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..."

Collecting Flowers (Part One)

In Silver Sword City, life after returning from the expedition to see the eclipse was very different from what Wu Ling had expected, either when he left or on the trip back. His mother's explosive revelations had upended much of his thinking about the future and placed his feet firmly on a new path. 

Despite his desire to act on all of the information his mother had shared, the fact remained that Wu Ling still needed several days of staying off of his injured foot before he would be able to return to training and undertake any kind of adventures or sect missions with Su Xiang. Left with little choice in the matter, he settled into a different form of routine at home than the one he'd enjoyed before leaving on the expedition.
