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 Wu Ling comes of age, he'll attempt to shed the disguise he's worn for so many years to step onto the path of cultivation. If only life would let him do so. Haunted by his father's enemies, Wu Ling leads a double life as the handsome Brother Wu Ling and the enchanting Sister Hua Qianhu.
Guided by a mysterious immortal master, Wu Ling will face the world's dangers with art as his weapon. His greatest challenge, however, may lie in matters of the heart: as he pursues the woman he loves in one guise, he is entangled by the affections of men captivated by the other. In a world where identity is fluid and love knows no bounds, can Wu Ling find true happiness without sacrificing half of who he is?
