The Delicate Rose: The Sacrificer

In the era of cultivation in the Great Wilderness, ancient contracts remain in the world, and countless bloodlines are bound by fate. The Exquisite Rose is a bloodline left behind by an ancient war among the gods. It bears the power of life, yet is also bound to a predetermined fate of sacrifice. The ancient Su clan is wiped out overnight. As its last surviving heir, Su Linglong flees through a world in turmoil, carrying her half-withered lifebound rose. She is a master of spirit-plant arts. With blossoms, she can heal all living things; with thorns, she can strike down her enemies. Her bloodline grants her unparalleled talent, but also brings an endless curse of inner demons. The sects covet her power, the ancient clans lust after her bloodline, and every faction in the world sees her as a pawn to be used. Xie Linyuan, a righteous sect's heir burdened with his sect's mission, tests her from the moment they meet. Kindred spirits draw close, and love quietly takes root. But divided by their loyalties, they fall in love only to face one heartbreaking choice after another. As layer upon layer of conspiracy is uncovered, they learn that the Su clan was not destroyed by an enemy invasion. Its ancestors sacrificed themselves to protect the world. Su Linglong is left with only two paths: submit to fate and sacrifice herself to bring peace to the world, or defy the odds, stake everything, and rewrite the ancient contract. No one is born invincible. Every kind of power comes at a price. When roses bloom across the heavens, will it be the final act of sacrifice, or the beginning of a new life that breaks free?
