Hidden Sword Villa was burned down overnight, and the young owner Ling Yunxiao was charged with a blood feud. He unexpectedly inherited the ancient secret "Sword Manual of Setting Sun Shining on Snow" and the "Secret Key of Dragon Veins" related to the lifeblood of the Tang Dynasty. He embarked on the road of revenge with his childhood sweetheart Liu Hanyan, but was involved in a shocking conspiracy that spanned the rivers, lakes and courts - the leader of the Blood Shadow Sect, Li Cangqiong, colluded with the vassal king Zhu Wen to overthrow the Tang Dynasty; the descendants of the former Sui Dynasty secretly gathered forces and united with foreign enemies such as Turks and Tubo to wait for the opportunity; the Holy Fire Sect and the Black Sand Sect of the Western Regions were also eyeing, trying to disrupt the Central Plains.
From the life and death breakout in the Devil's City to the guardianship of the mythical beasts in the Dragon Vein Secret Realm of Zhongnan Mountain; from the undercurrents in the Jiangnan water town to the fierce battles in the snowy mountains on the southwest border, Ling Yunxiao has always used "chivalry" as his blade and "protection" as his heart. He united with Shaolin, Kunlun, Lingjiu Palace and other upright factions in the world, and joined hands with the loyal general Li Keyong to smash conspiracies one after another in the light of swords and shadows. In the test of life and death, he realized the true meaning of "The Setting Sun Shines on the Snow" - the sword is not a weapon, but a barrier to protect the peace of the people.
The book contains not only the love, hate and infatuation of children in the world, but also the generous elegies of family and country. Ling Yunxiao refused the generous salary of a high-ranking official and adhered to the original intention of "a great chivalrous person serving the country and the people". In the end, he not only avenged his father and put down the rebellion, but also illuminated the mountains and rivers of the Tang Dynasty with the spirit of "the setting sun shines on the snow", allowing the legend of chivalry to be passed down from generation to generation in the sunset of the lotus pond in the south of the Yangtze River and the morning mist of the Hidden Sword Villa.
