Summary
For fifteen years, Banruo Village was the only world Bai Ye had ever known—a land steeped in mystical arts, restless spirits, and formidable beasts. Raised solely by her grandfather, she found solace in his unwavering presence. But her peaceful existence was shattered when he was brutally murdered.
As grief consumed her, the one person she had cherished since childhood delivered the ultimate betrayal, leaving her no path but one—death. Yet, even as she sought release in the abyss, fate had other plans. Death refused to claim her.
Instead, something deep within her stirred—a dormant power bound to her bloodline. Before she could grasp its meaning, a mysterious figure emerged from the shadows, offering an escape: the Erudition Trials in the Imperial City. With danger closing in and her former fiancé tightening his grasp, Bai Ye had no choice but to step into the unknown.
