Sovereign of the Red Dust

Adowawaa
One remembers the past. The other knows the future. Feng Xiao was a monster of the Jianghu, a high-ranking assassin butchered because she allowed herself a single human flaw. Reincarnated as a five-year-old, she’s decided that being a weapon is for fools, she’s going to be the hand that wields them. By abandoning her sect for the empire’s wealthiest merchant clan, she begins a cold, calculated ascent. To Feng Xiao, people are either tools or obstacles. Then she meets Su Lan, a girl from the 21st century who doesn't know when to shut up. Su Lan doesn't understand "Face," refuses to kowtow, and treats the Imperial Court like a high school debate club. She has the power of foresight, but she uses it to seek justice for the weak, a concept Feng Xiao finds dangerously stupid. They are a collision of two worlds: The Assassin: Who believes the only way to stop a war is to kill the man starting it. The Transmigrator: Who believes in saving every soul, even if it ruins the plan. Between heated arguments over "human rights" and the brutal reality of ancient politics, they realize they are stuck with each other. One provides the steel; the other provides the vision. Together, they’re going to drag this kingdom into a new era, if they don't kill each other first.
