Lin Yue, a modern soul, unexpectedly fell into the martial arts world of "The Footprint", but was trapped by the shackles of fate in the "reincarnation of villains" - every time he was reborn, he would become a villain that promoted the plot, from Grand Master Wala to the restoration minister Zhang Zongzhou, from the green forest hero Bi Daofan to the cold-faced swordsman Tantai Mieming. He was forced to repeatedly experience the fateful ending of defeat and suicide, tragic death in a vendetta, and burial of the protector. With the memories and scars accumulated through thousands of reincarnations, Lin Yue gradually sees through the death trap of the plot: simply avoiding death will only trigger a stronger "fate correction power". Only by reconstructing the logic of behavior from the root of the villain's identity - Yexian's machinations chess game hides the opportunity to stop the war, Zhang Zongzhou's restoration obsession implies the way of reconciliation, and Tantai Mieming's loyalty can be transformed into the power of protection. Using blood and bones as a chess piece, he wandered between the wars between the Ming Dynasty and Wala, paved the way for the fateful love between Zhang Danfeng and Yun Lei, and weaved the grievances of Jianghu sects, the undercurrent of royal intrigues, and the desire for personal survival into a web that defies heaven and changes fate. When the morning light of the eight hundredth rebirth illuminated the ruins of Tumu Fort, Lin Yue finally grasped the key to breaking the situation: not to become a hero who replaces the protagonist, but to be the "reverse traveler" who stands at the junction of light and darkness and uses the blood and tears of the villain to forge the road to peace. This time, he wants to engrave the survival epic of the "evil man" in the history books of "Ping Zong Xia Ying".
