After his father is mysteriously murdered, Lin Ye returns from studying abroad overnight to take over the Star Society.
Outside, rival gangs watch hungrily. Within, the five hall leaders each have their own schemes, while the four elders pay lip service and secretly defy him.
Just as he thinks it is all nothing more than a gang feud, a woman with the “Eye of Truth” tells him: Your enemies are not human.
Informants, assassinations, betrayal, the destruction of his family… Lin Ye proceeds cautiously, wiping out his enemies in a bloody purge.
Then one day, the lights across an entire city go out at once, and something crawls out of the darkness.
