Woman in Love

In the chaos of the Nine Provinces, Yan Qingluan leaves the Xuantian Sect and establishes the Red Dust Way, weaving a web from threads of affection. She does not sever worldly ties. Instead, she makes the mortal world her cultivation ground and leads seven female cultivators in founding the Allure Pavilion, buying female cultivators who have been sold as cultivation cauldrons from the Spring Terrace City's black market. The birthmark on her left cheek is her seal; the peony veil is her banner. When the immortal sects wield detachment as a sword, she makes affection her blade. In a cultivation world ruled by men, she weaves a vast net belonging to women, a web spun in the face of death.
