The Jiangnan rain shatters, the Shengxin Tower falls! Lu Hanzhou, a carefree young innkeeper, seeks fate aboard a pleasure boat in the rain and finds an unconscious woman. From that moment on, his easygoing days of composing poetry, brewing wine, and sleeping off a drunken stupor are changed forever. The young man rides off into the distance, leaving behind the fine wine and jade towers that fade into dust. The road ahead has a name: the martial world. What is the martial world? Some wear the cloak of a hero, yet worship “things from beyond the heavens” and treat the people of the world like weeds; Some wear the face of a demon, yet uphold “the values of civilization” and wield their swords to clear the names of wronged dead; When sword energy splits the sky, so-called heroes and so-called deep affection are nothing but trapped pieces struggling on fate's chessboard. “You taught me that the greatest taboo for a player moving the pieces is to grow attached.” She gave a sorrowful smile, pressing a dagger to her heart with an abyss behind her. “You don't know that when a chess piece develops an obsession, it can crack the board!” The young and the bold finally become a prairie fire; as jade figures intertwine, the true face of the martial world is revealed. Young hero, wait a moment. Come witness the interwoven jade shadows, and join us in writing an immortal legend of chivalry!
