After Yan Linxi was murdered, he died, only to be reborn and take up his old profession as a legal advocate.
His efforts to right wrongs are always fraught with danger and one close call after another.
Only the county magistrate by his side ever whispers in his ear, “Don’t be afraid. You’re the one I hold dearest. No one would dare lay a hand on you.”
Yan Linxi has never been afraid. The magistrate cherishes him with all his heart and loves him beyond measure.
But later, it is his magistrate who holds him close and gives him endless affection.
And it is also his magistrate who severs all ties with one sword and wipes out everyone in his path.
