Political intrigue + cultivation + martial arts + rebirth + romance…
In the autumn of the seventeenth year of the Dacheng reign, the emperor’s seventh son was born. Seven was an ill-omened number, and his birth coincided with a meteor shower and a locust plague.
The court officials branded him a demon, while Regent Zhu Gong and others insisted he be executed.
To silence the opposition, Emperor Dacheng personally poisoned Consort Li, and the seventh prince was imprisoned in a disused pavilion in the Cold Palace.
On Blue Star, on a night of thunderstorms, antique dealer Zhu Ge vanished from Highway 77 while driving.
When he opened his eyes again, he had become the forgotten prince in the Cold Palace’s attic.
His meals were passed through an iron window, and his only visitor was an elderly eunuch who came in secret.
He asked, “Who am I, really?”
He vowed, “I must survive!”
He declared, “I will unite the martial world and return to the Divine Capital!”
