[Triumphant crime saga] + [Underworld vendettas] + [Multiple heroines] + [Decisive and ruthless] + [Absolutely no bleeding-heart heroics]
Li Erniu, a decorated soldier who spent ten years guarding the border, returns to Guancheng after leaving the military to fulfill a fallen comrade’s last wish: deliver his compensation money to his fiancée, Fang Ting.
On a rainy night in an urban village, he comes across Sixth Sister-in-law, Qiu Manlin, surrounded by thugs, her loved one’s ashes being trampled underfoot. He had planned to retire quietly, but fury takes over. He single-handedly wipes out more than thirty gangsters, only to be dragged into the underworld’s conflicts.
Brother Five puts a citywide bounty on his head. Fang Ting repays his kindness with betrayal, and the Hunan Gang, led by Hong Jiutian, comes after him in full force. Alone, he sweeps through Guancheng’s underworld, protecting Qiu Manlin amid blood and fire, and finding a new home along the way.
