In the bloody night of Chang'an, after Zhongliang, Shen Jinghong's family was destroyed. The family heirloom "Mountain and River Map" was stolen by the Black Eagle Hall. He fled to the Western Regions with the Hanxing Sword and became a "lone goose" among the people in the world.
Under the Qilian Snow Peak, he met Su Ningshuang, a disciple of Jade Girl Peak. The two went from being suspicious of each other to fighting the enemy side by side, but in the poisonous mist of Populus euphratica forest, they witnessed the strangeness of people's hearts - Jade Girl Peak actually colluded with Black Eagle Hall, trying to use the secret treasure of the Mountain and River Map to collude with the Western Khanate to invade the Central Plains. Su Ningshuang protected her with her life, and used her last breath to put the secret conspiracy message into his hands, which also awakened him from his obsession of "revenge for his father": what he guarded was never a picture, but the mountains and rivers of the Central Plains.
The wind and sand of Mohe Yanqi sharpened the edge of his sword, and the enchantment formation of Lop Nur allowed him to find his long-lost cousin, Princess Ayina of Qiuci. The moment the jade pendant of the Qingluan tribe's emblem matched the jade hosta, Shen Jinghong finally understood his father's legacy of "guarding the map and protecting the people." He helped Ayina secure the throne and built a strong defense line for the Western Regions with the secrets of the previous dynasty. At this time, he was already the "Hong" connecting the Central Plains and the Western Regions.
When the Nether Sect spread rumors in the Central Plains and instigated martial arts to attack the Shen family by pretending to be "descendants of the Shen family", Shen Jinghong rode his horse back east. The Hanxing Sword broke through the fog of conspiracy on the top of Huashan Mountain, and the golden light of Haoran's swordsmanship drove away the evil spirits who colluded with foreign enemies. He used Su Ningshuang's suicide note and her aunt's final writings as evidence to awaken the conscience of justice.
