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.

Gossips and rumors

In the heart of ancient Zhao, during the reign of its second emperor, a remarkable architectural gem known as the Moon Palace stood tall and proud.

Xuan Cheng had heard of it before from her grandmother and always dreamt of visiting it with her, however, her dream came half true. She was about to visit the moon palace but not with her grandmother.

In the softly lit inner chamber, Maid Qu moved with grace and precision as she adorned Xuan Cheng in a resplendent white silk robe that seemed to shimmer like moonlight itself.

The robe was a masterpiece of craftsmanship, a canvas of purest white upon which the moon was elegantly depicted in delicate embroidery.

"Your Highness, the new jade headwear is more delicate and more beautiful than the previous ones," Huan complimented as she placed the newly crafted piece of art on the dressing table and retreated.
