I adore you, oh! You do not know."

~From Song of the Yue Boatman

—

Hundreds of rivers converge, the thousand-mile rise of Taishan’s bluffs, and a myriad of waves surge in the Eastern Sea.

All beneath the heavens, is the extent of the ruler’s land. All within the territory of a state, are each the ruler’s subjects.

Beacons light up all over the Divine Land, danger lurks in every corner of the State of Yong.

After reuniting with Geng Shu, Jiang Heng begins to put all his effort into assisting the ruler of Yong State’s plans, but he unexpectedly falls into perilous situations time and time again. Geng Shu, who always accompanied Jiang Heng by his side, is acutely aware that the various mishaps all appear to be closely related to Jiang Heng’s past—was Jiang Heng really his own blood-related younger brother?

These two extraordinary young men wander throughout the country from state to state, experiencing trials, however, the truth obtained uncovered a cruel and unexpected past that couldn’t be erased. The lingering heroic spirits each possess their own unfulfilled long-cherished wishes. With the great Divine Land finally unified, how would they confront their own choices of the future?

The seven stars of the Northern Sky bore witness to the end of a stormy period of history; until the ruins once again transform into the richly ornamented tall towers of a manor.

When the blazing city lights languidly flicker, those people and events worth engraving into memory, will forever be preserved within every stroke of ink in a painting of this vast expanse of rivers and mountains. <<less

Now I have to make this man my prisoner again.

It shouldn't be as easy as last life.

You need to be more perfect before the woman shows up.

First, drink some milk. Zap.

As I looked at Abby, I laughed lightly.

Then she flapped her short arms.

But then they met again.

It was at a lavish banquet.

The grand entrance swung open, accompanied by the resounding tap of a cane.

Everyone fell silent.

In the center of their gaze stood a man.

He wore a black suit, delicate gold-rimmed glasses, and held a valuable cane beneath his white gloves. His countenance exuded tranquility and authority, as if with a single gesture, he could make the entire room hold its breath.

The tapping cane stopped in front of Ruan Qiuping.

The man took off his gloves, and with his slightly cool fingertips, gently wiped away a stain from the corner of Ruan Qiuping’s lips.

In a low voice, he said, “Ruan Ruan, you promised to buy me candy.”

Every year, Yu Huan could see that man.

He appeared only once a year, but the exact day of his appearance remained unknown.

So Yu Huan prepared himself every day, presenting his best self.

He eagerly awaited his arrival.

Yu Huan: 365 days in a year, I see you for one day, and spend the other 364 days preparing to meet you.

Ruan Qiuping: Your one year is merely a day for me.

Students: There is no way, those two are definitely innocent!
