Zhu Yanyin’s smile froze on his face, wait wait, what were you talking about just now?

Wanren Palace’s Palace Master, Li Sui — not a demon, but more demonic than one.

He lifted his eyelids, lazily and leisurely examining the person before him: “You also want to crusade against the Demon Cult?”

Zhu Yanyin hurriedly refuted: “No I don’t, I just want to stroll onto the stage when two sides are fighting, and charm the entire jianghu with my astonishingly elegant demeanor.” <<less

In order to be faithful to the role of supporting male lead, I worked my bones off and built the best family.

My family, which I had reestablished so tenaciously, was on the verge of collapsing.

However, the biggest problem was…

“Why did I become that villainess!?”

“Our Housemistress, isn’t she a chance given by God to revive the North Sea Ice Palace?”

“I never thought that Housemistress would think about us like this… I was really touched.”

…Why do you all look so affectionate like that?

Moreover,

“Sometimes, I feel like Wife is too good for me.”

The male lead’s gaze which was staring at me sparkled with endless obsession.

“… Still, I don’t want to let you go.”

No, I mean, the original female lead has appeared, right? Why are you like this to me!? <<less

Can jianghu wanderers ever refrain from messing around?... more>>

The turbulence of the world fostered us, whose existence upon joining jianghu going by as quick as a blink.*

"In this world where war erupts throughout, jianghu is a cycle of vengeance and retribution. You either persist, or you perish."

Many years ago, a young Chu Xiwei who recently joined the sect was chilled to the bone by those words he happened to have heard.

Seeing that his young disciple was scared quite enough, Ye Fusheng leisurely sipped his tea, "What I just said is pure nonsense."

Every young chivalrous individuals joining jianghu would happen upon one martial art scroll or another. Ye Fusheng was so often tricked by this preconception in his younger years that when he got older, he decided to hoard other people's scrolls.

But jianghu didn't work as simply as that.

It was a society of using one's might to carve one's path, of competing for artifacts and debating one's skills.

Legends would never fade with the withering time, just as hatred would not disappear in a peaceful age.

As the golden time passed, all splendor would be reduced to dust. With it, Glimpse of Grace** was sealed away from the world.
