Shen Yanqing, a scholar in a blue robe, carries his family's sword manual and a clear, pure sword heart. He steps into the martial world from a rain-soaked alley in Jiangnan. He had only meant to seek a master and ask about the Dao, but accidentally becomes entangled in a century-old feud between martial clans. He encounters heroes of noble spirit and learns the truth of human nature, guarding his unsullied heart amid flashing blades and clashing swords. From rainy Jiangnan to the sands of the northern frontier, he wields his sword with a scholar's heart and lives by chivalry. In the treacherous game of the martial world, he gradually uncovers the secret of the sword-heart legacy, and through blood and fire, becomes the gentlest gleam of swordlight in all the jianghu.
