Having muddle-headedly transmigrated into this world, the protagonist has no choice but to navigate its myriad people, events, and things as he fights for his fate, his beliefs, and his dreams.

Flames along the frontier rage through the seventh month; a mighty dragon is trapped on the Mengyang shoal. Swords flash through the air as frost blankets the sky; three thousand splendors fade before the chill of Yishui. I would sooner forsake the sacred mountain than forsake you, though youthful beauty soon grows old.

On the Bridge of Helplessness, Meng Po offers her soup; across the river bloom the flowers of the other shore, beside the heartbroken grass. Like a dust-covered night, Song Rujue sails the boat of cause and effect through past and present lives. A mighty drunken spree... (This refers to bonus chapters.)
