As a Woman, I Slaughtered My Way Through the Martial World

(Gender transformation + gender-bending romance + tragic love + wuxia + urban setting. Please don’t flame if it’s not your thing.)

Lin Mo accidentally transmigrates into a wuxia world as a young beggar named A Nu.

Fate gives him the most vicious setup imaginable: a peerless beauty capable of bringing a nation to ruin, reduced to a political plaything carefully trained by the dark organization known as the Youhuang Pavilion.

To survive, she abandons her dignity and bows her head as a slave.

During her subsequent escape, she meets Song Yun, a young swordsman from the Tianshan Sword Sect.

He is the only sun in her bleak life. Song Yun carries him through rainy nights, combs her hair, and gives her whatever warmth he can, even if it has to be stolen.

Torn between pride and insecurity, she longs for that light even as she pushes herself into deeper darkness.

At the edge of a cliff in the Forest of Ten Thousand Poisons, with no way out, she pushes Song Yun away with her own hands and plunges back into the hell known as the Youhuang Pavilion, at the cost of shattering her meridians.

“Song Qingzhou, I’ve repaid the life I owed you.”

When she opens her eyes again, the caged bird is dead, and the asura phoenix has risen from the ashes.

If she can’t be a pure and innocent person, then she’ll become the most venomous poison in the martial world.

The day I master my divine art will be the day I bathe the martial world in blood.
