Jiang Li bears a deadly fate. While seeking the truth behind it, he meets Sikong Mo. One is cold, the other warm, and they unexpectedly discover that their essences are opposites, like ice and fire, yet both originate from the same source. As long as Sikong Mo is by his side, Jiang Li can cling to life even when only a sliver of his fate remains.
When he met the one he loved, he missed his chance and hid away in a dark corner to nurse his wounds. But when he met Sikong Mo, he secretly kept his hair ribbon and fell into his gaze, unable to pull himself free.
Only after cleaving open the Tianqiong Mountains of the Western Regions did he discover that the deadly fate he bore was nothing more than an order issued by his true self, Sikong Mo. To escape his true self’s control and win his freedom, Jiang Li finally stands against Sikong Mo.
Freedom remains far out of reach, and his homeland is gone. Then he will seize it, fight, and take it back for himself. Thus he becomes his true self’s blade of slaughter.
