The Jade Phoenix Saga

Corrupted. This is the word that has defined Yu since her infancy. Her God Sign is corrupted and so she is a cultivator without cultivation. Frail and sickly, Yu is the only descendant of her mighty warrior lineage to live without strength, without purpose. She is a stain on the honor of her family, an embarrassment to her prestigious clan. Hidden away, Yu comes to live with the constant scorn and ridicule of her peers. She is bullied, beaten and bloodied. But she is never broken. She dreams of one day proving herself worthy. Defying her father’s wishes, Yu trains with her twin Jian swords, using her flawless memory to perfect their complex forms. Working in secret she builds her martial skills to a level unheard of for her young age. But her skills mean little without cultivation. Until she is given a chance – a chance to be reborn.

Yu has finally started her journey towards becoming a true cultivator. As a member of the prestigious Black Dragon sect and the disciple of the infamous – and possibly mad – sect leader, she is in the perfect position to finally achieve her goals. Yet despite her newfound abilities and enviable status, the sect holds challenges and dangers far greater than anything Yu faced in her rural home. Her sect is a brutal place – where power rules all. And such power can create monsters. Thrust into the spotlight – Yu once more finds herself the object of disdain and prejudice. She is a competitor to be crushed, a verger girl daring to rise beyond her station, unworthy of the gifts she has been given. Her enemies are everywhere, and they will stop at nothing to see her fail. Despite the many daggers aimed at her throat, Yu must climb her way through the ranks of her new home, grow her cultivation, and reveal the true depths of her power.
