She killed the person she loved most, wore their skin, and became the most ruthless “god.”
“She” is A Bao, the heroine: an illegitimate daughter from the lowest rung of society, born defiant and as tenacious as wild grass. At first, she can endure anything to survive; later, she can descend into madness for power.
A Bao's unattainable love is the Second Young Miss: the kindest and gentlest concubine-born daughter in the household, the embodiment of all that is good and beautiful. She is the heroine's only light in the darkness, and the “conscience” the heroine must ultimately crush.
