While traveling through Jiangnan, the young Marquis Luo ran into danger. A passing swordsman saved him, and Luo promptly became inseparably attached to his rescuer.
He followed the man around with a beaming smile, loudly proclaiming his benefactor's unmatched martial arts wherever they went. He covered all their expenses as they roamed the martial world, and showered him with pearls and precious swords as if money were no object.
If his benefactor wanted a meal, Luo would clear out the restaurant. Even when the man went to drink with courtesans, Luo would practically snatch the pipa from them and play for him himself.
The swordsman had always kept a low profile. He never expected his kindness to be repaid with such relentless devotion, but there was no shaking the young man, so he could only ask:
"Which family's young master are you? Why do you keep running around outside?"
Luo Chunshi answered with a grin:
"Because someone once told me, 'Jiangnan is lovely.'"
He couldn't remember who had said it. He was simply born restless, and would seize on any excuse to get away from home.
The bitter, vengeance-driven swordsman turns out to be a royal uncle who faked his own death!
When the regent is targeted for assassination, the swordsman races north through the night to protect him. Luo Chunshi takes his devotion to the extreme and follows close behind.
Along the way, they meet countless strange people and encounter all kinds of extraordinary events, witnessing more peerless martial arts than they could ever learn:
A mysterious Thief Saint who never shows his face; a blind imperial merchant richer than a kingdom; a reclusive miracle doctor who delights in cursing the nation; and the former dynasty's Empress Dowager, whose remarkable sword technique is "passed down to women, never men"...
The martial world is vast, but there's no room for all its love and hate. The past is gone and can't be chased, let alone the royal family's old gossip...
Luo Chunshi only cares about fulfilling his own little wish:
To hell with status and gender, he's going to bring his lifesaving benefactor home.
