Rumor has it that Fu Ying, the Clearbright Lord of Changji Prefecture, is a terrifying fiend who can stop children from crying at night.
Rumor has it that Feng Yi, the Dark Immortal of Qiming Tower, is a sinister, treacherous villain who stops at nothing.
A conspiracy from the martial world is quietly unfolding at court, and Fu Ying is ordered to investigate the truth. Just then, Feng Yi, the Dark Immortal who fled Qiming Tower, arrives in the capital.
For their own reasons, the two men from opposing factions become colleagues. These two notorious figures of the martial world find that they have a great deal in common after all.
Both hide ulterior motives and scheme against each other. Bloody cases unfold one after another, while buried history comes to light. The martial world is on the brink of turmoil, and the court hangs in the balance.
All that remains is for Changji to bring clarity.
Many years later, someone asks Feng Yi what the Clearbright Lord is really like.
Feng Yi thinks for a moment, then smiles. “Fu Ying is a pretty good guy.”
“Anything else?”
Feng Yi thinks again. “He’s pretty handsome.”
Theme: May Changji’s hopes be fulfilled, and may clarity reign throughout the land
