What Heartless Sovereign is about
Ye Fei, adopted daughter of Heavenly Azure Sect, was framed by true blood daughter Yang Jingjing and betrayed by her master and senior brothers, her cultivation destroyed.

HappyShort released it as 31 bite-size episodes mixing revenge, fantasy and romance, made to watch on a phone in one sitting or a few.
Is it worth watching?
The draw here is the slow build to a payback that lands hard. On top of that: a world with its own rules and a lead who learns to bend them.
The whole series takes about 37–68 minutes, so it's an easy binge.
