Zhang Guangzu, the paternal aunt of Zhang Qiling and an ancient guardian who had slumbered deep within the Zhang Family’s Ancient Tower, awakens unexpectedly. Confronted with a world transformed beyond recognition and the Zhang Family in decline, she encounters the young Li Cu outside the tower. His father abuses him, and the Wang Family and Wu Xie have already marked him in secret as part of his fate. Relying on her formidable strength and decisive nature, she uses extraordinary means to take custody of Li Cu from his father and shelters this “fledgling of fate” beneath her wings. She trains Li Cu to become a powerful warrior and a keen strategist while secretly laying plans and building her strength to wage a war of revenge against the Wang Family, her age-old enemy. She intends not only to destroy this shadowy organization that has haunted the world for a thousand years, but also to make them pay for the blood debt owed to her nephew, Zhang Qiling, and protect the person he treasures, Xie Yuchen. This is a journey of revenge and protection spanning the river of time.
