In 617 AD, the Sui dynasty has lost its grip, and all under heaven scramble to claim the throne. Six young people from the modern era are swept into this blood-red dawn by a thunderstorm on Mount Tai. When they wake, they are refugees on the banks of the Yellow River.
Mo Jiyu, a history major and elite soldier; Jiang Nan, a surgeon; Lu Shuangteng, a mechanical genius; Liu Xiao, an intelligence specialist; Zhao Yipu, a martial artist; and Li Junlin, a code expert. Calling themselves the “He Luo Survivors,” they draw on knowledge, technology, and teamwork from more than a thousand years in the future to forge themselves into a formidable “Six Blades” amid the chaos.
They help Li Shimin train his troops and reform the military, save countless lives with battlefield first aid, revolutionize siege weapons through engineering, and win repeated victories through information warfare. But just as they begin to believe they can rewrite history together and build an ideal dynasty, the first crack appears within their team.
As the history they know is altered piece by piece, the greatest threat does not come from the enemy ahead, but from the shadows behind them. Trust proves more fragile than imperial power, and betrayal often begins with the noblest intentions.
This is the story of six transmigrators trying to save an era, and the ultimate test they must face: who is the hunter, and who is the pawn?
