This is a story about a brother who intends to rebel and his brother, who plays the pig to eat the tiger, setting out to find their mother. (Their mother is having a great time dodging them. Anyway, she's left them clues, so good luck, you two!)
This is a story about the tangled forces of the martial world fighting openly and scheming against one another in secret. (Meow meow meow? Weren't they supposed to fight whenever they met? Why are they actually so close in private? Damn it!)
This is a story about real plots and fake plots, real rebellions and fake rebellions, and seeing a performance through to the end. (Why are your relationships so complicated? It's exhausting.)
But first and foremost, it's a (pseudo-)ensemble novel.
Shen, utterly bewildered: What the hell? Who stole my protagonist's salary?? (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
Shen Qing, who has been self-appointed as the protagonist only to get almost no screen time, is on the verge of tears and desperately hopes to rise from serfdom and become the boss.
Yi, looking completely innocent: You're just the first character to appear. I never said you were the protagonist.
(Author taps the blackboard.) The following points are very important!
The heart of this story: tangled love and hatred that can never be unraveled.
The real beginning: What happens when a young man with beautiful dreams suffers a blow? ( ? )
The hidden route: You mustn't covet your friend's wife.
What runs through the whole story: A mess of identities, life-and-death struggles, and misdirection.
Yi, shrugging: There are so many characters. That's not my fault. I just want to quietly be a beautiful young girl (not).
