On the night of the Lantern Festival, the entire Su family in Chang'an was wiped out. A raging fire burned for three days and nights.
Su Yanlin, who perished in the flames at the age of ten, left no remains behind.
Ten years later, a woman named Yanling returned to Chang'an, carrying a blade-cold resolve.
She is a lone wolf who moves through the darkness, with ten years of bloody vengeance in her heart. She advances carefully, determined to uncover the truth behind the massacre and make every enemy pay in blood!
