The Alchemist Who Defied Fate

---



Shu Yi was born into the prestigious Shu Family, where her talents as an alchemist were overshadowed by her gender. When she refuses an arranged marriage meant to strengthen her family’s power, she is cast out and forced to fend for herself in the martial arts world of Xia Continent.



Determined to live life on her own terms, Shu Yi faces countless challenges—rival clans, powerful sects, and her own self-doubt. But when she discovers a shocking truth—that the family who raised her is not her real family—her journey takes a new turn.



Shu Yi sets out to find her true parents, only to learn they are captives in a distant continent, oppressed by the strongest sect in the martial world. Armed with her wits, alchemical skills, and a sharp tongue, Shu Yi must pass through a world that constantly underestimates her.
