Shen Du smiled.
"Sir, please accept the money. Someone is coming to rob the execution ground today."
——The knife stopped.
From a death row prisoner to the number one killer of the Shadow Sect, from a court official to the blade of the empire. He doesn't need a knife, he only needs to look at you to know what you are afraid of, what you are hiding, and where you want to go next.
He thought he was playing chess.
Until someone told him: you are not the first. Someone came thirty years before you, and—he has been waiting for you.
