Pian Fangfang

Meng Qianqian, at the age of 15, married into the Lu Family to bring joy to the elderly matriarch.

On the wedding night, urgent news arrived from the border that her husband had been commanded to go to war. Six months later, he tragically died at the hands of Beiliang soldiers.

Five years later, the husband who had been presumed dead returned, and by his side was an ethereal mute woman named Wan'er.

Lu Lingxiao said that Wan'er was the descendant of a loyal and righteous family, entirely different from her—a merchant girl reeking of copper coins. He claimed Wan'er was a true paragon of noble character.

Lu Lingxiao also said that Wan'er was an eagle soaring in the heavens, while someone like her was nothing more than a fragile flower, unworthy of comparison.

It was not until the land was broken, the city walls fell, and she wielded a Red Tassel Spear to crush countless soldiers that Lu Lingxiao realized he had misjudged her.

She was not a delicate flower confined within the depths of the mansion; she was the fiercest west wind of Yumen Pass.

Crowned by the Treacherous Big Shot

Xun Yu endured the pain, his face pale as he forced a smile. "Miss Bai, it's been a long time. Forgive me for making a fool of myself."


Bai Yuwei furrowed her brows deeply. "Are you stupid? You clearly can't fight, so why did you recklessly rush forward just now? If my Gu Technique didn't work in the forests of the Central Plains, you'd be dead by now!"


A blunt truth indeed. Bai Yuwei's dominance in Miaojiang was undisputed, but her grandfather once warned her that the insects in the Central Plains differed from those in Miaojiang, and her Gu Technique might not always be effective.


"Even if I rushed forward, it was of no use. In the end, it was still Miss Bai who saved me. That saying—'a Scholar is good for nothing'—turns out to be true."


"Enough of this." Bai Yuwei was unaccustomed to the overly courteous formalities of the Central Plains' folk, as if they wanted to bow a hundred times the moment they crossed paths.
