The Peach Blossom Spirit loved Huo Shun. Having accompanied him for over twenty years, her feelings had long since taken deep root. She still remembered the first time she met him; he was a newborn, on the brink of death due to premature birth and congenital illness.
Huo Shun’s grandfather was a renowned Mystic Gate Master. Refusing to violate the laws of heaven and earth by seizing another’s destiny pattern to save his grandson, he found himself targeted by his own son and daughter-in-law. Eventually, the rest of the Huo Family moved abroad, leaving only the old man and his grandson behind. Seeing that the infant was both pitiable and adorable, the Peach Blossom Spirit possessed Huo Shun, helping him cling to life. Elder Huo, unaware that a spirit had saved his grandson, believed heaven had shown mercy; he washed his hands of the mystic world and never interfered in such matters again.
For all these years, the Peach Blossom Spirit had shielded Huo Shun, and she could no longer bear the thought of leaving him. She was prepared to risk her centuries of cultivation to protect him.
