Li Hua's reign as the twenty-first century's deadliest assassin ended in fire and betrayal. Her own sister, Li Min, turned their elite force against her, leaving nothing but ashes where a legend once stood.

In the moment of her death, Li Hua's soul tore free from its earthly bonds, hurtling across the boundaries between worlds until it anchored itself in a new vessel in a realm of ancient martial arts and mystical cultivation. Through this impossible transition, her inner space remained intact—and with it, Little Firefly, her spirit companion.

Here, where qi flows like rivers and mountains bow to those who master their cultivation, Li Hua will forge herself anew. No longer content to be merely an assassin of mortal flesh, she sets her sights on ascending to immortality itself—a journey that will shake the very foundations of heaven.

DEDICATION
To those of us whose cultivation path always leads to immortals with questionable morals and perfect jaw lines.
May your daddy issues transcend the three realms and be rewarded with an ancient being who knows exactly what he's doing.

When they finally reached the front of the line, a young woman in sect robes sat behind a table covered in scrolls and registration materials. Her hair was tied neatly back with a silver pin, and she processed each new arrival with practiced efficiency. The siblings presented their jade tablets, and her eyes widened dramatically as she traced the ancient inscriptions carved into their surfaces. Without a word, she leaped up from her seat and took off running toward the inner courtyard, her robes billowing behind her as she disappeared through an ornate archway, leaving Li Wei and Li Hua staring after her in confusion.
