Chiye Longhuang, a land of bitter cold.
When Shen Yan awoke, he was lying naked in the snow: a gift from the southern aristocracy to the northern “barbarians,” commonly known as a two-legged sheep.
Helian Lie, the man who took him in, was the strongest warrior in Longhuang. Cold and hard as iron, he had a five-year-old daughter and felt nothing for his late wife.
The frozen wasteland was bitterly cold, and the tribe was on the brink of extinction. Shen Yan used modern knowledge to teach them how to farm, build longhouses, and smelt steel, bringing greenery to this land abandoned by the gods for the first time.
The man who never held his daughter began awkwardly learning how to be a father. The warrior who had been indifferent to his late wife, meanwhile, cherished Shen Yan with all his heart...
“She’s someone I have to raise. You’re someone I... want to raise for the rest of my life.”
The day war broke out, the three of them clung tightly to each other.
Sixty years later, summer had come to Longhuang.
This is the story of three people with no blood ties who built a home together over the course of a lifetime, on a land abandoned by the gods.
