The Iron Fan's Tender Blade

New work released! Welcome to read my work on Tomato Novel, hope you enjoy it. This story is set in late spring on Qingyun Mountain, where beauty hides sharpness. The Qingyun Manor has for generations established its family with fans, adhering to the ancestral motto "Fans hide tenderness, swords guard justice," living in seclusion in the deep mountains, aloof from the world. The manor lord, Xu Xiaotian, is renowned in the martial world for his Qingyun Fan. His children, Qingfeng and Qingyue, are accompanied by warmth, and the entire manor enjoys peaceful days. However, the martial world is treacherous. The ambitious lord of Liuye Manor, Wen Zihan, expands everywhere, coveting the legendary treasure of the previous dynasty. Although Qingyun Manor is hidden in the mountains, it cannot remain aloof. Ten-year-old Xu Qingfeng diligently practices with the fan, determined to protect his family and the manor; the delicate Xu Qingyue, full of passion, longs to stand shoulder to shoulder with her brother. Beneath the warm and harmonious surface, undercurrents have long been stirring—the willow-leaf bronze token on the wet nurse's sleeve, the butler's secret abnormalities, the suspicious movements of the merchant lodging at the manor, all foretell an impending catastrophe. When the fan shadow rises again, tenderness collides with conspiracy, protection intertwines with betrayal, can the century-old foundation of Qingyun Manor be preserved in the storm?
