A reimagining of Water Margin in the classic style of Gu Long.
A radical reinvention of one of the Four Great Classical Novels, set in the world of martial arts.
“A swift wind passes, leaving its fragrance in the night; icy rain falls from the sky, stealing the soul.” In the reign of Emperor Huizong of the Song, Song Jiang, leader of the 108 heroes of Water Margin, was a dazzling talent and a man of effortless elegance. His Swift Wind Palm and Skyfall Ice Needles were unmatched in the martial world. The treacherous Gao Qiu was not only the third-ranked master of flying daggers in the world, but also commanded the Four Envoys and Three Swords, along with countless experts from the Central Plains. His followers were everywhere at court, and he was only waiting to seize the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden Scripture, which concealed a vast treasure, strategic maps of the Central Plains, and peerless martial arts manuals. Then he would murder the emperor and seize the throne. The Celestial Venerable Fang La and the Liao Empire were also watching hungrily from the sidelines.

Huizong repeatedly ventured out in disguise, hoping a hero could turn the tide. With the Great Song on the verge of changing hands, Song Jiang and the heroes of Liangshan Marsh, including Wu Song and Lin Chong, stepped forward in the hour of danger. After surviving countless brushes with death and romantic entanglements, they finally eliminated the traitors atop the Forbidden City. They not only saved the empire from disaster, but also won the steadfast love of Li Shishi, the most beautiful woman in the land...
