First year of Tianyuan. A new emperor takes the throne, and the realm is in turmoil.
Wen Lang, senior disciple of Wangxian Valley, the greatest sect in the world and one that never meddles in worldly affairs, suddenly turns against her sect. Ten days later, she appears in the capital, a place the sect's rules strictly forbid anyone from entering.
She assumes a false name and opens a small clinic, thinking she can stay out of the world's affairs from then on. But trouble keeps finding her. While investigating a mysterious kidnapping, Wen Lang rescues an intriguing con artist from the martial world.
He claims to have been her childhood friend and speaks with familiar ease, yet can't even say when or where they last met.
Taking in a down-and-out con artist from the martial world is no different from raising a puppy. Keep him alive and give him a little sweetness, and he'll do everything he can to prove his worth to his master.
Sure enough, with his astounding divination skills, Rong Sheng clears away all the obstacles clouding her path ahead.
The court and the martial world are roiling with undercurrents. Remnants of enemy nations harbor sinister schemes, while the sect's deepest secrets are watched from both the shadows and the light. Fortunately, she has a capable assistant at her side. Wen Lang thinks that even this journey through a mountain of blades and a sea of fire is worth taking.
But she never imagined that an unseen hand in the shadows would move every piece she played onto a dead-end path.
He says that fate cannot be defied.
Wen Lang replies, "So what?"
Then she'll tear fate to pieces and fight for one more night of peace for the people of this world.
