Lu Li once ruled the Black Prison as the youngest warden, but he was framed as a prisoner after discovering the empire's dealings with alien species. Five years of torture allowed him to awaken the power of time and space rifts. On the day he was released from prison, Imperial Marshal Xavier knelt down in public and begged him for forgiveness - because he was the only one who could reverse the survival of mankind. However, Lu Li wanted revenge and even more so, he wanted to reveal the buried truth. His lover Ella Nova has long been under house arrest by the empire, and the mysterious prisoner Old K holds the secret to the free star field. When the alien army approaches his home planet, Lu Li is forced to choose between personal hatred and the survival of civilization, but the empire's conspiracy goes deeper than imagined.
