Bai Lu is used to the flashing lights, while Meng Ziyi is immersed in a sea of flowers and applause. As two of the entertainment industry’s hottest rising stars, they think they understand the world: traffic is everything, and capital rules all.
But an accident reveals a glimpse of the darkness, and two figures emerge slowly from the shadows.
One is Jun Wuhui, the Sword Emperor, clad in white with waist-length white hair. Beneath his celestial aura lies the overwhelming power to slay an ancient ferocious beast with a single strike. The other is Ye Cangming, the Blade Emperor, cold and taciturn, with a meteoric-iron Tang saber on his back. The blade in his hand turns even the fiercest monsters in China into lambs awaiting slaughter.
Tian Xiwei and the others stand frozen in place. Though they are safe now, their souls have been utterly shattered.
Behind this bizarre modern city, it turns out, a hidden organization called the Dragon Guard Hall really does exist, silently protecting the world. The Sword Emperor and the Blade Emperor, two men who seem to have stepped out of a painting, use the most brutal kind of beauty to show them the true face of the world.
They also let a faint glimmer of light from the women shine into a corner of the darkness.
They are both pawns and tests. Will they ultimately become discarded pieces on the board, or the key to changing the game? The bait has been cast and the net is set. Now it all depends on how the one holding the rod reels in the line and draws the net.
