Blood Sacrifice of the Tang: Exchange for His Return

In 2030, special forces soldier Lin Xiaoxiao and her comrades are betrayed by the political commissar, resulting in the annihilation of the entire team. Her lover Su Zhe sacrifices his broken body using the 'Turning Back Stone' to send her to the early Tang Dynasty, just to let her escape from hell. After traveling to the Tang Dynasty, the Turning Back Stone on Lin Xiaoxiao's neck transforms into a blood-colored mark that requires absorbing the blood energy of the strong to repair, and the end of the repair is the only hope to resurrect Su Zhe. She takes in an orphan child, Su Yi, as her disciple, trains villagers with modern special forces tactics, and unexpectedly encounters a young Wu Meiniang—the 'Emperor's Fortune Vessel' sensed by the Turning Back Stone. To obtain repair energy, Lin Xiaoxiao leads the Su family army into the whirlpool of power struggles: helping Duan Zhixuan escape death to gain military trust, paving the way for Meiniang in the Chang'an palace struggles, and using ancient martial arts cultivation and modern wisdom to maneuver among powerhouses like Li Shimin and Zhangsun Wuji. She uses the precision and ruthlessness of a special forces soldier to break through situations, and the supernatural power of the Turning Back Stone to reverse crises, but in the process of protecting Meiniang and confronting Zhangsun Wuji, she gradually comes to regard the Tang Dynasty as her home. When Li Shimin is critically ill, princes vie for the throne, and the Turks invade, Lin Xiaoxiao faces the ultimate choice: sacrifice the Emperor's Fortune to exchange for Su Zhe's return, or protect everything she has come to care about in this chaotic world? Amid the tempering of blood and fire, the collision of a modern soldier and the Tang Dynasty's turmoil is rewriting the trajectory of history and fate.
