Zhao Xiang fought on the battlefield for six years, becoming a genuine top-tier soldier king. Carrying old injuries, he chose to leave the military and return to the city.
Everyone thought the greatest concern in his life was his younger brother, Zhao Ji, who had been found in the mountains and seemed like an honest, ordinary young man.
To outsiders, the older brother was always the one who gave everything to shield his younger brother from danger and protect his peaceful life.
But no one knew that the younger brother, who had disappeared after falling into a ravine years ago, had been rescued by a reclusive master. After seven years of grueling ancient martial arts training, he had become a hidden God of War of terrifying strength.
His older brother took action openly, battling criminal forces and fending off foreign assassins, and was driven to the brink of death more than once.
Each time disaster seemed inevitable, he somehow escaped unharmed. It wasn't luck at all: his younger brother was acting from the shadows.
The seemingly ordinary young man secretly dealt with assassins at night and eliminated threats, quietly keeping his brother alive.
As one conspiracy after another came to light, Zhao Xiang learned that their parents' deaths and the brothers' separation had been no accident.
The brothers finally laid everything on the table and joined forces, one operating in the open and the other in the shadows. Military strategy against peerless ancient martial arts: they took down corrupt conglomerates, wiped out cross-border mercenaries, exposed traitors within the country, and hunted down the mastermind.
United as brothers, they swept aside every enemy and climbed to the pinnacle of power and strength in the world.
