Summary
At the extravagant auction held by the infamous Gluttonous House, a frail young girl was caged in gold and displayed as a priceless treasure—coveted for her rare, furnace-like constitution. Greedy bidders flooded the hall, eager to possess her. But just as the auction reached its peak, the girl slowly opened her eyes. The cowardice and fear vanished, replaced by an icy sharpness that silenced the room.
She was no longer the weak and bullied third daughter of the Nalan family.
Inside that fragile shell now lived a top-tier assassin from the 21st century, reborn into the body of Nalan Hexi—a girl once dismissed as useless, with broken meridians and no spiritual talent.
But she didn’t need spiritual roots to change her fate.
Armed with medical mastery that defied logic and an unshakable will, she carved her own path. Let her so-called family plot and conspire—she had an entire dimension at her command and a mythical beast who bowed only to her.
Unwanted? Unloved? With a flick of her fingers, she shed her sickly appearance and unveiled beauty so breathtaking that elite guards practically lined up to serve her.
As for the domineering man who had pursued her since the day of the auction?
She scoffed. “My life is mine alone. I don’t belong to anyone.”
And yet the man simply smiled and replied, “Then let me belong to you.”
