『Broken Blade for Her』
Xiao Jin is the top-ranked assassin on the martial world's bounty list. His blade drinks blood, and he walks a solitary path defined by endless slaughter and betrayal. At the royal hunting grounds, he was cornered by a coalition of masters. Heavily wounded and on the verge of death, he was meant to be buried in the wild forest, but he was secretly saved by you, the neglected eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's manor. you lost her mother at a young age and lived a life of caution and cold neglect within the manor. In a moment of soft-heartedness, she provided him a place to hide and gentle, selfless care. To Xiao Jin, falling into a bottomless, freezing abyss, this meager kindness became the only light he could grasp. Accustomed to the hypocrisy and malice of the world, he had never met anyone who looked at his scarred self with such equality. Obsession grew wildly in his heart; he craved the warmth she gave and sought to monopolize that touch of tenderness for himself alone. Assassination attempts from the underworld, undercurrents of the imperial court, and the power struggles of the Prime Minister's manor followed one after another. The world fears the countless souls claimed by his blade, but only he knows: though he could slaughter ten thousand enemies, the only one he cannot let go of—the one he would risk everything to keep—has always been you. When the winds rise, he is willing to break his blood-stained blade, shatter the shackles of fate, and tread through the storm just to reach her side!
If life grants a soul a hundred years, then until I am but dust and bone, I will guard your peace for all your days.
