Pretending to Be an Aristocratic Young Master in Ancient Times

A white robe, half a scroll of turmoil. Mo Bai transmigrates to an alternate ancient world, bearing a mysterious System, yet asks only to “save those who should be saved.” He rescues an orphan girl from iron hooves on a rainy night, offers insight amid upheaval at court, and wields an ancient sword amid the turmoil of the martial world. At his side, ten black-armored cavalrymen stand silent as mountains. The “Non-Attack” swords in their hands conceal the secret of ending war, while the works he has “borrowed” from other sources stir astonishing waves: from remedies to save the people to sacred military texts, from sweeping economic treatises to cautionary histories. A successor of Medicine King Valley, a spirited noblewoman from the capital, an orphan girl carrying a blood feud, renowned martial artists, frontier generals, reclusive eccentrics... Countless lives change course because of him. He builds the “Porcelain House” to shelter women with nowhere to go, starts a newspaper to enlighten the common people, and declines the position of Grand Master while quietly sowing the seeds of “investigating things to extend knowledge.” Yet when one wishes for stillness, the wind will not cease. The ancient secret map “Guigu” appears, entangled with the mysteries of fortune, hidden treasures of the former dynasty, and the ambitions of powerful figures in the present. The Yongjia Marquis’s residence lays its plans in secret, while forces in the martial world spring into action. When those close to him are swept into the whirlpool, Mo Bai has no choice but to leave his detached position for a time and enter the fray with his cavalry. This is no simple tale of conquest or treasure hunting, but a clash between ideals and ambition, and a contest between the dream of “Great Unity Under Heaven” and the weight of reality. See how Mo Bai, with wisdom and strength beyond his time, becomes both a lamp-bearer in the dark and a swordsman against the current on the stage of an alternate ancient world, hearing thunder in the silence and finding the truth in the ordinary. This is the story of a lonely savior who sets the gears of fate turning in an alternate ancient world and writes an unconventional legend.
