[The pace is slow at first, then quickens after the story returns to the Hong Kong underworld.]
After his soul transmigrates to Hong Kong in 1983, Xu Pingsheng wakes up in a cattle shed used by human traffickers in Sai Kung, naked and waiting to be slaughtered, surrounded by wolves in human skin.
The System of Redemption for the Guilty sounds righteous and noble, but its true purpose is to eradicate evildoers.
Trapped in a den of cannibals, he can only pretend to be mad, play along with a gang of vicious criminals, secretly ally with Skinny Monkey, and gamble his life on a barrage of lies.
After escaping from hell, he returns to the Hong Kong underworld.
He becomes close with Keung, moves between the legitimate and criminal worlds, and makes plans across the pharmaceutical, entertainment, real estate, and financial industries.
In time, he becomes a partner courted by numerous countries, and a target on the assassination lists of countless factions.
The world sees only his immense wealth and power, unaware that he repeatedly puts his life on the line to deliver the “redemption” those demons lurking in the world deserve.
