Body as Sword, Unbroken by Rumors

share time: 2026-02-03 06:16:40

Lin Zhao, the Sword-Bone Guard of Qingqiu City, sustains the city’s protective barrier with her bloodline. But a mysterious fire brands her a “disaster-bringing witch”—townsfolk throw stones at her sword sheath, and children cry at the sight of her. Instead of defending herself, she secretly stays outside the city to build shelters for refugees and slay bandits at night. Until a rainy night when enemy elites raid, she uses her back to shield a child hiding in an alley from a fatal blade. The old wound on her back—from saving the village chief three years ago—suddenly glows. As golden light bursts from the barrier the moment her blood spills, the townspeople finally realize: every scar on the “witch” they cursed is a “medal” for protecting the city.
