Master, Spare My Life: A Disciple's Sweet Rebellion

Synopsis

Chu Ruo never expected that a simple nap would result in a one-way trip to a treacherous ancient world. Her luck only worsens when she is picked up by Nan Muxue, the cold and formidable Mistress of the Baihua Palace. Forced into a master-disciple relationship and bound by a lethal poison, Chu Ruo must navigate the martial arts world while cross-dressing as a male disciple. In her eyes, Nan Muxue is a beautiful but venomous snake; in Nan Muxue’s eyes, this new disciple is a cheeky mystery who disrupts her icy solitude. As they travel from the misty heights of Cloud-Piercing Peak to the bustling cities of the central plains, the power dynamic begins to shift. Chu Ruo’s modern wit and unexpected loyalty start to melt the frost around her master’s heart. However, secrets abound in the martial world, and between secret identities, rival sects, and the lingering threat of the poison in her veins, Chu Ruo finds that surviving her master’s training is the least of her worries. This is a tale of a spirited transmigrator and her icy master, where the most dangerous poison isn't found in a vial, but in the forbidden feelings blooming between them. Will Chu Ruo find a way to break her chains, or will she realize that being 'trapped' by her master is exactly where she wants to be?
