An Illustrated Guide to the Women of the Immortal Capital

Qingxi County finally produced someone important enough to visit the Immortal Capital!

Shen Zhaowei placed first in the provincial exam, becoming the hope of all Qingxi.

Some envied her, because she was about to become an immortal master.

Others were sad, afraid she might never come back.

But in the Immortal Capital, the hope of an entire county could become insignificant, reduced to a nobody with permission to stay for only fifteen days.

Shen Zhaowei wanted to stay.

Not for fame or fortune, but to see just how far someone like her could go.

The people of the Immortal Capital looked down on her, but Shen Zhaowei had bright eyes and a battered bronze mirror her mother had left her.

She was best at seeing what others could not: stolen spiritual energy, forgotten alchemical recipes, people underestimated by everyone, and secrets hidden beneath the Immortal Capital’s splendor...

At first, they asked what gave her the right to stay.

Later, the entire Immortal Capital had to wait for her approval.

Reading Guide:

2. There is a male lead, but he is not the only one. Several romances run through the heroine’s growth and transformation.
