Zhou Yining was once a modern medical student, fretting over his graduation thesis. Then, without warning, the world spun around him and the scene before his eyes changed violently.
His original self had been the heir to the throne of the State of Bai, seemingly destined for a life without worries. But Bai's days were numbered, and from childhood onward, he was either fleeing for his life or on his way to do so. Not long ago, he and his mother finally escaped to the State of Jin and managed to sneak into a prince's residence, a place no one could search without permission. Little did they know that everyone in the residence, from top to bottom, was a demon. Their refined looks were no advantage at all. Instead, they became the cause of their doom. First, his mother was violated and killed. Now it was Zhou Yining's turn. For revenge, and to stay alive, Zhou Yining became quiet and obedient. Yet the haughty dignity of a crown prince, buried deep in his bones, and his hatred for his enemies made him neither servile nor arrogant. He resolved to take revenge on everyone in Jin who had ever humiliated him.
