She is an embattled imperial princess bearing the bloodline of the Medicine Phoenix. Returning with the Medicine King's Heavenly Scripture, she vows to incinerate her enemies and defy fate.
He is a young God of War, marked with dragon-scale curse sigils between his brows. The emperor's sharpest blade, he is also a medicinal vessel raised by the royal family, and knows his life is no more than a piece on a chessboard.
A conspiracy brings their two paths of ruin together. When she bites his neck and uses phoenix blood to break his curse, it is both salvation and conquest.
When he willingly becomes her blade and falls at her hands, it is both submission and rebellion against the order of things.
From pawns to players, they will become each other's sole conspirators. They will use imperial power as their furnace and their enemies' blood as kindling, forging a conflagration that will consume the heavens!
The Medicine Phoenix returns, and fate begins anew. The Seven-Star Purgatory will burn imperial power to ashes!
But neither knows that from the moment they met, they had already stepped into a meticulously arranged destiny. The bloodlines and hatreds they believe in may have rested on a false foundation from the very beginning.
The Medicine Phoenix returns, or is it all an earth-shattering deception? When the truth is revealed, who is the true player behind the board...?
