In the twenty-fifth year of the Great Yong Dynasty's peace, the fireworks in the sky during the Lantern Festival became a scar that the Knights Alliance could never heal.
The number one killer under the regent, "Blood Hand" Yama, arrived. In order to protect Shen Jingque, the girl Xie Qinghuan, who was always as bright as the little sun, blocked the master-level palm with her flesh and blood, and died in the peach blossom forest.
That night, Shen Jingque closed his best friend's eyes with his own hands, and buried the smiling self in the sun with his own hands.
She pulled out Xie Qinghuan's fierce sword "Duan Nian" which had never been unsheathed during her lifetime. From then on, there was no more beautiful girl in the world, only a half-dead body tempered by despair and hatred.
However, the fate of fate did not stop there.
The regent retrieved the beggar orphan "Xiao Jiu" from the swamp of the slums, who had been favored by Shen Jingque for a meal, named her "Xie Jiu", and personally forged her into a poison-quenching blade.
When the benefactor who handed over the sweet-scented osmanthus cake in the past became a mortal enemy who must draw his sword against him now; when the girl struggling in the muddy water was forced to put on gorgeous clothes and became the "Secret Fragrance Princess" who stabbed Shen Jingque——
An extreme tug-of-war in the name of "love" and "hate" quietly begins amidst the light and shadow of swords.
"The seed you planted back then has grown into a man-eating tree."
"I won't kill you. I will lock you up in a place where only I can see you, so that you can only look at me forever."
When Xie Jiu, with his hands full of blood and his heart full of despair, finally pulled down the plain white net;
When Shen Jingque no longer dodges, and truly grasps the sword of "breaking thoughts" at the critical moment of life and death——
The remnants of the Knight Alliance will reunite in the ruins.
They want to cut off this human-eating cage in the hands of the powerful regent and seek a clean tomorrow for their dead old friend.
Intention: "They died in the eleven most tragic ways, just for him to be alone in this cold court, guarding the awe of the civil and military officials of the court, and to be a lonely soul who will never be reincarnated."
