White robes like snow, a merciless sword; a heart ablaze with compassion, leaving a mark on the world.
He is Bai Yutang, the Magnificent Mouse, whose literary brilliance dazzles the Hanlin Academy and whose sword shines across the Nine Provinces. Before the public, he is a cold-blooded scourge, striking fear into corrupt officials. In private, he is an anonymous bodhisattva, secretly helping the people suffering in the snow.
This time, Chen Prefecture is devastated by floods, but Prefect Wu Liang embezzles disaster relief funds and builds a golden Buddha to curry favor with his superiors. Bai Yutang enters the perilous fray alone, armed with only his sword. Through wind and snow, he intercepts the official escort and leaves a challenge, swearing to uphold justice in the most direct way possible: by taking the man's head.
When a cold, merciless sword faces overwhelming power, and a lone hero stands against thousands of troops, watch how Bai Yutang wields his sword as a brush and blood as ink, writing a hero's tale in this corrupt world: “Only when every injustice is slain can peace be achieved.”
