“I remember what that woman told me in Nanji two years ago, as she lay dying: ‘Don’t go to the Imperial Capital. It’s a place that devours people without even spitting out their bones.’”
“I also remember what an old veteran told me in Shuofang a year ago: ‘Swords alone cannot save the world.’”
The young man stood beneath the Imperial Capital’s towering, majestic Yunxiang City Wall and gazed up at the heavens.
“But you came anyway.”
“I had to. For every Sword in the Clouds, this is the ultimate battlefield.”
Wanderers, assassins, the Embroidered Uniform Guard, the martial world.
During the Qingli era, eunuch factions seized power and threw the government into chaos. The martial wanderers’ organization “Desolation” drew its sword in a time of crisis, seeking to save all the people with its own strength.
The elite members of Desolation were known as “Swords in the Clouds.”
So beautiful!!!
