A broken Hanmei jade pendant involved a mystery that spanned thirty years.
The knight Shen Yanzhi investigates the death of his master Shen Shen, and unexpectedly discovers the secret of Xie Lin, the young master of Burning Heaven Palace - their fathers were both members of the Shadow Pavilion, and they are closely related to the massacre of the city in Yunzhou and the conspiracy of the royal family. One insists on chivalry and vows to uncover the truth about the wasted death of his master and the people in the city; the other, burdened with the reputation of "Jade Faced Yama", secretly investigates the mysterious case of his father's "death of illness".
From mutual suspicion to life and death trust, they followed the remains of the Shadow Pavilion, broke into Yanmen Pass, explored the Black Wind Village, and entered the miasma forest in southern Xinjiang. Amidst the weird human skin murals and bone-burning caves, they gradually uncovered the shady story of the collusion between the Shadow Pavilion and the royal family. In the flash of swords and shadows, there is the collision of good and evil positions; in the bloody mist, there is a trust that transcends positions.
When the Hanmei Jade Pendant was put together, and when the original intention of "Shadow follows the light" awakened, they finally understood: the so-called good and evil are never about identity labels, but about the choice of the human heart. This journey of revenge finally became the mutual redemption of two lonely souls. When the dust settles, the snow in Northern Xinjiang and the plum blossoms in Yunzhou shine together, illuminating the smooth road they have split with their two fronts.
