Vangyy

Li Hua's reign as the twenty-first century's deadliest assassin ended in fire and betrayal. Her own sister, Li Min, turned their elite force against her, leaving nothing but ashes where a legend once stood.

In the moment of her death, Li Hua's soul tore free from its earthly bonds, hurtling across the boundaries between worlds until it anchored itself in a new vessel in a realm of ancient martial arts and mystical cultivation. Through this impossible transition, her inner space remained intact—and with it, Little Firefly, her spirit companion.

Here, where qi flows like rivers and mountains bow to those who master their cultivation, Li Hua will forge herself anew. No longer content to be merely an assassin of mortal flesh, she sets her sights on ascending to immortality itself—a journey that will shake the very foundations of heaven.

DEDICATION
To those of us whose cultivation path always leads to immortals with questionable morals and perfect jaw lines.
May your daddy issues transcend the three realms and be rewarded with an ancient being who knows exactly what he's doing.

"Wei'er," their father called to his eldest, "make sure Bai Ying is settled in the outer courtyard for the night. And please—" he added with a knowing look, "ensure she understands the difference between spirit flowers and regular grass this time."

Li Wei nodded, already heading toward where the frost tiger had been watching their punishment with curious eyes. Ice crystals sparkled in her fur as she rose to follow him.

"Hao'er, your mother needs help with the evening meal preparations," their father continued, then turned to Li Hua. "And Hua'er... the herb garden needs tending."
