Yun Ji

Lu Mingshu had never believed in fate.
She hadn’t believed in it when her father had remarried and caused her family to break into pieces, nor had she believed in it when she’d been thrown into a valley to perish.
She hadn’t believed in it when she didn’t have any resources to cultivate with, nor had she believed in it when she’d been condemned by everyone.
She climbed up little by little from dust, while her reign soared into the sky, which caused the world to look on in fear!
If justice doesn’t come, I’ll personally obtain it.
If fate disregards me, I‘ll open up a way to survive.
No matter what fate throws at me, I will surely become a phoenix!
“What a ruthless woman. I’m willing to risk my life and limbs for you, willing to be calculative for you – I’m even willing to be an enemy of the entire world for you. Aren’t you moved even a little?”
“That’s right, since I‘m such a ruthless woman, what exactly is it that you like about me?"

Lu Mingshu was shocked. On the precipice today, she had used the dagger left behind by Yan Wugui to stab the cliff in order to stop her fall. However, because she had stabbed it too deep at a high altitude, she was unable to retrieve it. Hence, she abandoned it on top of the nest.

She knew this item might get her into trouble, so she did not even give it a second glance after Zuo Yiming took it down from the precipice. In order to draw attention away from it, she acted as if it was an ordinary dagger. Unexpectedly however, the other party was more attentive than she had thought — they actually noticed this small detail.

Her mind was spinning, but she responded, "This disciple does not understand Hall Head Zhou's words."

Zhou Yinru's face darkened. "Don't think you can fool us by acting dumb. Don't tell me you want to say that this dagger is yours?"
