In the night city built of neon and steel, mercenary V accidentally obtained a mysterious antique bronze sword during a commission - it was sharp and could easily cut through military alloys.
In a bloody encounter, V's bloody wound touched the cold sword body. In an instant, the sword roared like a dragon's roar, and an illusory figure with drunken eyes appeared in the blue electric light: "Ha! I am Li Taibai, the banished immortal!"
The ancient sword spirit Li Bai, who calls himself the Poet Immortal, accidentally awakens due to V's "vitalizing blood" and resides in this ancient sword that is out of place in the cyber city. V, a pragmatist who relies on advanced prosthetics and smart weapons, and the thousand-year-old swordsman who upholds the elegant swordsmanship of "killing one person in ten steps" are forced to become bound alien partners.
The sharpness of the ancient sword has attracted covetousness from all parties, and the appearance of Li Taibai has touched the unknown undercurrent underground in the City of Night. When the iron-blooded rules of cyber technology collide with the mysteries of Eastern swordsmanship, and when the calculation of digital codes encounters the freehand expression of poetry, wine and sword spirit, V not only needs to adapt to the addition of a "roommate" who is keen on reciting poetry but possesses terrifying strength, but also has to face the ancient fate brought by this magic weapon that far exceeds corporate wars.
Is this sharp blade from the dusty past helping V to climb to the top of Night City, or is it a curse that drags her into the abyss of calamity? In the symphony of the steel jungle and the immortal poetic soul, V's legendary path will be completely subverted. She must learn to harness this power beyond comprehension, or... Be torn to pieces by it. The future hangs between a sword.
