When Ning Yi wakes up, he finds himself in a completely unfamiliar parallel dynasty: the Great Xia Dynasty.
He has also become a lowly servant at a brothel in a small border city.
All he wanted was to enjoy life and take things as they came,
but he is forced step by step into a dark, criminal underworld of chaos, with no way back.
Like a tiger let loose from its cage, like a dragon released into the sea,
Ning Yi rises from the bottom of society, defying all expectations,
and writes a legendary story of his own.
Just as he finally escapes the game board, he unexpectedly discovers
that an even deeper maelstrom awaits him behind the Great Xia Dynasty...
