Poison Master: The Estranged Heiress

Trapped within the damaged walls of her mansion located in Yuchang City, Princess Cheng found herself confined alongside her grandmother, a fallen figure within the royal circle. The elder royal was placed under house arrest, accused of involvement in promoting illicit markets and fostering corruption within the realm. Xuan Cheng, residing in poverty alongside her grandmother and two aged attendants, was compelled to mature prematurely due to these circumstances. Motivated by a fierce will to escape poverty and make sure that no one could mistreat her, Xuan Cheng committed herself to learning a variety of trades and skills in order to support herself. Xuan Cheng was gifted with the ability to heal herself in addition to her grandfather's Seven Cultivation and grandmother's Jade Eyes. She immerses herself in her grandfather's collection of books and risks everything to cultivate fearlessly on her own. At night, she would go out and battle evil cultivators who would frequently obstruct her travel plans. She founded "Duyi Pharmacy" in order to aid the underprivileged and give back to the Almighty in the form of charitable donations. Xuan Cheng is a lone cultivator of Qi who exceeded the Tian Limit. In a world where the Evil Lord had eradicated factions and groups of cultivators, Xuan Cheng encountered someone akin to her: Prince Zhao Ming, the sole individual wielding demonic Qi across the entire Diqiu realm. They both had weaknesses that affected each other, but their unspoken love made them each other's pillars of strength. Betrayal by people they trusted brought them closer, forcing them to rely on each other even more. However, fate kept testing them with many challenges and trials.

Confirming the crimes of most trusted person

Zhao Ming materialized in the air in the corner of the garden; the purplish obsidian fumes dissipated as he stood there, staring at the gate. 

He was mentally preparing himself to confront his officers, who had imprisoned his uncle wrongfully. Minister Zheng was the only person who cared for him; his love was never shared with anyone. The least bit of affection he had for Zhao Ming's siblings was solely because of Zhao Ming. 

He was caught in a dilemma at first, whether to leave Xuan Cheng after the drain of energy she had before or to free his uncle. Just to ease himself, he transferred his cultivation energy and helped Xuan Cheng regain a bit of the internal damage. 

His heart felt a sharp pain again and he sprayed out blood. He felt weak after the transfer of Qi; he had never done that before. It was natural for him to make mistakes and injure himself. But for the moment, he was unaware of how he had endangered himself by saving Xuan Cheng.
