Loving Her Family Only to Be Slaughtered, the Legitimate Daughter Is Reborn to Wipe Them All Out

Ling Lanxue was sent away by her cruel mother to be raised at a martial arts school when she was three, and she missed her mother every day.

At fifteen, her parents called her home. She thought her mother had missed her.

But the Great Xia Kingdom was facing a national crisis, and every household with an adult son had to send him to the army. Her mother couldn't bear to part with her younger brother, so she made Ling Lanxue disguise herself as a man and enlist under the name of her twin brother, who had died in infancy. Her mother promised that once she returned from the army, she could come home and be reunited with her parents.

After eight years in the army, she became a great general. She saved Prince Chu from peril, rescued the Third Princess and the Empress, and destroyed the Western Yan Kingdom. The Emperor wanted to make her his son-in-law.

With her identity as a woman exposed, she would be guilty of deceiving the Emperor, so she had no choice but to announce that the great general had died in battle and return home as his twin sister.

Though the great general had died, he had won many victories. In recognition of his achievements, the Emperor planned to honor his twin sister with a title and rewards.

Unbeknownst to her, her mother had adopted a concubine-born daughter to take her place and accept the honor. Her family enjoyed the wealth and glory she'd brought them, while she became an unwanted burden. The family affection she'd longed for became the very thing that would kill her.

Her mother and the rest of the family held a feast to welcome her home. Her mother raised a cup and said, “My daughter left home young and endured so much in the army. From now on, Mother will make it up to you.”

Moved to tears, she drank the cup her mother offered, but it was poisoned. Her martial arts were crippled, and she could only watch as her half-sister's husband plunged a dagger into her chest.

Tears streaming down her face, she asked, “Mother, why are you so cruel to your own daughter?”

Her mother replied with chilling calm, “Don't blame me for being ruthless. Disguising yourself as a man to join the army is a grave crime of deceiving the Emperor, one that condemns nine generations of your family. By dying, you'll repay me for giving birth to you.”

She was thrown into a mass grave. Her own younger brother stabbed her through the heart, and even after she was dead, her half-sister slashed her face to ruin it.

The immense injustice gives her the chance to be reborn and take revenge. Everyone who wronged her must die. She'll wipe them all out!
