[Two male leads] [Both powerful] [Older man/younger man] [Reunited after a breakup]
He is a monk from the Wuxiang Temple, a flickering lamp of a man with white silk over his eyes and bloodstained prayer beads in his hand. He follows the Asura path of killing to protect life, all to avenge his family’s murder.
He is Lu Ye, a petty thief who clawed his way up in the Ghost Market, swaggering and rough around the edges, with a shocking secret about a deposed crown prince from the previous dynasty. All he wants is to survive this chaotic world.
One rainy night, Lu Ye breaks into the Wuxiang Temple by mistake and is forced to sign a “contract of servitude,” becoming the blind monk’s errand boy.
He thinks he’s a little rabbit who has wandered into a wolf’s den. He doesn’t know that beneath the monk’s cold, heartless exterior lies a man who has planned every step to keep him safe.
From the teeming Ghost Market to the imperial tombs of the previous dynasty, from testing each other to sharing life and death.
“Monk, in our next life, you can be a monk again, and I’ll be a thief. How about it?”
“Fine, but next time, you’ll have to pay back the three taels of silver first.”
The Asura path dispels delusion, and the dragon veins shake the heavens. See how a blind monk and a petty thief turn this chaotic world upside down.
