.”
