Unparalleled Artist: Unlikely Hero

Following his father's murder, Wu Ling's mother returned to the life of a courtesan, disguising her young son as a girl to take refuge in the Bamboo Silk House, a women's only sect dedicated to the arts. Now, as his powers awaken, he'll find himself torn between protecting his family and the goals of powerful cultivators who see him as a means to an end. "Wu Ling, I've accepted a marriage proposal on your behalf," the bewitching Hall Master of the Bamboo Silk House declared. "When you enter the Inner Sect, you'll enter under the name 'Hua Qianhu', fiancee of a young lord of the Liang family." "Hall Master, that's impossible!" Wu Ling protested. "Even if you ignore my relationship with Meifeng, I might have dressed well enough to hide as a mortal woman but I could never..." "So you truly didn't realize what you were doing," the Hall Master said, a dark smile on her lips. "Little Ling, you're a natural-born Shapeshifter. I'll teach you what you need to know," she said, her features shifting until she looked like a mirror image of the stunned Wu Ling. "As long as you follow my arrangements and learn my techniques, it isn't impossible for you to reunite with Meifeng..." "But you should consider Young Lord Liang carefully," the Hall Master added. "His affection for you is genuine. Perhaps, one day, you'll even feel the same for him..."

The Power of ‘Attraction’

"That, you, bro-sister, um, I," Yu Jinqi stammered, his face turning a brilliant shade of crimson as he stared at Wu Ling's enchanting face. The young artist had come so close that he could see his reflection in her, his, his silvery eyes. His body didn't know how to react, his heart raced and his breathing quickened, just as it should respond to a beautiful woman coming so close to him but his mind railed at him that this was his good friend, Brother Wu!

"What about you, Big Brother Fang," Wu Ling said, turning away from the flustered alchemist to focus on the group's other scholar. "Am I, what was your word? Convincing enough?"

"Gah, Sister Qianhu, stop it!" Su Xiang said, standing up from her seat to grab Wu Ling's hand and pull him away from the two flustered scholars. "You shouldn't pick on them, they don't know how to defend themselves!"
