[Romantic Rivals + 1V7 + Cultivation + All Leads Are Chaste]
Su Yueliu is a nine-tailed fox who cultivates through the power of yin and the stars.
The imperial dragon aura is an excellent stepping stone for cultivation.
So Su Yueliu invested in countless poor scholars, hoping to marry into an official family and become a titled lady. But her money vanished like water down a drain, and not a single scholar made the list.
They were all useless good-for-nothings!
Su Yueliu gritted her teeth in fury. She decided to simply take on a male appearance and sit the exam herself.
Perhaps because incidents involving demons, ghosts, and evil spirits had become increasingly common, this year’s exam results came with an announcement about recruiting talented people from all walks of life.
It said that, at the emperor’s suggestion, the court planned to trial a special imperial examination in the capital, open to talented people from all backgrounds, regardless of their origins or sect.
Fuming, Su Yueliu immediately decided to make one last trip to a tomb to scrounge up some money, then head north to the capital and take the exam herself.
You can’t keep visiting the riverbank without getting your shoes wet. This time, some unknown, bewitching ghost took over the graveyard, dragged her into an illusion, and gave her a bracelet that didn’t exist.
The eldest son of a merchant family and owner of the Myriad Treasures Merchant Guild was willing to stake himself in a wager and lose himself to her;
The capital’s most notorious playboy, hated by cats and dogs alike, was clearly clever but refused to study, and chased after her, begging to learn magic;
A refined young man sent down the mountain by the court to gain experience followed her, learning to fight demons and exorcise evil, and risked his life to prove his love;
The most carefree and uninhibited man in the wilderness declared that, from then on, he had someone to care about...
Su Yueliu thought to herself: This can’t be right. I only wanted to land an official post and absorb some dragon aura to cultivate. How did I end up with so many little followers?
