Lu Zhou, a scion of a fallen family, is nothing more than an obscure restorer of ancient books at the Yunhai City Library. When blood accidentally soaks the ancient seal on a fragment of his family records, a buried past explodes to life in his mind. The tracking arts of his ancestor, a Ming dynasty imperial guard; life-and-death struggles in political schemes; the layers of mystery surrounding his father's death... He is forced into a world-shattering secret, where the modern city is the game board and his family's history is the playing piece. Drawing on his ancestor's strength and taking control of the game, this time he will no longer be a pawn at others' mercy. He will make the whole world hear history's echo!
