Everyone says Chen Ye is a pushover, someone anyone can take a shot at.
His repeated attempts to give way only bring him more and more abuse. One rainy night, a vicious insult against his mother shatters the last of his gentleness, and the honest man draws his blade.
He enters the turbulent underworld, gathers brothers around him, and survives countless traps and deadly schemes. From a fugitive hiding in the back alleys, he rises step by step to build a vast business empire.
Sharing hardship is easy. Sharing success is much harder. The brothers who once fought side by side grow estranged in the face of wealth and power, turning against one another.
Underworld blood feuds, battles between black and white, and the powerful joining the game.
A blade forced into his hand struggles desperately between loyalty and desire.
