The Legend of the Holy Mother Fengxi

A fairy who could have lived out her life in peace in the Celestial Palace is brought to the mortal realm by a twist of fate. She becomes a consort and marries the emperor, but her heart is not in the palace. She sneaks out and meets a commoner named Yu Heng, only to be caught by the emperor and brought back to the palace, where she is placed under house arrest. After being confined several times, the heroine learns that she is nothing more than a lamp. In a fit of anger, she flies to the heavens, drinks the water of forgetfulness, and returns to the Celestial Palace. She cuts herself off from the mortal world and abandons all worldly desires, finally becoming a true god.
