Lin Wanqiao, a young man from the 21st century, became an apprentice and trained through a chance encounter. After completing his training, he entered Han with only his sword. Korea was in turmoil, with dangers lurking at every level: the incompetent and ineffectual King An of Han, displaced commoners, the Violet Orchid Pavilion, which had sprung up out of nowhere, and the General's Estate, entrenched like a tiger... The young man held fast to his pride, yet for the woman he loved, he could be as calm as still water. He once stood silently in the pouring rain, holding an umbrella over Yan Lingji, who had lost everything. He also once faced Ji Wuye with his sword drawn, for Nongyu and Bai Feng... This world is cruel, and sometimes heartless. So why turn away from love?
