Back from the Underworld, She Slaughters Without Mercy

[Everyone Gets Their Comeuppance] [Decisive and Ruthless] [True and Fake Heiresses] [Mutual Salvation] Song Xiyan died when her husband cut out her heart. She died in a remote courtyard and was hastily buried.

From the moment he married her, her husband had done it all for the sake of the woman he loved, Song Xiyan! She was merely an ingredient in the medicine that would save the woman he loved!

Only after her death did Song Xiyan realize that her entire life had been one tragedy after another. Everyone had been using her! No one had ever loved her or cared about her!

But Yama of the underworld told Song Xiyan that this was not how her life was supposed to go! Someone had stolen her fate! She should never have ended up like this!

Everyone who had driven her to her death deserved to suffer the consequences!

So she stopped calling herself Song Xiyan and took the name Ling Xiao. She returned from the underworld as a soulless living corpse!

This time, she would no longer care about anyone for the sake of blood ties or affection. She had come for revenge! She had come to kill!

And also... to protect him. For the only warmth she had known in life, she was willing to be anyone's blade and his shield.

He had to climb, one step at a time, to the throne!

He had few other hopes. He only wanted to stay with her, always...
