Description
Shulien's life has been one of quiet retirement, but when she learns of her family's patron's death, she is forced back into action. Returning to the capital, she sets out to protect Green Legend, a sword with a storied past. However, Shulien soon finds herself facing hidden enemies and confronting a tragic past that refuses to stay buried. In this tumultuous landscape, a beautiful young warrior named Snow Vase arrives on the scene, seeking a master. As their paths cross, a complex web of loyalties and allegiances is revealed, threatening to upend everything Shulien thought she knew. Amidst the intrigue, a forbidden love blossoms between Snow Vase and the enigmatic bandit Wei-fang. As the stakes grow higher, these two young warriors must navigate the treacherous landscape of their own hearts in order to find happiness. Based on the original novels by Wang Du Lu, this is a beautifully told love story set against the fading backdrop of nineteenth century Imperial China.
