Reborn as the Poisonous Legitimate Daughter

In her previous life, she was the legitimate daughter of the Grand General Dingbei and an heir to the Ghost Valley's poison and medicine arts. She mastered astrology and the Six Secret Teachings and Three Strategies, and could divine the Eight Trigrams as well as command troops and arrange battle formations. A senior monk had pronounced her “the Heaven-ordained Phoenix Maiden,” but she was betrayed by her cousin and fiancé. This extraordinary woman, heir to the Ghost Valley, went from a life of promise to having her family destroyed in a single day. When she opened her eyes again, she had returned for revenge. The world was a chessboard, and together they would decide life and death, settling the fate of the realm with a single move. With blood on her hands and mountains of bones beneath her feet, she sought vengeance for her family and schemed for the empire. She thought the road ahead would be difficult, but then a lovestruck man appeared out of nowhere. When she killed, he handed her the knife. When she fought in the palace, he secretly helped her rig the game. “Are you trying to compete with me for the throne?” “No.” “Then what are you after, sticking so close to me?” “You.”
