The homeless Situ Ming is barely clinging to life beneath a bridge when a coldly beautiful young woman forcibly takes him away. She insists that he is her father, the former master of Dragon King Hall. Once a powerful figure who dominated the underworld and was revered by thousands, he is now a good-for-nothing who reeks of rot and can’t even snatch a steamed bun from a dog. With his memories gone, he can hardly believe her.
The girl, Situ Nian, leaves him no choice and takes him to Dragon King Hall, an underground fortress of steel. The reverence of his former subordinates, the covetous gaze of his old rival Qin Wudao, and the restless ambition of the elders within the organization all converge on him. As he grows closer to his daughter and clashes with his old rival, the power sleeping within Situ Ming gradually awakens, and fragments of his shattered memories keep resurfacing.
He resists his sudden new identity, yet his daughter’s determination and devotion move him. The homeless man who only wanted to return to his shelter beneath the bridge slowly takes on his responsibilities. Faced with Qin Wudao’s schemes, the threat of a new organization called Heavenly Retribution, and his daughter’s hopes, the amnesiac Dragon King will finally awaken. In his daughter’s name, he will keep her safe, protect the peace of Dragon King Hall, and continue his legend.
The story blends the tender bond between father and daughter with the bloodshed of the underworld. Amid its absurdity and fiery action lies a deeply moving tale of protection and redemption.
