Ten years ago, Su Yunjin, heir to the Seven Sects, became an online singer under the pretense of studying. A decade later, the Seven Sects invited her to serve as the lead mentor on a talent show, taking the spot most anticipated by the audience—a position originally set for a popular young starlet. The moment the news broke, the entire internet exploded. “Who is this woman?” “Just some folk singer, and she gets to be the lead mentor?” “Why? What did Lulu lose to her?” Unwilling and indignant, the fans of the displaced starlet launched wave after wave of attacks against Su Yunjin online, furious at her appointment. But Su Yunjin merely smiled, unfazed, and calmly awaited the program’s start. When the show finally aired, Su Yunjin’s mountain songs sent shockwaves through the entire entertainment industry. “Whoa, she’s the successor of the Yueren Songs?” “She can sing both the River Chants and the Southern Creek Work Songs?” “That voice—heavenly! Absolutely incredible!” “And people said she wasn’t qualified? Hah, what a joke! How could a little starlet ever compare?” To all this, Su Yunjin only smiled. After all, mountain songs were the least remarkable skill in her inheritance. Yet, just as Su Yunjin set the entertainment world ablaze time and again, the man who had always made things difficult for her unexpectedly appeared and, without any self-restraint, proposed marriage?
"Yunjin, whatever you hear outside, don't take it to heart. Those people just love a spectacle and can't resist making a fuss. What do they know? They're all keyboard warriors these days, saying whatever comes to mind. Don't let those comments affect your mood."
In the lobby of Lushi Entertainment, Su Yunjin was browsing through online comments when the producer's voice sounded at her ear. She looked up, intending to comfort him, but the next moment, she was struck speechless.
The producer, who appeared to be in his early forties, stood before her with an anxious, almost guilty air, like a schoolboy caught in the act. If it had been any other unknown rookie, being treated so cautiously by the producer of a popular show right at the start of one’s career would have been a heady thrill.
But Su Yunjin was no ordinary artist.
She was the sole heir of the Seven Peaks Sect.
The seven grandmasters who’d raised her each possessed extraordinary skills. For as long as she could remember, those who came to the mountain seeking their help acted just like this producer: the slightest furrow of her brow and they would tremble in fear.
As a child, she’d found it amusing. But as she grew older and learned more about the ways of the world, she came to dislike such relationships.
So, ten years ago, at the age of twelve, she left the mountain under the pretext of studying.
While boarding at school, she would sneak off to internet cafes, using the web as her cover, and became an online singer.
