Three years ago, Yun Jingchen, the "Wind Chasing Swordsman" who struck a chord with a sword outside Yanmen Pass, suddenly disappeared at the height of his fame. No one knew that he was burdened with a blood feud for his master's sect being wiped out, and he hid in the market just to find out the truth. The "Mo Shadow Sword" that accompanies him contains not only peerless swordsmanship but also a secret of martial arts that was deliberately buried in the scabbard.
In the hazy place in the south of the Yangtze River, Su Qinghan, the daughter of a declining martial arts family, takes an ancestral token to save her grandfather from a strange illness. The dagger in her hand hides the code for the rise and fall of her family, and the scar on her shoulder is marked with an unknown past. When she was surrounded by robbers in Luomapo and was on the verge of death, Yun Jingchen's appearance was like thunder and rain, suddenly intertwining two lines of fate that had never intersected.
One is a hidden swordsman who pursues the truth, and the other is a stubborn girl who wants to save her relatives. The two walk together, but they don't know that they have stepped into a chess game set by a giant in the world. From the wilderness of the north to the water town of the south of the Yangtze River, they not only have to deal with the pursuit of the black and white, decipher the mystery of the long-lost martial arts secrets, but also face the grudges that spanned twenty years - the culprit of the destruction of the Yun Jingchen sect is inextricably linked to the strange disease of Su Qinghan's grandfather.
Mo Ying's sword came out, and the thirteen movements of chasing the wind stirred up the wind and clouds; the cold plum blossoms bloomed, and the hidden edge of the dagger pierced the fog. When the dust-laden truth unfolds like the setting sun weeping blood, can they keep their original aspirations amidst the light of swords and shadows? When the righteousness of the family and the country meet with personal grievances, should you choose to use the sword to prove the truth, or to use love to turn revenge?
The road to the rivers and lakes is long, the shadow of the sword follows, and the cold plum blossoms are proud. Let's see how this pair of chivalrous couples in troubled times find their own chivalrous path in the bloody storm.
