Dream of the Red Chamber + Water Margin + female-led story
Lin Daiyu died, never imagining she would get the chance to be reborn.
“Cold moon, bury the flower's soul” belonged to her past life. “Cut the wind, shatter the warlord's soul” belonged to this one.
She heard someone laughing outside the window, laughing at her for being foolish, laughing at her for being stupid, laughing because even after she died, no one cared.
She was reborn with a heart full of hatred. Amid the wind and sand of the borderlands, she shed her sickly body and forged a heart of iron.
The day she returned to the capital, she didn't cry.
She drew her Wind-Cutting saber.
“To everyone in the Jia household: I hope you've been well.”
