[A formidable power couple × unparalleled medical and poison skills × doted on by everyone] Her meridians were shattered at five; at fifteen, she pointed her sword at imperial power. She returns through blood, with the world itself as her chessboard!
As a child, Su Qingyuan, the legitimate daughter of the Minister of Revenue's household, was targeted in a deadly assassination attempt. Her parents sent her to Tianyin Pavilion, a hidden immortal sect. For ten years, she tempered her bones with blood atop snow-capped peaks:
Her sword shatters the heavens: a three-foot blade cuts down every demon and fiend, while hidden weapons fly from her sleeve like falling stars.
Her schemes overturn kingdoms: one unfinished chess game crushes a prince's decade of planning, while half a verse makes the entire court of scholars bow their heads.
Her medical and poison skills are unmatched: golden needles can revive the dead, and with a turn of her hand, she can bring a nation to its knees!
At fifteen, she returns to the capital, wearing the mask of a sickly girl who coughs blood, and turns the rotten court upside down
- At a palace banquet, she flicks her sleeve and sends three silver needles through a crossbow bolt aimed at the Emperor, saving his life and shattering the rumors that she is frail.
- In the black market, the name “Young Master Yuheng” cuts off her enemies' vital canal trade routes overnight.
- In the Golden Hall, she tears up the evidence behind a decade-long poisoning plot and points her sword at the throne: “It's time to settle accounts!”
Xiao Jingheng, the Fifth Prince, is a man like a lone wolf in the deep palace, and the only one who sees through her disguise.
He carves his way through mountains of corpses and seas of blood to stand behind her. “If you would slay a god, I'll light the beacons for you. If you would rule as emperor, I'll guard the realm for you.”
Who has crawled back from the depths of hell? Not merely a sheltered young lady, but a phoenix from the highest heavens, ready to change who rules this kingdom!
