Frost on the Cold Blade

In the fictional martial world of the Great Jing era, the martial arts community is divided among four powers: the Northern Blade Alliance, the Jiangnan Sword Sect, the Western Regions Poison Sect, and the Central Plains Mystic Sect. A hundred years ago, they became enemies over the Cold Iron Order, a secret token that records the whereabouts of the ancient divine weapon Frostblade. Xiao Hanfeng, leader of the Blade Alliance, was framed for colluding with the Poison Sect. The Jiangnan Sword Sect and the Mystic Sect joined forces to wipe out his entire clan. Only his young daughter, Xiao Hanyue, survived, rescued by a loyal servant and hidden away in the Western Regions. Twenty years later, Xiao Hanyue assumes the name Su Ningshuang. Armed with her family's saber techniques and secret arts taught by the Poison Sect, she ventures into the Central Plains under the alias "Cold Blade," unleashing a storm across the martial world over revenge, truth, and redemption.
