   Reader note

   In this book, the female protagonist, Mu Jiuxun, was only five years old when she single-handedly slaughtered the evil spirits of seven cities. She was both a god and a demon; the god and demon races had been allies for generations, but were wiped out by the evil spirits. This was her first incarnation, when she was only ten. She went to hell and killed her way through a tower for three days and three nights, gaining the title of God of Slaughter. She then became a demon, wielding the God-Slaying Sword. I remember the evil god saying that the female protagonist was neither a god nor a demon, nor a human. Actually, she was very kind and lovely, but also truly ruthless, refining the divine bones of her own divine body—very fitting. I felt so sorry for her, so young!
