Sword Sovereign’s Daughter Avenged

Canglan Sect’s young lady Shen Qingci conceals her status and weds mortal Gu Hanzhou. After six years of devotion, she is betrayed right before childbirth. He schemes to harvest her Heavenly Spirit Root for Lu Qingyao of Xuantian Sect. Dying, she shatters her guardian jade. Her father, the Sword Sovereign, brings three thousand sword cultivators to raze Green Mountain Village and save her. Shen Qingci breaks their marriage pact. She baits Gu Hanzhou into corrupt cultivation that destroys him from within. She persuades the Immortal Alliance to ban spirit-root swapping as the gravest forbidden sorcery, and publishes the *Records of Restoration* freely, granting hope to all those wounded in their spirit roots.
