Gu Ye spends every day on a rooftop in Anping City waiting for villains to show up, only to find that even the chicken thieves are foxes. His career as a chivalrous hero is completely out of work. His older brother, Gu Huai, has made such a good job of governing the city that Gu Ye can only sling a bamboo pole over his shoulder and leave home. But the “villains” he meets on the road are either putting on an act or caught up in misunderstandings. Then he encounters a white-clad night wanderer and discovers that this world hides a down-and-out martial world and a shocking conspiracy. Across five cities and thirteen provinces, he grumbles his way to invincibility, using his bamboo pole to turn the entire post-jianghu era upside down.
