She grips the bloodstained bone fan tightly. Behind her stands a loyal, battle-hardened god of war who has shattered the heavens to find her.
“For ten years in the mines, revenge was the only reason I stayed alive.”
On the night of her eighth birthday, Yun Zhao witnesses her entire family being slaughtered. Her mother presses a cold bone fan into her hand, then pushes her into the abyss.
With her spiritual roots shattered, she becomes a blood slave in the mines. Beneath the lashes, she clutches that old fan until the blood of her enemy drips onto its bones, and the cold light of the Nine Netherworlds shines for her for the first time.
They call me a good-for-nothing, but they don't know this fan needs hatred to hone its edge. She turns it into a blade and fights her way from the mines to the immortal sects.
At the outer-sect tournament, a flash of her mysterious fan freezes the pride of the gifted solid;
In a deadly secret realm, a sea of netherworld fire burns away the first of the Baili family's hundred-mile blood debts!
When she steps over her enemies' corpses to reach the pinnacle of the young elite, she discovers that her family's destruction conceals the secret of an Imperial Princess's bloodline from the Upper Realm...
“Ah Mo, who are you, really?”
The silent servant who always brings her medicine in the abyss takes a poisoned arrow for her, blinds himself, and betrays his sect to flee with her for a thousand miles.
When she faces the overlord of the Baili Clan alone, he tears away his disguise and steps into the light: silver hair cascading, sword pointed at the sky.
“Protecting you is my only purpose in crossing the Three Realms.”
“With this fan, I will make the entire Baili Nine Domains pay for their blood debts!”
From a good-for-nothing in the mortal world to an Imperial Princess of the Upper Realm, she grips the awakened Nine Netherworld Mystic Soul Fan.
Behind her stands the loyal god of war, who burns his divine bones to keep her warm. Before her looms the throne of her enemies, waiting to be toppled.
