An original male protagonist, no romance. This is one possible continuation of the TV series Tales of the Dark River. The Dark River’s assassins have never lacked for successors, so why were there no new recruits when Su Changhe was the patriarch? Strange, isn’t it?
Hidden and winding, the river that flows through the shadows has not seen a new ripple in a long time. The calm court and martial world are about to welcome a new blaze, while the Dark River, ignorant of it all, has already sent slender tributaries into the martial world. When those branches return to the main stream, what new life will they bring to this rushing river?
A guest has arrived, a guest has arrived. All who come from afar are guests. Won’t you have a drink?
