I met Mingling two years ago.
At that time, I had just turned 18. And at the same time, my father and the ruler of a neighboring country went to war.
Because Xichu became prosperous under the rule of the father emperor, the peaceful and prosperous appearance of the people attracted the neighboring country, which is the one known for its barbarism, Bei Ming Kingdom.
Their military strength is far superior to Xichu, and soon several border cities fell. At this time, the father emperor received a secret letter from Bei Ming, stating that if he married the Ninth Princess, they would withdraw their troops.
At that time, I was just as stunned when I heard the news from my mother as I am now.
I would never agree to marry into a barbaric land where the husband dies and the son follows, despite being raised in luxury since childhood.
After learning this news, I escaped from the palace through a secret passage with some money in the dead of night.
Coincidentally, this secret passage was the one that Father Emperor told me about before the war with Bei Ming.
But now, it has become my only way to escape. Just out of the palace, all I wanted was to get as far away as possible. Following the instructions in the book, I also changed into men's clothing, afraid of attracting attention.
But it's strange, I've been away from Kyoto for a month now, and still haven't heard any news of the emperor ordering my arrest. Perhaps the emperor is considering our father-daughter relationship and has spared my life.
From then on, I traveled around the world, experiencing the bustling places described in books.
Perhaps I was too extravagant, and soon I was targeted by a group of thieves.
At that time, I was on a flower boat on the river, enjoying the beautiful scenery and composing poetry, when suddenly a knife was held to my neck.
I was extremely scared.
I handed over all the silver as the person demanded, just to save my life. The thief weighed the silver in their hand, then looked at me with a disgusted expression.
"What's this, even husband has ears."
With one word spoken, I knew that my identity had been exposed by them. As I looked at the dark night by the river with only one boat, my heart grew cold.
I have nowhere to escape.
I naturally didn't want to be caught by this group of people. I used all my strength to break free from the crowd, then without looking back, I jumped into the river.
I'm not very good at swimming, but seeing those people jumping off the boat to catch me, I had no choice but to keep swimming tirelessly forward.
It was a long time before I realized that no one was chasing me anymore.
My limbs became extremely heavy, and I couldn't muster any strength. Even though the shore was right in front of me, I couldn't reach it.
Am I going to die here?
I really can't accept it.
I reached out my right hand, wanting to get closer to that cold light shining through the water's surface, but I couldn't touch it no matter how hard I tried.
As I continued to dive deeper, my vision gradually became blurry, and everything in front of me became darker and colder.
I might be close to death.
Just as I lowered my head, ready to accept my fate, a hand firmly grabbed me.
I can no longer see clearly, but I still remember that it was a pair of strong hands that pulled me out of the abyss.
That person was Mingling.
After being rescued and brought ashore, I coughed for a long time before finally coughing up the dirty water.
Looking at Mingling standing by the candlelight with neat clothes, I couldn't help but ask, "How come your clothes aren't wet?"
Perhaps my words caught Mingling's attention to my soaked and embarrassed appearance.
Mingling cast a spell on me, and suddenly my whole body felt warm, and my clothes quickly dried.
I feel incredible, chasing Mingling and asking him what this is, he tells me this is the Cleanse Decision.
What is this again?
I was full of curiosity about the person in front of me, and I chased after him all night, only to find out that there really are immortals in this world.
And he is one of the cultivators who wants to become an immortal.
Mingling Tell me, in this world, there are three major divisions: the mortal realm, the cultivation realm, and the demon realm. I am currently at the intersection of the mortal realm and the cultivation realm.
Mortal beings can cultivate immortality and extend their lifespans, but most people do not have the opportunity to enter this path, so there are not many who know about cultivation.
It's as if a new world has opened up to me, and I quickly asked Mingling if I had a fateful encounter.
But Mingling fell silent the moment they saw me ask this question.
For a long time, he finally told me that I am not suitable for cultivating immortality. My fate is thin, but it is a wealthy and prosperous destiny. Even if placed in an ordinary family, I can live a peaceful and happy life.
