Journey to Immortality (2)

The sect master's daughter, however, was a different story.

Though she was much stronger in cultivation than Shen, she was naive, having never left the sect in the sixteen years since she had begun her training.

The sect master, concerned for her well-being, needed someone he could trust to guard her on a journey to the mortal world.

He hired Shen, entrusting him with the task of accompanying his daughter for one year.

During this time, as they faced tribulations and challenges together, the man and the girl began to develop deep feelings for each other.

Shen, though weaker in cultivation, had lived nearly a century and possessed a wisdom and experience far beyond his years.

His keen insight allowed him to see through plots and schemes, protecting the girl on multiple occasions.

When they returned to the sect after their year-long journey, the sect master did not oppose their budding love.
