The old Rong Guo, the Jianghu's all-knowing oracle, once foretold: "No one can rival the Autumn Water Sword Style. The greatest under heaven is in Jiangnan!" Before his prophecy could come true, someone sealed his throat with a single sword.
One prophecy, two sealed letters, and the Autumn Water Sword Style quietly enters the world. The Liu family of Jiangnan rises to power! Who is pulling the strings behind it all?
One hundred and eighty years ago, Mo Ming, a peerless genius of his age, became famous throughout the world for his Heaven-Seeking Sword. His swordsmanship was unmatched. One hundred and eighty years later, the Heaven-Seeking Sword quietly reappears in the Jianghu. A young man and a Heaven-Seeking Sword draw out all the retired masters.
A Jianghu that has been quiet for ages may just become lively again.
The story goes like this: a simple, honest boy from the mountains sets out on a perilous journey through the Jianghu because of a broken sword passed down through his family.
