Slay the Gods: Mian Xiluo

The Night’s Watch training camp has always been a place of hidden talent and strict discipline, a crucible where countless recruits are forged into Night’s Watch warriors. Su Nianxi is the camp’s most extraordinary and most revered ace instructor.

At first glance, people are captivated by her gentle beauty. With pink eyes, lustrous hair, and a languid, easygoing air, she wears a soft, absentminded expression. Fragile and mild-mannered, she seems like a moon sheltered in a greenhouse, untouched by storm or rain. No one would ever associate her with slaughter. Few know that beneath that breathtaking beauty lies Great Xia’s sharpest blade and coldest heart.

On her eighth birthday, her entire family perished in a raging inferno. At death’s door, she pledged her life to forge a divine pact. Ye Fan personally rescued her, and from that day on, she rose to the ranks of the Night’s Watch elite. She is Great Xia’s youngest top fighter in a century, the “One Bow”; an undisputed powerhouse ranked among the top three of the Seven Jade Ruins; the mortal agent of Aphrodite, goddess of love and beauty; and the sole wielder of Forbidden Ruin 026, “Where Fate Begins and Ends.” Armed with a star-forged blade and divine power, she is decisive in battle and as unyielding as iron.

Forged by fire and sharpened by the gods, fate has left her covered in scars and burdened with endless loneliness.

But the arrival of Wang Mian gave this solitary star, long adrift amid darkness and bloodshed, a place to finally call home.

“Everyone sees how ruthless I am. Only you see the tenderness I hide in the ashes.”

She will cut down every deception and abomination in the world and protect the ordinary warmth of human life. From now on, on this long road of keeping watch through the night, she and he will walk side by side. She will no longer face the wilderness alone.
