In the Tranquil Sun province of the empire, there exists an unremarkable lordship known as Snow Eagle Territory! This is the home of the Dong Bo clan, the clan of our hero Xue Ying! His father, a commoner turned noble; his mother, a noble who abandoned her clan for love, and his brother, an innocent toddler. But peace cannot last forever, Xue Ying’s peaceful life is shattered, and the only way to reclaim it is through power!
Xue Ying wasn’t one to be afraid of death.
From a young age, he had always treated himself ruthlessly. For his brother’s sake, he even dared to enter the Mountain Range of Desolation to kill beasts! His temperament was formed when he was a teenager and had not changed at all. His heart, all the way down to its innermost part, was as sharp as a blade; he always did things decisively even if that meant having to disregard himself. Even in this life-or-death situation, he remained calm and had yet to give up on a chance of survival. But even so, he was vaguely aware in his mind that this time around, it really might be too difficult for him to escape!
His parents had his little brother to take care of, who had long since become mature; Xue Ying wasn’t worried for him. Instead, he felt that the person he owed the most to was Jing Qiu!
