A Blade Reveals the Yellow Springs

“The Wind-Chasing Sword, the Soul-Severing Spear. Where copper coins fall, the blade sends you to the Yellow Springs.” If anyone in the martial world ever turned to evil, they had better know to steer clear of four people: a wanderer whose sword never returned to its sheath, a drunkard with a gourd hanging from his spear, a rich young master with a string of copper coins at his waist, and a woman carrying a broad-backed blade. In the chaotic late Tang, Zhao Jinghuan, daughter of the governor of Jizhou, enters the martial world with the “Yellow Springs Blade.” Amid the dangers of the jianghu and the turmoil of the regional warlords, she weaves a sweeping tale of intrigue and deep bonds between kindred spirits.
