The Blade Tempered to the Peak

One was a magic-laden, blunt-backed saber. The other was a sharp blade imbued with life and spirit. Yet both shared the same master: a young man hunted across the land!

He was a learned and widely knowledgeable merchant on one side, a ruthless, blood-and-iron madman on the other. When two such different personalities came together, they forged a supreme god of the blade...

A successful young merchant accidentally entered the turbulent, perilous jianghu, only to find himself on the run. Countless heart-pounding pursuits and bewildering martial-world conflicts failed to break him. Instead, they made him more resilient and composed. As he fled through the jianghu, his name spread far and wide, striking fear throughout the martial world.

A tragic, colorful romance, difficult and painful choices, relentless perseverance through hardship, a complex personality, and a shrewd, inscrutable mind ultimately forged his ambition to unite the jianghu and his undying, blood-and-iron legend.
