Retainer to the heir of the province, an absurd step up from a girl who lived on the street a year before. Now she faces a strange prospect, peace.

But she has much to learn, and now that she has proven herself, the Argent Peak Sect has much to teach an inner disciple.

The world is in motion, and Ling Qi can hardly count the number of loose ends and new business she has to tie up.
