With Heaven-Defying Talent, I Actually Became Lu Xueqi

Qingyun World.

In the back mountain of Xiaozhu Peak, Qingyun Sect.

Under the shade of green, the hackberry trees swayed.

A gentle breeze brushed by, bamboo leaves clattered together, producing a crisp “hua la la” sound that drifted through the air along with the falling leaves.

On a massive stone platform at the back of the mountain, a young woman in a pale moon-white Daoist robe sat quietly in meditation.

Her long, jet-black hair cascaded down to her waist like a waterfall, and her fair face was framed by elegant, curved brows.

Her clear and deep eyes shone with a cold, resolute light, and her long lashes trembled slightly, adding a touch of softness to her features.

Beneath her delicate nose, her cherry-red lips exuded a cool and aloof aura.

Her skin was smooth and radiant, glowing faintly in the sunlight like white jade carved from sheep’s fat; from a distance, she looked like a celestial maiden untouched by the world.

At first glance, she seemed focused on cultivation.

But if one looked closely, even though she sat quietly on the stone platform, traces of worry would sometimes flicker across her face.

Lu Xueqi frowned slightly, her mind constantly replaying the information she had gathered recently, and she could not help but mutter to herself:

“That Qi Hao must be a transmigrator.”

The current Lu Xueqi was no longer the one from the original story.

In her previous life, she had been nothing more than an ordinary office worker in modern society.

That late night, after finishing the tasks her boss had given her, she dragged her exhausted body home.

But by accident, she missed a step and fell into an uncovered manhole, losing her life on the spot.

In that moment of falling, her head was filled with only one thought: “Who the hell stole the manhole cover! Damn thief!”

When she opened her eyes again, Lu Xueqi found herself in this unfamiliar world, becoming a newborn baby girl in the Lu family village at the foot of Qingyun Mountain.

Strangely, she still retained her memories from her previous life.

When she had first transmigrated, Lu Xueqi had been full of excitement, thinking that living another life with her memories was far better than a rebirth without them.

At that time, her heart was full of hope for the future, dreaming of how she would make her mark in this world after growing up.

However, a stream of urine mercilessly dragged her back to reality, shattering her grand ambitions.

Only then did she realize she had actually transmigrated into a girl!

One had to know, in her previous life, she had been a man!

This fact was hard for Lu Xueqi to accept at first, and she felt as if the sky was falling.

But as time passed, she gradually adapted to her new identity.

“A girl is fine. Being able to live a second life is already a great fortune, especially with my memories.”

She could only comfort herself this way.

Later, Lu Xueqi learned that she was born in the Lu family village, and that not far from the village stood Qingyun Mountain.

After she saw many sword-riding immortals flying above Qingyun Mountain, Lu Xueqi immediately realized she had transmigrated into a world of cultivation.

When she turned six, her parents spent a great deal of money to invite the village teacher to give her a name—Lu Xueqi.

The moment she heard this name, her heart trembled violently.

“Qingyun Mountain… Lu Xueqi…”

She repeated these two words over and over, a bold and frightening guess rising in her heart.

Could it be that she had transmigrated into the world of Qingyun and become the main heroine of the original story?

Thinking about Lu Xueqi’s fate in the original work, she could not help but shiver.

In the original story, Lu Xueqi possessed extraordinary talent and, after joining Qingyun Sect, became a disciple of Master Shuiyue.

With careful guidance, she reached the eighth level of the Jade Purity Realm at a very young age.

At the Seven Peaks Tournament, she took second place; had she not been injured in her battle with Zhang Xiaofan beforehand, she might have defeated Qi Hao and taken the championship.

After learning her identity and realizing there were immortals on Qingyun Mountain, Lu Xueqi began to pay close attention to the Qingyun Sect.

When she turned eight, her chance finally came.

Master Shuiyue of Xiaozhu Peak in Qingyun Sect passed by Lu family village, planning to buy supplies in the village.

Upon hearing this, Lu Xueqi knew this was an opportunity she could not miss, so she took the initiative to appear before Master Shuiyue.

With her delicate, porcelain-doll-like appearance, she immediately caught Master Shuiyue’s eye.

The more Master Shuiyue looked, the more she liked her, and soon the thought of accepting a disciple arose.

She used her divine sense to check Lu Xueqi’s aptitude.

After the examination, Master Shuiyue was overjoyed—Lu Xueqi’s talent was one in a million!

Master Shuiyue discussed taking her as a disciple with Lu Xueqi’s parents.

The Lu couple did not hesitate at all and gladly agreed.

In their eyes, having their daughter become a disciple of an immortal was the highest honor for their family; how could they refuse?

And so, Lu Xueqi followed Master Shuiyue up Qingyun Mountain.

After joining the sect, she lived up to expectations. Relying on her maturity and acute sense of danger that far exceeded her peers, she cultivated diligently day and night.

In less than ten years, her cultivation reached the ninth level of the Jade Purity Realm, just one step away from the Upper Purity Realm.

If she had been the original Lu Xueqi, she might have been distracted by a child’s nature.

But now, Lu Xueqi was a transmigrator with memories of her past life, fully aware that only strength mattered in this world where the strong ruled.

Therefore, she devoted all her energy to cultivation and far surpassed the original’s progress at the same age.

Master Shuiyue was extremely satisfied with her hardworking and disciplined disciple, not only teaching her with great care but also passing down the Qingyun Sect’s ultimate skill—the Divine Sword Lightning Controlling Art.

She looked forward to Lu Xueqi shining in the upcoming Seven Peaks Tournament and bringing the long-lost championship back to Xiaozhu Peak.

At this rate, with Lu Xueqi’s cultivation speed, it was almost certain she would break through to the Upper Purity Realm before the Seven Peaks Tournament.

By then, with her Upper Purity cultivation, even facing Qi Hao, who had cultivated for a hundred years, she would be able to fight him head-on.

However, just a month ago, something unexpected happened outside Xiaozhu Peak.

Qi Hao, the top disciple of Longshou Peak, somehow learned her name and tried to visit her again and again.

Lu Xueqi instinctively resisted this sudden visitor—not only did she refuse to meet him, she also asked her senior sisters to keep Qi Hao away from their peak.

When Master Shuiyue learned about this, she immediately ordered that Qi Hao was forbidden to set foot on Xiaozhu Peak.

To the head of Xiaozhu Peak, Lu Xueqi was her carefully nurtured future leader—how could she let others covet her so easily?

In the past, Master Shuiyue had recognized Qi Hao’s talent, and among the young generation of Qingyun, only Xiao Yicai of Tongtian Peak was superior.

But now, seeing Lu Xueqi reach the ninth level of the Jade Purity Realm in less than ten years, talents like Qi Hao no longer even mattered in her eyes.
