Yan Qiu transmigrated as the youngest legitimate son of the Yan clan, a noble house holding the title of Lord of the Pass. He became a delicate, frail beauty, like a glass lamp that might break in the wind. In a family full of burly, battle-hardened men, he was the lone odd one out and the darling his father and brothers kept close to their hearts.
No one expected this pampered young master, raised in seclusion and spoiled beyond measure, to choose a young servant from among the military slaves and set his eyes on a savage wolf.
The wolf's ferocity was untamed. He could turn on his master.
Xie Qian was a mixed-blood Hu, commonly called a half-breed. Some said he was born to be a slave. Even his own father had never treated him like a person, just like his Hu name, Mengman, which meant "slave."
But Xie Qian refused to accept his fate. How could kings and generals be born to different stock? He refused to believe he was destined to be a slave all his life. So when the beautiful young master, who could crush his throat with the slightest movement, chose him as a servant, Xie Qian thought his chance had come.
The beauty was fair-faced and ruthless, skilled at taming beasts.
Before Yan Qiu turned seventeen, nobody knew how "black" his heart was. Xie Qian did.
Before Xie Qian turned fifteen, nobody knew how "ruthless" his hand was. Yan Qiu did.
The Zhaoyuan Rebellion came. The Yan clan was destroyed, and Yan Qiu and Xie Qian's childhood as close companions came to an end. Their struggle for dominion over the land was only just beginning...
Yan Qiu: Who do you think will rule the world?
Xie Qian: I would offer you the whole realm as my betrothal gift and spend a lifetime by your side.

Theme: Two minds are better than one. As long as they trust each other, even if the whole world slanders and turns them against one another, nothing can tear them apart. Sincerity is what matters most.
