On the day he is released from prison, He Yanzhi steps outside its gates. In his previous life, he was the eldest legitimate grandson of the He family, framed by his half-brother and imprisoned for ten years. His mother died with her name unjustly tarnished, and the family fell into enemy hands.
Now he has returned, armed with lethal combat skills and a shrewd mind. He conceals his strength and plays the pig to eat the tiger. The wealthy families of Jiangzhou are locked in endless power struggles, while He Mingyuan rules with unchecked arrogance.
He turns the streets into a chessboard, rebuilding his old network with one hand and settling scores with his enemies with the other. He makes a name for himself in underground fights, wins the loyalty of the Shadow Dragon Guard, exposes financial corruption, and seizes power at a shareholders' meeting.
From a fallen dragon returning to the depths to a force just beginning to reveal its edge, he vows to shatter this cruel world with a single punch.
