[Free-spirited "madman" martial arts heir | Gentle, scheming royal princess]
Neither of them ever expected that, on the lives they were supposed to lead in isolation and hardship, they would find someone to walk alongside, confide in, and even trust with their backs.
The Great Yin Dynasty is struck by a coup. Xie Zhixu, a princess in distress, is ambushed while fleeing and fights with all her might to escape the trap. Just as she's about to run out of strength, Liu Linfeng, a down-and-out heir of a martial arts family, arrives like a timely rain and fights by her side.
Since they're headed to the same destination, or perhaps because he saved Xie Zhixu's life, the two strike a deal and travel south together. During an idle chat, they discover that in some way, their blood feuds may be tied to the same person.
After making their way to their destination by every means possible, learning the whole truth, and once again coming under attack, the two refuse to sit back and wait for death. They set out for the capital, determined not only to avenge their families, but also to deliver justice for the people.
