After Her Brothers Had Her Bones Scraped and Heart Torn Out, She Came Back to Life

Guan Ning is the youngest princess of Beixuan. Brilliant and exceptionally gifted in martial cultivation, she is carefully nurtured by the emperor and empress and lovingly protected by her five older brothers. She grows up the center of everyone's attention.

Then, one day when she is fourteen, her beloved brothers suddenly turn on her. They conspire to injure her, take her spiritual bones and heart, and give them to Princess Qin Yang. They also accuse her of poisoning the empress dowager, then dump her body in the world's filthiest place, a land teeming with demons and miasma.

When an enemy nation once invaded with an army of beasts, the emperor and empress were helpless. Guan Ning drove the invaders back on her own and nearly lost her life.

When her eldest brother was attacked by a magical beast and lay at death's door, Guan Ning gave him her own inner core to heal him.

When her second brother's cultivation went awry and drove him into madness, she guided him through the crisis.

When her third brother was poisoned, she ventured deep into the snowy wastes of the Northern Wilds to find an antidote for him...

She regarded them as her dearest family, but they saw her as nothing more than a tool to prolong their eldest sister's life.

Guan Ning, who should have been reduced to bones, miraculously came back to life. Two years later, she was brought back to the imperial palace of Beixuan.

Everyone thought her cultivation had been crippled and that she was a weak nobody they could bully. They had no idea she had already been secretly growing stronger.

"From now on, I'll take back what's mine, and I'll seize what's not mine, too."

The emperor orders Guan Ning to marry for peace in Nanliang, wedding the emperor of Nanliang's biological uncle.

Guan Ning says there's no way she'll marry for peace. If it comes to it, they can go to war. She alone can repel an army of a million.

A certain royal uncle gives his fan a gentle wave, his eyes crinkling with a smile. "If Your Highness truly doesn't wish to grace Nanliang with your presence, how about I go to Beixuan and marry for peace instead?"
