The plot of the novel written by Yu Qing is very simple. It's the story of a girl from a privileged background who faces great adversity, chances upon a fortuitous encounter, and ultimately embarks on the path of cultivation.
Although the storyline is clichéd, the details are quite innovative, and the writing is beautiful, making it a pleasant read.
However, the poison point soon appears. When the protagonist achieves success in cultivation and returns to her hometown, she finds her childhood friend forced to marry a rich woman in her forties.
The protagonist wants to rescue the boy, but to her surprise, he tearfully refuses, expressing that he also loves her. However, he is an ordinary person, and cannot be with a cultivator for long, so he decides to stay and marry the rich woman, accepting his mundane destiny.
On the wedding night of the boy and the rich woman, the protagonist stands silently outside the window, listening to the impassioned scene inside.
