The Scorpion and the Night Blossom
Nine years ago, the war between the Kingdom of Night and the Kingdom of Rivers tore Àn’yīng’s family apart, leaving her mother barely alive and a baby sister to fend for. Now the mortal realm is falling into eternal night, and mó—beautiful, ravenous demons—roam the land, feasting on the flesh of humans and drinking their souls. Àn’yīng is no longer a helpless child. Armed with her crescent blades and trained in the ancient art of practitioning, she enters the Immortality Trials, a deadly competition where the prize is a pill of eternal life—the only hope to heal her dying mother. As she battles through the Trials, Àn’yīng finds an unexpected ally in Yù’chén, a powerful and enigmatic rival contestant. But as their bond deepens, Àn’yīng must decide if she can trust him or if he is the most dangerous player of all.
