The Warrior Princess

Gu Tianlan, empress of Wangyue and grand general who guarded the nation, went to battle while ten months pregnant to keep her country safe. Little did she know it was all a plot by the Emperor of Wangyue.

Her child was killed, and Gu Tianlan died a horrific death in a ruined temple. When she awoke, she had become Gu Shuiyue, an unloved legitimate daughter in Shuoyun. Bullied by her birth father, her stepmother, and her younger half-sister, the foolish Gu Shuiyue had lived a life worse than death in the Gu household.

Gu Tianlan transmigrated into her body, killed her half-sister, and punished her stepmother. So what if they were from the Prime Minister's residence? Anyone who dared bully her would be destroyed!

When she returned to Wangyue, she would repay, bit by bit, everyone who had harmed her in her previous life: flay them, pull out their tendons, and throw them into the boiling oil!

The legitimate daughter returns to set out once more on the splendid path to becoming empress. This time, though, she'll choose a different emperor. The one who's eight feet tall and has an eight-pack, you're the one for me.
