Pretty Guardian of the City 美人逆鳞 (沧月绘) by 莲沐初光 Lian Mu Chu Guang (BE/OE)

In the turbulent times when the countries are at war, there is a legend – whoever get the “phoenix chi” will rule the world!

Eight years ago, in order to find out the whereabouts of the “phoenix chi”, he once put a crane with red top on her palm: “What I want is your life.”

Eight years later, in order to revive the family’s dazzling social status, she embarked on the road of marriage alliance and entered his harem.

With him pressing every step of the way and endless deadly entanglements, she had no choice but to become a pawn in his hand to gain his favor. However, even in the moment of tenderness, she still remembers what he once said: “In a power struggle, there is only winner but no loser. Because the loser, all will die later.”

In order to free herself from his control, she secretly escaped from the palace and moved among battlefields, to go all out in a bloody battle with him! The battlefield, the setting sun, the sound of horns, whistling arrows, going through dangers, fleeing…

When she learned that her home and country had been reduced to nothing, when high-grade well-tempered steel become soft enough to wrap around the fingers, this is when she is determined to help him fulfill his goal of future world dominance, hence she returned to his side. Just for that sentence: “I (imperial use) don’t ask for congratulations from all over the world, but only seek forever reverence from all the people. You accompany me to usher in that golden age together, okay?”

Can she, who is covered all over with cuts and bruises, wait until that day?
