Ten years in Hexi, a sickly frame concealing a sharp edge.
Su Yan, master of the Vast Sea Tower.
A single prediction spread throughout the land: Whoever gains the Vast Sea Guest can secure the Great Shuo.
The world knows only that his schemes are unmatched. No one knows that beneath his frail exterior lies the bloody, unjust case of the one hundred thousand soldiers of Wild Goose Return Valley.
Dark currents churn through Luojing. Princes vie for the throne, powerful ministers weave their webs, and deadly traps lurk everywhere. Countless people want him under their command, while just as many want him dead.
Burdened by a chilling poison that refuses to heal, he enters the dragon's den alone.
He feigns allegiance to a prince, maneuvers among rival powers, and makes his moves at court.
A blade need not draw blood to topple a dynasty.
See how this ailing wanderer, chilled to the bone, plays black and white with a steady hand, seeking belated justice for the souls of the one hundred thousand buried beneath the yellow sands.
Quietly, dust settles over hidden bones; alone, beneath a solitary lamp, he faces Luojing's frost.
He has seen every twist and turn beneath the skies; deep within the Vast Sea, there is Su the Scholar.
