After Su Jin died, she was greeted by one piece of good news and one piece of bad news.
The good news was that she was a celestial maiden who had descended to the mortal realm. Once her tribulation was over, she could report back to the Heavenly Court.
The bad news was that something had gone wrong somewhere in the process, and she couldn't return just yet.
The kind-hearted Lady Yama found her an identity in the mortal realm so she could live there for a while. She told her to find another chance to die later and see if she could make it back.
Su Jin agreed.
On Lantern Festival night, the original Su Jin had thrown herself in front of the First Prince and taken a knife for him, dying on the spot.
Just as the imperial physicians all knew there was no hope of saving her, the new Su Jin, "Niugu Lu," made her grand return and slowly opened her eyes.
The emperor and empress rejoiced. "Our son has been blessed with a match made in heaven!"
And so, an imperial edict betrothing her to Pei Ziyi, the First Prince and the most notorious ill-fated loner in all of Great Qi, came crashing down upon her.
After that...
The second time her soul returned to the underworld.
Yan Zhi'an: Why are you back again?
Su Jin: I don't know.
They returned to the mortal realm together to investigate the cause of her death. Yan Zhi'an told her to take care of herself.
The third time they met.
Yan Zhi'an: How did you die this time?
Su Jin: Beats me.
They returned to the mortal realm together to investigate the cause of her death. Yan Zhi'an told her to fend for herself.
The fourth time they met.
Yan Zhi'an: You...
Su Jin: Hold on, don't say anything yet. I came with the culprit.
The culprit had indeed come along, but he was mute and had no idea who his employer was. Su Jin still had no clue how she'd died.
Su Jin clutched her head. "Send me back."
Yan Zhi'an smiled faintly. "Wait a moment. I've got something good for you..."
From then on, Su Jin became the hardest woman in Great Qi to kill. She died in all sorts of ways in the mortal realm, took a lap around the underworld, then came back to life completely intact.
And her fiance in name only, Pei Ziyi, looked at her with ever-deepening eyes each time he saw her die and come back to life on the spot.
First he was shocked, then intrigued, and now...
One time, after bandits kidnapped Su Jin and Pei Ziyi found her, he took off his cloak and wrapped it tightly around her. His arms held her so fiercely, it was as if he wanted to press her into his very bones and blood.
"Jin'er," he said hoarsely. "Don't scare me like that again."
The assassins collectively broke down. "How is she alive again? And again?!"
She's impossible to kill... Just impossible...
Pei Ziyi: I am the ill-fated loner.
Su Jin: I've got connections down below.
Ongoing novel: Reborn as a General's Lady
The day the "Wild Goose Feather Hairpin" went missing, Gu Shi'an was publicly beaten in the Marquis's residence for the first time. From then on, she became the laughingstock of the household, while her husband's beloved concubine trampled her underfoot and tormented her at will.
When she returned to the day of the "Wild Goose Feather Hairpin" incident, Gu Shi'an refused to be bullied any longer. Calm and composed amid the shocked faces around her, she tore away her husband's beloved concubine's hypocritical mask.
This time, it's your turn!
Gu Shi'an had once been the most obedient legal wife in the marquis's household, always lowering her eyes and swallowing her grievances. In return, she received the news that her entire family had been wiped out and one hundred thousand soldiers had been trapped to die at Hangu Pass.
On the night heavy snow buried her body, the man she had devoted herself to was admiring plum blossoms with the beloved concubine he'd just made his legal wife.
She hated him.
She regretted everything.
Fortunately, Heaven took pity on her.
Reborn, she shed her mask of virtue and gentleness, struck her husband's beloved concubine, and turned the marquis's household upside down.
But that was far from enough.
She wanted him disgraced and ruined, to pay for his blood debts!
Gu Shi'an used a scheme to escape the marquis's household, assumed a new identity, and headed north alone.
She swore that this time, she would save her father, her elder brother, and the one hundred thousand soldiers trapped at Hangu Pass.
Trading women's finery for armor, she joined the camp of the Prince Who Stands Shoulder to Shoulder with the Emperor and fought her way through mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
After countless bloody battles, she slew enemy chiefs and seized strategic passes, earning the army's awe as "Stone Madwoman."
As she lifted the tent flap, her killing aura still clinging to her, she met a pair of eyes as deep as an unfathomable abyss.
The man leaned against the commander's desk, casually wiping blood from his sword. He gave her a half-smile.
"This is the first time I've met a woman who kills even more ruthlessly than I do."
Gu Shi'an tightened her grip on the short blade at her hip and stood her ground.
"Your Highness has a keen eye."
Outside the tent, the north wind swept snow across the ground. Inside, two pairs of eyes met over a floor mottled with blood.
One had climbed back from hell to avenge the past.
The other had spent half a lifetime killing, and had finally encountered someone cut from the same cloth.
Later, everyone in the capital knew that Gu Shi'an, the Prince's battle-hardened deputy general, had personally cut off the head of the Marquis of Yong'an.
As blood sprayed three feet high, she leaned down and whispered in his ear:
"The hundred thousand souls lost at Hangu Pass send their regards, Marquis."
Behind her, the powerful man who commanded a great army straightened her cloak and laughed softly in front of the entire court.
"You're done killing. Come home with me."
