Ying Donglai, after defeating his lifelong nemesis in a battle at Tianxiang Garden in Luoyang, retreats into seclusion due to severe injuries. Yet, the chaotic times and the destiny of a legendary swordsman force him to leave his hiding place, compelling him to embark on another journey of battle. This time, his destination is far beyond the borders in Tibet. On the other hand, Xiang Qing, a figure of the chaotic era, vows to defy fate and challenge destiny. He faces the incoming 600,000 of the Han King Chen Youliang with a mere 100,000 troops at the Poyang Lake. A rare large-scale naval battle in Chinese military history erupts on the vast waters of China.
With unparalleled martial arts skills and extraordinary wisdom, can Xiang Qing turn the tide of battle? Will the Xiang family's extraordinary hero, who once used the empty fort strategy to repel enemy troops, recreate the Battle of Red Cliffs? Amidst the encirclement of powerful enemies, Zhu Yuanzhang's ambition to dominate the world burns fiercely. The second volume of this epic tale of heroic legends begins.
