Sui Xue conceals her identity as the Shadow Clan’s saintess while going undercover in Yuncheng. One day, while studying spells at Lingfeng Cliff, she hears several rumors from Shen Shuxing, a Sword Sect disciple she recently met.

They say that before the fall of the Dongyu Kingdom, there was a much-loved young princess in Princess Zhaoying’s household.

The young princess was innocent and carefree. Though she inherited none of her parents’ cultivation talent, she was endlessly indulged and favored, and was the most noble and free-spirited girl in all of Dongyu.

They say the young princess was infatuated with Shen Shuxing, the only son of the nation’s great general. As a child, she followed him around every day and kept him company as he practiced swordsmanship. She declared that when she grew up, she would follow him to Yuncheng and learn to cultivate just like him. No one could stop her from loving him with all her heart.

They say the young princess bore a blood-curse fate, was frail and sickly, and was destined to die young, never living past the age of twenty.

The crescent moon was like a blade. The night mist was cold and damp, and red fireflies flickered up and down like sparks scattering from a blaze.

Sui Xue strode arrogantly down the bloodstained steps, admiring her flawless moves in the wounds of the corpses strewn across the ground.

Suddenly, she heard footsteps behind her.

She turned back unsteadily, clutching a red stain on her arm, soaked with someone else’s blood. She looked terrified and helpless, like a survivor of some calamity, on the verge of tears.

Shen Shuxing, who had lost count of how many times he’d stumbled upon her secrets, stared at Sui Xue:

Which of the rumors about the young Lady Sui are actually true?

“I hate Huaying with all my heart.”

“She tricked me into becoming a pawn in her patricide and usurpation plot, and trampled on my sincere feelings to seize the position of ruler of the realm. She used me as her blade. All those years fighting side by side were a lie.”

“She saw my Lin family as an obstacle, brought disaster upon us with her own hands, then destroyed the Sacred Temple and ruined everything the Lin family had worked for. Once she achieved her goal, she cast me aside on our wedding day, making me a laughingstock across the land. Worst of all, she really did kill me.”

“When I get my hands on her, I’ll sever her meridians and feed her poison. I’ll make her kneel before me in repentance every day, suffer eternal punishment by lightning, and beg for death without ever receiving it.”

Outside the study.

“What’s the young master muttering about? He’s rewriting that letter asking Huaying to come back for the umpteenth time, even though he’s supposed to send it today!”
