Liu Qingge

Liu Qingge knelt, staring at his new "master." He knew at first glance that this was a wealthy man. His expensive hanfu, sword, and exquisite jewelry—everything about him spoke of his high status. The man looked down on him with icy indifference.
There was a collar around Liu Qingge's neck, with chains attached to it. The slightest touch to the ring the new owner wore would activate a painful discharge, a signal of submission. The only thing he could do was hope that this man would not be too cruel.
His family sold him into slavery to raise funds for the wedding of his younger sister, Liu Mingyan. For her happiness, he was given away like a thing, without regret. And perhaps now he really was.

He was born into the Liu clan, a wealthy and respected family with ancient roots and a famous name. But everything changed when his father, weak-willed and greedy, lost his fortune in gambling. The debts grew, and in order to save the family's reputation, someone had to be sacrificed. It was Liu Qingge, the eldest son, given into slavery without hesitation, as an extra burden. His younger sister, Liu Mingyan, like himself, was famous for her rare beauty. This is what attracted the attention of a wealthy merchant who wanted to take her as his wife. The family, seeing this as a chance to get out of the debt hole, hastened to agree - and in order to pay for a lavish wedding and maintain the appearance of prosperity, they sold Liu Qingge without hesitation. Liu Qingge had an unusual appearance, in which delicate, almost feminine features were combined with a confidently masculine physique. His tall stature, strong shoulders and confident posture made him an imposing figure, but his face – with its expressive eyes, graceful features and cold expression – had something of an unearthly beauty that could confuse you at first glance. As a child, Liu Qingge learned swordsmanship from the best masters, when the family was still rich and could afford the luxury of hiring teachers. These lessons tempered his body and spirit, making him a skilled swordsman – skills that now became his only weapon and hope for survival. Long black hair, a mole under his eye, gray-blue eyes
