A promise made a thousand years ago, nine lives of tribulation. The crimson scales awaken, and their love begins anew.
He is Yue Jin, a dragon-vein general from the waning days of the Great Song. After his soul was sealed for a thousand years, he awoke in the modern era as Lin Jin, a talented national-team basketball player.
She is Shi Jian, a sports journalist who keeps dreaming of an ancient battlefield. In every dream, there is a blood-soaked general.
When war drums sound in a basketball arena a thousand years later, and familiar eyes meet beyond the three-point line, Yue Jin knows that the person he crossed time to find has finally appeared.
But a cruel curse lurks behind their happiness: she has taken an arrow for him in nine lives, and this one will end with her soul scattered forever.
He burns his dragon soul to reverse time, all so he can return to before the tragedy began.
"Jianjian, if I could live it over, I'd marry you in a time of peace."
"My love, if I could live it over, I'd still die for you, but this time, we'll change our fate together."
From the thrilling heat of modern basketball courts to the iron horses and icy rivers of the waning Song; from tender devotion by the river to a final farewell as Jincheng falls, this is a desperate wager spanning a thousand years: love is the stake, and fate is the opponent.
