[Historical romance + light fantasy + martial arts + strong male lead, even stronger female lead + play the pig to eat the tiger + powerful characters + childhood friends]
Two people who were never meant to cross paths are entangled by a massacre that wiped out an entire household thirteen years ago. From this day on, who knows how the tides of the martial world will change?
“May I ask who you are, and why you drew your sword against this young lady without cause?”
Lu Jin stopped at the sound of the young woman's sweet voice and asked, “You tried to assassinate a court official. How can you claim you did nothing wrong?”
“But I can't use martial arts. How could I possibly assassinate a court official?”
This was their first meeting as adults.
She was once the beloved youngest daughter of the Lin family, but vanished overnight. When she reappeared, she was the dreaded City Lord of Lingping, a figure from another world whom people could neither classify as righteous nor evil.
Lu Jin was once a refined young gentleman, praised by all, gentle as jade and one of the finest talents among the younger generation of the righteous martial arts world. Now, he has no choice but to plunge into the turmoil of the martial world and seek a path that will prove his true character.
Is it him? Is it her? Or is it them?
A chance encounter becomes a journey of growth for a band of young heroes. (Ensemble cast; includes a secondary couple.)
