The Escort, Ninth Master

In the chaotic final years of the Sui dynasty, the yellow sands devour all. One sword, one child, and one escort mission where death is nearly certain. An escort is no hero, but a road-worn guard who lives by the blade: the price is never up for discussion, life is never given on credit, and once a promise is made, not even ghosts or gods can stop it. Along the way, they slay bandits, cut down soldiers, expose conspiracies, and face their former master. Blades drink blood as father and son depend on each other. This is the toughest chivalry and the warmest tenderness in a lawless age, with nonstop thrills and no dull moments. It’ll leave you breathless!
