Synopsis

When he was seven, he watched all 372 members of his family die before his eyes. His father stuffed him into a dry well and used his last breath of vital energy to protect his heart meridians. He said two words: “Stay alive.” Fifteen years later, he became the most taciturn swordsman in the martial world. A broken sword hung at his waist, and it had not left its sheath in three years. He had just three words for anyone he met: “You deserve to die.” Then his sword flashed, and his victim fell. But no one knew who he was hunting. No one knew what he had endured during those three years. All they knew was that every so often, someone would die by his sword. Every victim had some connection to the massacre that had destroyed his family fifteen years ago. Then he met her: the young lady of the Sunset Glow Manor, who bore a family secret even she knew nothing about. Then he drew ever closer to the truth hidden deep in the shadows. He thought he was hunting a demon. But the truth was crueller than he had imagined: that demon had once been a boy whose entire world had been crushed by fate, too. And now, with the broken sword in his hand, he was walking step by step toward an ending he had never imagined. Beneath the setting sun, he stood alone. That fading light was the last warmth he had left, and his final shackle.
