Serpent's Lure

Yuè Huánxī, the young heir to Héngshān Yuè, carries the weight of his father's legacy and his sins. Bound to Bìlín, a sentient whip-sword fused with a serpent spirit, Huanxi walks a razor's edge between loyalty and rebellion. The blade whispers in his mind, its voice a seductive mix of guidance and manipulation, urging him to embrace the power that could save or destroy his clan. Huanxi must confront the serpent spirit's growing influence, and his own heart's desires. For in the end, the greatest weapon-or weakness-may not be Bìlín, but the ties that bind him to those he loves.
