Five years ago, the Lu family mansion in Jiangcheng burned to the ground overnight. The blood debt of the entire family was buried beneath layer upon layer of power and influence.
Lu Zheng narrowly escaped death and spent five years drifting overseas.
No one knows that the orphaned survivor of the Lu family has become a powerhouse in two different worlds. He commands a multinational business empire, excels at the game of capital, controls overseas underworld forces, and is a formidable fighter in his own right.
To uncover the truth behind the old case and settle his scores, he hides his full strength and returns to Jiangcheng undercover as an ordinary young man looking for work.
There, he meets Lin Wanwan, the daughter of a loyal family retainer. She works her way through school, remembers her father's debt of gratitude, and hopes to find a job to support the fallen Lu Zheng.
To infiltrate the inner circle of his enemies, Lu Zheng enters Jiangcheng's corporate world. He navigates executive power struggles and covert project battles while secretly gathering clues about the massacre.
He brings overseas capital to bear against his enemies' publicly listed companies, dismantling the foundations of their businesses. When the underworld gets in his way, he breaks through with force, pursuing the blood debt step by step.
In a cruel twist of fate, Su Qingwan, the woman he loves deeply, is the daughter of the very family that destroyed the Lu family. She is torn between her family's interests and her own feelings.
On one side is a sea of blood and vengeance, with wealth and force as his weapons. On the other is a love etched into his bones, with the woman he loves born on the opposing side.
The young master returns to the city to collect his debts, and to claim love. With a sea of blood before him and his beloved among his enemies, every choice leaves him torn.
