In a desperate age ravaged by evil crimes and plagued by corruption and infighting among humanity's elite, Li Mo, a “game-breaker” with the Special Police Bureau, fights his way forward from being an outcast abandoned by his family. Born with extraordinary combat strength, he can defeat enemies of a higher level despite being mortal. Again and again, he breaks through at death's door, eventually entering the King realm.
He lives only to break through for one person.
Lin Qingyi is the bureau chief's most prized disciple, yet she is branded a “disgraced daughter” for carrying a bloodline forbidden by incestuous taboos. Her own mother, Liu Qingyi, buried her alive. She and Li Mo have been bitter rivals since childhood, but time and again, he risks his life to shield her. On the battlefield, Li Mo deliberately removes her mask and silences her tears with a kiss, because he cannot bear to see her cry again.
When Liu Qingyi brings down her murderous intent with the might of the Emperor realm, Li Mo burns through his life to unleash a brief burst of power at the peak of the Imperial realm, gravely wounding this lofty powerhouse. Right in front of Lin Qingyi, he shatters the last chain of humiliation holding her captive.
But Li Mo knows that the King realm he forced his way into is still not enough. He swears to trample every injustice and every cruel fate in this world.
From the King realm to the peak of the Imperial realm, then beyond the King realm and above the Supreme Imperial realm: Li Mo will wield the name of game-breaker, cleave open the abyss of evil, crush the rotten nobility, and forge a world for Lin Qingyi where tears are no more!
