My father broke his vow and betrayed my mother, the woman with whom he had once sworn eternal love. People used to say my mother was blessed, because my father had abolished his harem for her. But they did not know she was no ordinary woman: she gave up the throne of the Phoenix Clan to be with him. I envied the unbreakable bond between my parents. I, too, found the consort I wanted. He told me that among three thousand beauties, he would choose only me. But in the end, my father betrayed my mother. He had fallen for a beautiful princess from the Western Regions. My consort deceived me as well, bringing back his wife and children. On the day my father remarried, my mother chose to ascend and return to the Phoenix Clan. As I watched my consort’s family living happily together, I swallowed a phoenix pill and awakened my divine bloodline. When they learned that my mother and I had left, they went mad.
