In the twenty-seventh year of Da Yinjinghe, a pack of wolves fled into the official road, and the strange beasts in the mountains reappeared. The dynasty that lasted for more than three hundred years also came to an end.
Seventeen-year-old Lu Zhao is just a military herdsman raising horses in Shuozhou Jumayi. I thought my biggest wish in this life was just to have a full meal and protect my grandfather, but because of a skinny horse that no one wanted and a copper bell with an animal pattern left by my mother, I accidentally came across the long-lost skill of Si Yu in controlling beasts.
From understanding the hearts of beasts and controlling alien species, to joining the border army, guarding isolated cities, and leading cavalry; from a herdsman to a prince in troubled times.
When the flames of war burned across the nine states, aristocratic families were divided, heroes rose up, and strange beasts from the mountains and seas returned to the world, Lu Zhao realized that it was never the beasts that were truly difficult to control, but the crumbling world.
