Pairing: A restrained, calculating hardass with a soft heart VS a gentle, brilliant, honest-to-a-fault woman
Synopsis:
Born to a prominent family, she holds a noble title.
A renowned master's disciple, she is a formidable martial artist.
Chu Xiqiu once took pride in these things, but in the end, they became her chains.
After many twists and turns, a long road lies ahead.
Family, sect, colleagues, foreign enemies.
Everything is both her armor of gold and silver, her purple robes and jade belt, and also her russet prison uniform, her iron shackles and copper cuffs.
"A Qiu, I'm here." That night, Yu Chang kissed her shoulder and neck, whispering softly in her ear.
"In this life or the next, I will never let you down."
Brilliant across five generations, unrivaled in martial arts across the four seas.
A master strategist, matched by her military achievements.
