In a parallel world where modern cities and ancient reclusive families coexist, the protagonist Lin Xian appears to be an idler in a bustling city with nothing to do. His daily life consists of walking, playing chess, and watching the excitement, which seems to be out of tune with this fast-paced world. However, his true identity is that he is the last descendant of the "Shou Jing Zhai", a hidden sect that once protected Eastern civilization and controlled the mysterious "Power of Silence". Because he was tired of the disputes within the sect and the hustle and bustle of the world, he chose to "hide in the city", sealing away most of his power, and just wanted to be quiet.
