The Legend of Sword Intent

The nameless assassin of Shadowstill Manor has completed two hundred missions without a single failure. But after one defection, he becomes the target of the entire organization.

He has killed many people, yet has never lived for himself. That changes when he meets the young woman who cooks porridge for him in an abandoned temple, the master who passes on his inner power and dies with a smile, and the ordinary people who treat him like family instead of a tool. He has honed his Heartless Swordsmanship to its very limit, yet gradually comes to understand that true strength does not lie in cutting off all emotion and desire. It lies in turning love, sorrow, anger, and tenderness into a flash of light along the blade.

When the foreign fiend Luo Shaluo massacres the martial world of the Central Plains, defeating even Jian Huang Cheng Feng, the nameless man finally draws that sword.

"This sword is filled with feeling."

A story of an assassin's redemption, of a clash between heartlessness and feeling, and of how a cold-blooded man learns to live.
